TREASURES OF GRACE (DAILY DEVOTIONAL)
SATURDAY, 15TH JULY 2017
TOPIC: SPIRITUAL PATHOLOGY II
SCRIPTURE: 40 Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Couldn’t you men keep watch with me for one hour?” he asked Peter. 41 “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak" | Matthew 26:40-41
MEMORY VERSE: Romans 12:12
DIGGING DEEP: When the physical body is sick there are obvious signs to show for it. So it is with our spirit man. If it is sick there are obvious signs to shows. Today we will look at another obvious condition that is seen when the spirit is sick: PRAYERLESSNESS: This is a condition of partial or total inabilty to pray or commune with the Lord.
CAUSES: 1. Allowing activity replace connectivity with God: When you delight in other activities rather than spending time with God is a gradual pull into backslidding. Anything that can hamper with your appetite for prayer can cripple your relationship with God.
2. The presence of sin: Prayer fire can be easily quenched by the presence of sin. Sin weakens your ability to sustain Divine presence. Sin pulls you from the glory realm (Romans 3:23) which is the realm of God.
3. When we are carried away and overwhelmed by challenges of life it is possible to become drown away and become prayerless but this is what David said " I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the Rock that is higher than i" (Psalm 61:2). Jesus is that rock He is higher than any of lives challenges, higher than any issue. He has the answer. Don't allow situations take you away from God but rather let situations take you to God. Jesus was on the cross ladenned with pain, sorrow and anguish but yet He prayed, He called on the Father
( Luke 23:46).
Our anchor text says that pray we don't fall that is to says that "Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." This implies that:
a. Prayer gives us strong immunity against temptations.
b. Prayer makes the will of the Spirit more powerful than the weakness of the flesh.
Prayer does not just make you powerful but makes you stay healthy in the realm of the spirit. A prayerful christian is bouyant in the realm of the spirit because prayer builds a constant robust relationship with the Lord.
Prayer gives you regular instant contact with God and it translates into Divine impact in your life.
TREATMENT: Identify the cause. Ask the Lord for mercy if sin is the issue. Begin to practice Praying by having a regular quiet time with God.
PRAYER: O Lord i break free from anything initiating prayerlessness in Jesus' name.
QUOTE: If your craving for God is high, your act of praying will be high -Dr. Dabbas Joel
DAILY READING: Isaiah 49

SPIRITUAL PATHOLOGY
TREASURES OF GRACE (DAILY DEVOTIONAL) FRIDAY, 13TH JULY 2017
TOPIC: SPIRITUAL PATHOLOGY
SCRIPTURE: I have not departed from the command of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food | Job 23:12 (New American Standard Bible)
MEMORY VERSE: Psalm 119:11
DIGGING DEEP: Pathology deals with understanding the nature of disease and its causes, processes, development, and consequences. The spirit of a man can be sick. I mean that a person can get to a point that there is lack of fire, zeal, passion and enthusiasm for the things of God. And outrightly become a backslidder. There are alot of process that cummulnates in this whole general spiritual break down. Let us see one Pathology that cripples the spirit of a person:
LOW LEVEL AND LACK OF THE WORD OF GOD: This is a major spiritual disorder. A state whereby there is absolute absence of the love to read and study the word of God.
When this state continues one becomes low and deficient of the word of God. The lower the word of God in us, the more flesh prevails. The more the word in us the more we become like God.
The lack of the word of God in you leads to the lack of Divine instruction, lack of His instruction is high way to destruction.
TREATMENT: A. Stay with the Lord no mattter what. John 6:68 says that "Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life."
B. Build, and generate a deep love for the word of God: "I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food."
C. Give the word space to build you: Acts 20:32 "And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified."
Finally, commitment to the word of God is commitment to a change of living and this empowers the expression of God's glory in our lives. 2 Corinthians 3:18 says "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord."
PRAYER: O Lord i recieve appetite for your word in Jesus' name.
I make my spirit available to your word from today in Jesus' name.
QUOTE: To be low of the word is to be empty of God -Dr. Dabbas Joel
DAILY READING: Isaiah 48

THE POTTERS TOUCH
TREASURES OF GRACE (DAILY DEVOTIONAL) THURSDAY, 13TH JULY 2017
TOPIC: THE POTTERS TOUCH
SCRIPTURE: 1The word which came to Jeremiah from the LORD, saying, 2Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words. 3Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. 4And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it | Jeremiah 18:1-4
MEMORY VERSE: Jeremiah 18:4
DIGGING DEEP: Jeremiah was asked by God to go to the Potter's house to see the activities going on there. What does this imply?
A. The Potter's house signifies the Church or the presence of God.
B. The clay signifies members of the body of Christ.
C. The Potter is God; and
D. The activities of the potter signifies what God is doing in our lives.
LIGHT TO RUN WITH FROM OUR TEXT
1. God is doing something in our lives: We are not abandoned projects, God is up to something in our lives. God is at work producing vessels out of us.
Vessels are needed for different types of assignment. We all are meant for different assignments in the kingdom, we don't make ourselves, God makes us.
God is interested in making us. That is why He is busy building us up.
2. God does not use every clay, He uses clays that are present in the potters house: It means that it is your availability to God that determines what God will produce out of you. For instance the more a clay touches the hands of the potter, the more it is converted into a vessel.
Let me reinterate it again, the more available a clay is in the hands of the potter, the more work is done on it. The more we release ourselves to God the more He works on us. We then continously are changed into His image and we move from glory to glory.
3. God always turns clays into vessels: A vessel is one that God can pour Himself into. It is one that can carry the virtue of heaven. Clays can not.
Finally, been a clay is to be in the unrefined state but becoming a veasel is to be purified and throughly2 worked upon by God. In this state self is arrested and the life of Christ finds full expression in you.
PRAYER: O Lord work on my life and make me into a worthy vessel in Jesus' name.
QUOTE: God does not use clays that have not been converted into vessels -Dr. Dabbas Joel

