BREAD Of LIFE– Transforming Lives With The Word of God
Follow these seven day devotion prayerfully and be transformed, for faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God in Jesus Christ's name. Amen.
DAY 1
LET YOUR YES BE YES, AND YOUR NO BE NO
But as God is faithful, our word to you was Yes and No.”
2 Corinthians 1:18
What is our daily conversation like as Christians? This question is a test to us. Do we tell lies and say we are joking as some do? Do we call good things bad and bad things good? In today’s language, you hear “cool” when people of the world (and sadly some Christians) are addressing something that is immoral, sin, wicked etc. You hear "wicked" when they mean something is "good"etc. The Bible says it is a “woe” to one who does this.
“Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who put darkness for light, and light for darkness; Who put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah 5:20 -
So lets see the definition of "woe" so that we become careful and walk away from this and every form of evil.
WOE- Defined online :
noun 1. grievous distress, affliction, or trouble 2. an affliction: interjection
3.an exclamation of grief, distress, or lamentation.
Beloved, having gotten this definition of "woe" and an in depth knowledge, and paying close attention to the penalty or punishment (woe) that goes with this sort of sin, (and all sins need to be repented off) we better begin to repent quickly, confess our sins now and call good good and evil evil- we need to call a spirit by its name, call a spade a spade.
When we speak the truth it reveals us as children of the Truth, let us walk righteously Let us walk in obedient to God's word therefore and dwell in the earth (Ps.37:3,29) and enjoy the good of the land as promised us in Jesus Christ's name. Beloved, let us reason, be obedient children to walk away from disobedience, and heed to Godly counsel from our Father who forgives us, let's repent now in Jesus Christ's name. God's grace is provided for our weaknesses, His grace is here now, God says ("Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it. Isaiah 1:18-20 ) We become liars if we behave as described above, Christians are supposed to let our YES be YES and NO be NO. It doesn't matter who we're confronted with, we should reflect the Truth. Jesus Christ the Truth teaches "You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free, in case we didn't know earlier but now we do, so let's not use any words apart from saying yes for yes and no for no for any additional is from the devil.
“But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes,' and your 'No,' 'No.' For whatever is more than these is from the evil one.” Mt 5:37.
Beloved, let’s acknowledge our sins and pray:
PRAYERS:
‘Heavenly Father, I admit and confess my sins that I have lied and done wickedly against You, by saying yes for no and vice versa, please Merciful Father God, forgive me, my children, my spouse, forgive my love ones and all those concerning us of our sins, Lord God deliver us by the blood of Jesus Christ from any and every effects and consequences of calling good evil and evil good, Father refresh us by the Power of the Holy Spirit I ask this and receive forgiveness and restoration with thanksgiving in Jesus Christ's name, Amen.
DAY 2
DON’T BE DECEIVED!
”Then if anyone says to you, “Look here is the Christ!’ or ‘Look, He is there’ do not believe it” Mark 13:21
Jesus Christ the Holy God, The Truth, and the KING of kings,
the all knowing, all seeing, God saw and knew before the foundation of this world that today, in this period, in this time, in this dispensation, and (many generations past and upcoming), that getting to the end of the ages many will come in His name and deceive many, even if it be the very elect, and that's why we the very elect must walk in the grace God has given us, by walking in the Spirit of God; and ask for anointing of the Spirit for discernment, (Hebrews 5:14) to know, to spot what is false, deception so we can differentiate between good and evil etc walk in the Spirit always so, He the Anointed One, Jesus Christ the Truth will teach us all things. ( "But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.) 1 John 2:27.
Beloved Jesus Christ our Lord the Word of God knew that there will arise false Bishops, false Apostles, false prophets, false evangelists, false teachers, false pastors and false Christians (these are secret agents of darkness with assignment from satan and his marine powers they sneak into churches pretending to be part of us but strategically assigned to lure saints into sin, etc. These and many are assigned by the devil to deceive the world and if it be even the very elect we must be sober, vigilant and pray (and thanks to God He always makes a way of escape to deliver His from their schemes in Jesus Christ's name.) "For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an Antichrist." 2 John1:7, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matthew 7:15 -Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." Matthew 7:16-20.
THE DECEIVERS:
1) They lure people into doom, deceiving souls to make them worship satan unwittingly and bring them to hell through eloquent preaching , ear itchy preaching, and “blessing” messages, (which if you are a Christian Born Again, you are already blessed by God through Abraham ). Listener if you or your love one knows or visit's these people, the Bible warns us to run away, they're evil and have hidden motives, they are charlatans. They will promise you "blessings" which is evil money etc.
But you beloved Christian, believer of Jesus Christ you have divine Blessings, (PROMISED us of God ) they belong to us they are our inheritance from God through Abraham and handed over to us through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ...."That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith." (Gal 3:14) all you need to do is RUN, flee from those liars, and tell warn your love ones, friends to flee from them and stay in the Word, read the word of God and enjoy our benefits, as children we just have to honour and obey our Father God, obey His word, be doers of His words as He continues to daily release the promised blessings to us in Jesus Christ's name. (Deuteronomy 28:1-13, Matthew 6:33, "But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life". Mark 10:30). Glory!
