Worthy

By
Book-of-matt

 Then the king said to his aides, ‘Bind his hands and feet and throw him into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
 “For many are called, but few are chosen.”
(Matt.22:13-14)

Please read Matthew 22. If you are like me, you would agree that the king’s sentence is rather harsh, right? When I read this, I wrestled with it. What has he done to deserve being cast into outer darkness, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth? And then it occurred to me that being called is a function of favour but being chosen is a function of being worthy. Many are called but few are chosen. I pray that you will be part of the chosen and that you will be worthy in Jesus Name.

It is not enough to be called. Are you worthy? When you are worthy, the things of God will prosper in your hands. When you are worthy, you are able to lay hold of your destiny. When you are worthy, you are the pride and joy of your Father. Elisha was worthy. He served Elijah and he got the mantle of Elijah. When he came to Jordan [a difficult place], he smote Jordan calling on the Lord God of Elijah and Jordan parted. Elisha was worthy. Gehazi served Elisha. Elisha had double of what Elijah had and this was the mantle he gave Gehazi but the mantle did not work in Gehazi’s hands. When Gehazi called on the Lord God of Elisha, nothing happened because Gehazi was not worthy. There was nothing wrong with the mantle; there was everything wrong with the person. The problem is worthiness!

God wants you to be worthy. Are you worthy of your desired next level? I pray that you will be worthy and that you will pay the price for it, in Jesus Name.

Ladies, before you marry that man, ask yourself one question - is he worthy? To help you, I suggest you stand in front of the mirror and take a good look at yourself from head to toe. Then ask yourself, is this man worthy of this package? If he is not worthy, do not marry him. If you do, it would be like casting your pearls before swine. Remember that you are going to submit to that man for the rest of your life. He is going to call the shots for the rest of your lives together. So you better make sure that he is worthy before you say yes.  The same thing goes for the men; you better make sure that lady is worthy of the vision you are carrying. It is so important.


Prayer: Father, I pray that when You check, I will be found worthy, in Jesus Name. Amen!

Dominion Mandate Daily Devotional Thursday,March 3

By
THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

By
Open Heavens Daily Devotional Friday July 15th 2016 Memory Verse: Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure. - 1 Timothy 5:22 Bible Reading: 2 Chronicles 18:28-34 28. So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.  29. And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and will go to the battle; but put thou on thy robes. So the king of Israel disguised himself; and they went to the battle.  30. Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of the chariots that were with him, saying, Fight ye not with small or great, save only with the king of Israel.  31. And it came to pass, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, It is the king of Israel. Therefore they compassed about him to fight: but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the Lord helped him; and God moved them to depart from him.  32.For it came to pass, that, whe...

We Fail To Achieve Greatness Because We Fear Success By John Hagee

By
John Hagee Daily Devotional Thursday 11th August 2016  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.  - One reason we do not reach excellence is because of our fear of failure.  Failure is a better teacher than success.  Every great success story has its element of failure.  You have not failed until you quit; only then have you failed.  After Thomas Edison finished his 700th experiment trying to develop the electric light his assistant said, “We have failed.”  Edison replied, “No.   We have found 700 ways that will not work.  Do not call these 700 experiments mistakes; call them our education.  Now let’s keep going until we find the answer.”  Are you afraid of failure?  Then you’ll never succeed.  You’ll never stub your toe standing still.  Remember the turtle, he never gets anywhere until he sticks his neck out.  You can’t succeed if you’re not willing to risk failure. Have you failed? Get up. ...
