TODAY'S READING: 1 Timothy 4:1-16
TOPIC: THE POWER TO BECOME
TEXT: John 1:12 (KJV) "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:"
The Bible says as many as received Him has been the power to become the sons of God. In other words, only those who receive Jesus as Lord have the power to become God's children. Your father or mother cannot make you a child of God. Your age or your good works are also insufficient. The power, authority and ability for anyone to become a child of God only comes through Him. No wonder the Lord Jesus said, "No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him..." John 6:44.
The Lord Jesus said to Peter and his brother Andrew, "Follow me and I will make you..." This means He has the power to make you successful and prosperous. David said, "He maketh me to lie down in green pastures". Psalm 23:2 referring to God's ability to prosper you and bring you into the land of superabundance.
If you have already received Jesus as Lord of your life, happy are you! This is because you no longer have to struggle to be rich, healthy, successful or victorious in life. He has already made you, just operate in the covenant.
PRAYER
O Lord, My Father, from this day, I shall operate in the covenant...