2. These false preachers flood gullible, innocent people into their meetings thru occult powers, they are greedy, covetous, servants of the devil, working subtilty, they are mischievous people (Acts 13:6-10) preying on the needy, the poor, the afflicted, the oppressed the vulnerable, ignorant and making them think they are serving the Lord, (because they hear them use Jesus Christ's name, (the Bible warns they use the Lord's name in vain, Mat.15:9, Mark 7:7) "Beware of false prophets, (preachers.....) which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matthew 7:15. These false people use Jesus' name, they don't know God , they don't serve God and God doesn't know them as His servants either; they are using Jesus' name, saying lord lord in vain for their gain. Our Lord Jesus Christ said to warn us with this,
"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven". Matthew 7:21. Let us be wise.
3. They operate with powers of darkness, doing black and white magics, and calling it “miracles” there were such people in the Bible ( Acts 13:6-11, 16:16-18.) But we are not to be ignorant but test all spirit beloved, the Bible says “Test all things; hold fast what is good.”1 Thes. 5: 21. We are supposed to test whoever is “preaching.” Matthew 7:7 says we must ask so then let us ask the Holy Spirit to open our eyes to see, to give us the Spirit to discern. The true disciples of Jesus Christ preach in the Holy Spirit (1 Peter 1:12).
Jesus Christ our Lord loves us, He is the Way the Truth and the Life, let us journey this walk of faith in the Truth, let us keep this faith walk in the Spirit of God, staying connect always in Him, for He the Holy Spirit was sent to us, let us do all things in Him standing fast in the liberty God has given us through Jesus Christ and not be entangled with any yoke, any bondage of slavery which the devil roaring like lion seeking to whom he may devour, to trap people of God, let us watch and pray making time to always read and study the Bible and we shall not be deceived in Jesus Christ's name.
Finally let's be vigilant, continue to live in unity and loving and one another, loving the God Lord our Father wholeheartedly serving Him in Spirit and truth and we will not fall prey in Jesus Christ's name to the adversary the devil who is roaring like a lion seeking whom he may devour. We shall
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your word, please deliver me out of the contamination, assignment and any onslaught of the kingdom of darkness purposed to deceive and trap me,O Lord lead my steps away from the spirits of deceptions, deceit, lies and every evil powers operating against me and my love ones in Jesus Christ's name. Amen.

DAY 4
CHILD OF FAITH
By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.” Hebrews 11:11. Mother Sarah, our role model was a woman of faith. She believed. Whatever God has promised you, will surely come to pass if you believe? (2 Chronicle 20:20) It may take long than we anticipate, in fact mostly we are not even told when it shall be, but all we need to do is hope in the Lord God who has promised - we must wait in faith- we must have faith in Him.
God Almighty will never let us down. He will neither leave us nor forsake us. God created you and I to love and bless us eternally. Faith in Him will bring you laughter. – God has promised and it is established. Sarah eventually received what she believed - that she could carry her miracle seed even at an age of impossibility to man but certainly. See Sarah was created to birth Isaac among many other things
Believe in God to do all you are called to do- God has your miracle with your name– it’s waiting for faith. Believe it and take. Recognize God as your strength in all. He is the Lord our Strength.
Sarah believed God’s strength will sustain her in her old and pass pregnancy age. What ever you may be carrying that God has given you, trust Him also to strengthen you carry it through. Let’s have faith in God. God bless you child of FAITH.

DAY 6
CONTINUE TO LOVE YOUR BROTHER
“Let brotherly love continue.’’ Hebrews 13:1
The Holy Bible is God’s word, and the manual that governs humanity in excellent morality. For humanity to live in the blessedness of God, we are to read and study, obey, walk in God’s word and walk with God. We are to both walk with and live in Love, for God Himself is Love ("He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love." 1 John 4:8 ) God's commandments are therefore captioned into two golden keys namely
1) Love the Lord your God with all ....2) Love thy neighbour as thyself." We are to love one another and to continue living in love. The Opposite of love is hatred; we can see that in the case of Cain and Abel. The absence of brotherly love, drove Cain to take his own brother’s life. Today’s Bread says to “LET,” To let means, we must see to it, we must prevail, in loving our brothers because God lives in us and God is Love. Jesus Christ prevailed against the gates of Hades and death to demonstrate His love, by becoming the ransom for us. Hallelujah.- He taught us unconditional love. “Beloved, Let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love, does not know God, for God is love.” 1 John 4:7-8. Let us practice, walk the perfect love that all may see that we are the children of God. Today is our day of salvation, let’s repent, walk in the word from this day, for as the word has come so is the test also in a corner. I love you with the love of Jesus Christ. Amen.
