THE COMMAND TO GIVE
Text: Luke 6:38
By: Adeaga O. Favour
Giving is a covenant platform for receiving. It is a way to translate our desired expectations into manifestation. Luke 6:38 says when we give, it shall be given unto us in a greater measure. God's payment system involves first investing through giving among other things.
There are three ways you can project your giving which are upward, horizontal and downward. When you give upward, you go upward and when you give downward, you secure your position and immune yourself to going downward while being of blessing to those in your level is a horizontal way of giving.
Any man who desires result must avail himself of these channels. A farmer who sows automatically qualifies for a harvest. Your giving commitment at the moment may come with pains but the gains at the end cannot be quantified.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
Giving is the key to opening your channels of receiving.
PRAY:
Father, please let my giving produce bountiful harvests.

THE UNFAILING FAITH 2
Text: Hebrews 11:1-3
By: Adeaga O. Favour
To get Scriptural results, we need to go beyond just quoting the Scriptures to acting the Scriptures because it is the Scripture acted on that gets the result out. This is why James 1:25 says the doer of the word is the one that gets blessed.
For example, if the Scripture says you are healed and you actually believe it, why are still thinking of drugs or lying down for people to pity you, you've got to rise and act as though you are healed. After getting the command to come, Peter jumped out of the boat and actually walked on water!
What you've not acted out is what you've not seen. When you speak to any situation and don't doubt but believe the result is showing up, Jesus said you'll get the result, simple. Let's stop framing as if the word does not work, when we play our part, God commits to playing His own part.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
That the word didn't work for you doesn't mean it doesn't work, it only means you missed out something along the way, search and fix it!
PRAY:
Father, I receive grace for results in Jesus' name.

THE UNFAILING FAITH 1
Text: Hebrews 11:1-3
By: Adeaga O. Favour
Faith is key to Christianity, all of the things we do in the Kingdom is based on it. With it, for examples, we are saved (Eph 2:8); we receive our miracles (Matt 9:22); justified (Rom 5:1) and even connect God (Heb 11:6) among other things.
Faith is not just in the confession but in the expression, we don't just talk faith, we act faith. James 2:26 says "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also." Every person that ever got listed in the Hall of Faith according to Hebrews 11 put their faith to work and didn't just talk it.
Until we get on the go for God, the signs promised according to Mark 16:17-18, for example, will never find expression. Unfortunately, we have so many talking Christians but few acting ones and not until we act what we talk or claim to believe, we will never see the manifestation.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
If the devil can't stop you from acting faith, he definitely can't stop your result.
PRAY:
Father, grant me the boldness to act by faith from henceforth in Jesus' name.

HOW TO GET MORE FROM GOD
Text: Luke 16:10-12
By: Adeaga O. Favour
Asking God for more things is good but knowing whether we actually qualify for it or not is key. God has no problem giving more to us, His challenge is often with how we handle the little He has committed into our hands in the first place.
God's principle of giving more is dependent on our faithfulness with what we currently posses. He does not entrust more to unfaithful stewards because His resources are too precious to be wasted. When you handle the little you have well, He give more.
It is foolishness to think when we get more then we'll do better and so, allow what we currently have to suffer. Nothing gets better until we have learnt to handle what we presently have faithfully. The same principle that helps us guides handle the little effective is what we need to handle more, so failure in managing the little points to failure in handling the much.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
Faithfulness in handling the little we have qualifies us for more from God.
PRAY:
Father, please forgive me in whatever way I have been unfaithful in Jesus' name.

REDEFINING YOURSELF 3
Text: John 1:19-23
By: Adeaga O. Favour
Lack of understanding of personal identity is what makes people want to be like others. Everyone is created in a unique way and with a unique assignment, so the best way to define yourself is in relation to what you are created to fulfill.
One important thing to note about yourself is that you are not a problem looking for solution but a solution looking for problems to solve. Jesus called you the light of the world and the salt of the earth (Matt 5:13-14), both of which are used to solve problems.
It's time you began to look past what you were or are to what you can and should be. A revelation understanding of who God is gives you the proper definition of who you are since you are created in His image and after His likeness. Who God is in heaven is what He has made you to be on earth.
REFLECTION FOR TODAY:
The more you know God, the better you understand whom you are created to be.
PRAY
I refuse to live below God's standard for my life henceforth in Jesus' name.
