#SINCERE MILK: CHILDREN DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE MONDAY JULY 22, 2024BE YE HOLYKEY VERSE: “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” Romans 12:1TEXT: ROMANS 12:1-3God is holy and everything about Him is holy. The Bible makes us to understand that God is of a purer eye than to behold iniquity. This was the reason He could not behold the sins that Jesus was carrying on the cross on behalf of the whole world.                                                                                                                                                                                                        As much as God loves us and desires to fellowship with us, we need to be holy like Him as that would bring Him closer to us. The Holy Spirit is the third person in the Godhead. He is holy, He is the Holy Spirit Who cannot dwell in a dirty vessel. You must be holy if you want to receive the Holy Spirit and remain His friend. Is it possible to live a holy life here on Earth? Yes, it is very possible. This is why God commanded us to be holy. To be holy, you need to first be born again after which you will thirst and pray that God should sanctify and make you holy. Pray always, study your Bible, spend time with God and He will keep you holy in Jesus' Name.PRAYER: Lord Jesus, please help me to be as holy as You are.FURTHER READING: 1 Peter 1:15,16https://dailymanna.app

Deeper Life #161 So he fed them according to the integrity of his heart; and guided them by the skillfulness of his hands. —Psalm 78:72 INTEGRITY MEANS THE UNIMPAIRED STATE of a thing. A person of integrity speaks and acts with unimpaired faithfulness to the principles that guide his life—or, in the case of a Christian, faithfulness to his Lord. We get ourselves into tangles that compromise our integrity by not leaving things alone. If people around you make mistakes, leave them alone. Let them correct their mistakes. Our Lord seldom told His disciples when they made mistakes. They made many blunders in His presence, but He went on quietly planting truth. It never occurs to a pure and honest heart to back up what it says with evidence; yet even the person of high integrity will be met at times with suspicion. Suspicion is of the Devil. This is why we ought never to treat children with suspicion. Believe in their integrity; they will, in turn, believe in yours. Prayer Thought: Thank You for really believing in me, Lord, and allowing me the freedom to grow in grace and in the knowledge of Your Word. SUGGESTED READING: Psalm 78:1–10, 65–72

YOU are our all knowing GOD. YOU only want what is best for us for YOU are faithful in JESUS Name. Amen🙏 Bible reading for the week: Jeremiah 18-28; Ephesians 1-4 Let us never be upset when we don’t get what we may have wanted. Let’s trust that God knows exactly what we need & what would benefit us. When we fully grasp the truth that God is all-wise and has our best interest in mind, our obedience follows. (Psalm23:1-4; 32:8; 33:11; 46:10; 125:2; Prov.3:5-6; Isaiah46:9-10; 48:17; 55:8-9; Jer.29:11-13; 33:3; Eccl.3:11; Matt.6:32-33; Eph.2:10; 3:20) Let’s learn to walk by faith even when we don’t understand. Let’s submit to God’s wisdom & authority, for He truly cares for us, and He alone sees the bigger picture. #godsword #godisgood #begrateful

Convict us to completely trust in YOU O LORD our GOD and always hold on to YOUR promises in JESUS Name. Amen🙏 Bible reading today: Ezekiel 17; Hebrews 8 Trusting God is believing in His reliability, His Word, His ability & His strength. To trust God is not to ignore our feelings or to pretend that everything is okay even when it isn’t. Trusting the Lord is living a life of belief in and obedience to God even when it is difficult & challenging. (Psalm16:8; 20:7-8; 34:17-19; 55:22; 56:3-4; 62:8; 91:1-2; Prov.3:5-6; Mark5:36; 11:24; Heb.10:19-23). #godsword #godisgoodallltjetime #havefaith #forevergrateful

Here is an uncommon truth we don't talk about. I was reading a Bible-based publication and this truth hit me. I let it sink in first and applied it to myself before sharing. A time in life would come where Faith is the only resource you have. Faith is needed now more than ever in our spiritual growth and other personal aspirations. Most importantly our worship to God is nothing without Faith - HEB 11:6. The only person that can take away your Faith is You. How do you acquire Faith? ▶️ Activate your Bible Study. ▶️ Earnestly Pray for more Faith. ▶️ Engage in works of Faith - Doing things that honour God. #drivenbypurpose

SINCERE MILK: CHILDREN DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE FRIDAY JUNE 14, 2024 GIVE ME UNDERSTANDING HEART KEY VERSE: “Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad:” 1 Kings 3:9a TEXT: 1 KINGS 3:9-14 A good understanding helps someone to act right. Our Bible passage is the final part of the prayer of Solomon after he was made king over Israel. God was very pleased with his request. He then promised to answer his prayer as long as Solomon continued to love and obey Him. Solomon asked for understanding, he said understanding is the ability to separate between good and bad and be able to do or judge right. Life will be full of confusion and mistakes and one may offend many people if one does not have godly understanding. Even in school, you need an understanding heart to succeed and make progress in your academics and other life projects. You cannot please God if you do not have understanding of the way and the will of God. You must pray and ask God for understanding first, unto salvation and in all other things you want to do. PRAYER: Lord, help me to understand what Your will is and be able to act right before You. FURTHER READING: 1 John 5:18-20 https://dailymanna.app

WHICH WAY WILL WE GO? Part 8 Bill Click A PRACTICAL ‘WHAT MUST I DO?’ There is only one truly New Testament standard of what it means to be a Christian. It is inseparable from the Kingdom of God having “first” place, with the Holy Spirit having the primary role in daily life: granting divine energy, guidance and true power for being whole as Christ’s “witnesses” (Mt.6:33; Ro.14:17-18; Jn.6:63; Ro.8:13-14; Acts 1:5-8). Stop living on the second-hand spirituality of a meetings-oriented, socially-based natural understanding of ‘church.’ Stop passively listening to what others are saying about God (as well as what everyone else is doing). It goes back to the Biblical example that Yonggi Cho simply termed: “I pray, then I obey.” 1. ENTER the presence of God by honoring Him as He is: The LORD (Psa.100:1-4; Jn.4:23-24; Eph.5:14-21). 2. RECEIVE the ongoing prayer of Jesus being made to the Father and release it into the earth (Ro.8:26-27; Heb.7:24-25). 3. GET BUSY OBEYING GOD: trusting that His process for His “holy nation” as well as for the USA will not be left incomplete, because “He who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Christ Jesus” (1Pe.2:9-10; Php.1:6). 4. THEN DECLARE & DECREE God’s goodness over yourself & those around you. As Jesus said: “seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” End of message.
