FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> Be upgraded by giving self to God\u2019s word and not become a victim of wicked world.<\/p>\n

Matthew 6<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Give your self a chance, give yourself to God\u2019s way to become changed, to live life for God. In the way of God, there is deliverance and preservation. The way of God is in His word. The word will keep you and keep you to be upgraded in His word, as an overcomer in this wicked world. His word can come as a warning for one that will give self to God\u2019s word for deliverance and preservation
\nKing David was upgraded in his fellowship with God, he was able to \u201cwalk\u201d and not run \u201cthrough the valley of the shadow of death\u201d without fear. (Psalm 23:4) Are you running where you need to walk? If yes, it is time to get upgraded and not become a victim of weariness or fainting.
\nMatthew 6:19-21<\/em><\/strong> warns, \u201cDo not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> Does the word of God speak to you in this wicked world where desire always outruns possessions, no matter how vast acquisitions may grow? Word of God does not lie, engage God’s word for self-upgrading in the things of God.
\nJesus, the author, and finisher of our faith warned in Matthew 26:41, \u201cWatch and pray, lest you enter into temptation\u2026\u201d He warned again in Luke 21:36, \u201cWatch, therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0 As if the warning was not clear enough, Peter, a disciple of Jesus, also warned, \u201cBut the end of all things is at hand; therefore, be serious and watchful in your prayers.\u201d (1 Peter 4:7)<\/em><\/strong> Sincere constant and consistent watching and praying is a way of getting upgraded to be an overcomer in the wicked world of today. To watch and pray will enable and improve one\u2019s trust and hope in God.
\nJesus did not suggest fasting but identified it as a must-do by stating, \u201cWhen you fast\u2026\u201d (Matthew 6:16)<\/em><\/strong> As an acclaimed believer, fasting and humility before God get man upgraded. In the wicked world, get upgraded today; be built up in the word of God. Apostle Paul identified the need to be built up in Acts 20:32, \u201cSo now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.\u201d<\/em><\/strong> It is worthy to commit self to the word of God and be upgraded with continual prayer and to the ministry of the word.
\nLiving in this wicked world of today demands constant and consistent upgrading by seeking God. Seeking God is pleasing God. Pleasing God is to be living by the word of God.
\nBe upgraded by giving self to God\u2019s word.<\/p>\n

Prayer for today:<\/strong> Ask from God that you desire to live by giving self to His word.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