ALL SUFFICIENT GRACE
TREASURES OF GRACE (DAILY DEVOTIONAL)
WEDNESDAY, 12TH JULY 2017
TOPIC: ALL SUFFICIENT GRACE
SCRIPTURE: 7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me - 2 Corinthians 12:7-9
MEMORY VERSE: Hebrews 4:16
DIGGING DEEP: Our text reveals something intresting to us. Apostle Paul had a thorn in His flesh that he had earnestly asked God to take it away from him. He had a challenge, an inadequacy, a pain, a weakness and insufficiency. God did not take the pain away but instead God supplied grace for the insufficiency. This reveals that:
1. The grace of God is the linker to all sufficiency
2. Grace is a force that pulls any kind of supernatural supplies
3. Grace can terminates insufficiencies and inadequacies in our lives.
4. Grace is never threatened by the presence of a 'thorn' but shines in it.
5. The ability to accomplish God’s tasks does not rely on our adequacy, but on God's sufficiency.
It was the discipline of God's grace that made Paul strong.
I like you to notice what God told him "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." This means that grace is the strength of the spirit. A graceless christian is strengthless. It also means that when grace arrives it overcomes imperfections and upgrades you into perfection.
Hebrews 4:16 says "Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." Grace is the answer for every need in your life. Grace is the multi faceted dimension of the operation of God.
Grace is the treatment for every deficiency in our lives that is to say that grace can be curative in effect, or prophylactic in activity.
Deficiency is what affects efficiency. But God's grace overhauls the resistance and brings God's assignment to pass through us. Two examples are Moses a stamarer, another is Isaiah with speech impairment and has low self esteem. When they encountered grace their inabilities became inconsequential.
Finally, God's grace gives stability despite your inability to accomplish Divine tasks easily.
PRAYER: O Lord i recieve grace to deal with every deficiency in my life today in Jesus' name.

PRAYER AND ANSWER
TREASURES OF GRACE (DAILY DEVOTIONAL)
TUESDAY, 11TH JULY 2017
TOPIC: PRAYER AND ANSWER
SCRIPTURE: 7 And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me - 2 Corinthians 9:12
MEMORY VERSE: Isaiah 65:24
DIGGING DEEP: The reason we pray is not because it is a religious routine, it is because we want to know God's perspective over a matter. Any matter you bring before God does not fall on deaf ears, because if it matters to you, it also matters to God. Understand that you can't anticipate answers to prayers if you don't participate in prayers.
Prayer is gaining influence over the realm of the physical by engaging God.
Apostle Paul was having a challenge which he called "a thorn" but we notice that he went to pray to God fervently and continously. We deduce therefore that prayer is:
A. A platform of expressing your pain to God: "For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me." Jabez had a thorn of curse in his flesh he called on God, Hannah had the thorn of barreness she called on God.
B. A platform where we recieve Divine counsel for the things in our lives: "And he said unto me..." His saying is the solution to your crying.
C. A link between problem and solution: "...for my strength is made perfect in weakness." There is answer and solution when you pray.
D. A place where we see beyond the problem: "Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me." Prayer changes our perspective about things. It changes you from complaining to been happy.
If you talk about the problem you are going through all the time you can't end it. But when you pray about it all the time, you are elevated above the issue and you see it from Divine perspective and not earthly perspective.
Walk with this light today:
1. NEVER TALK ABOUT A PROBLEM THAT YOU HAVE NOT SPOKEN TO GOD ABOUT.
2. NEVER QUIT NOR GIVE UP ASKING GOD.
3. SPEAK ONLY THE ANSWERS YOU HAVE RECIEVED FROM THE LORD.
It is the caller that recieves answers not the talker. Because you can talk about it and not call for it.
There are times we pray and God's answer is an emphatic No! Beloved don't be heart broken God's No is still better than your yes. And your no is inferior to God's yes.
Finally, never allow any situation stop you from praying. Prayer gives you link to grace. Grace empowers you to overcome every weakness or issues of life.
I pray for you recieve grace to overcome anything threatening your life in Jesus' name.
PRAYER: I rebuke any demonic agent sponsoring pain in my life, destiny, business, office and family now in the name of Jesus'.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN LIFE
TREASURES OF GRACE (DAILY DEVOTIONAL)
MONDAY, 10TH JULY 2017
TOPIC: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN LIFE
SCRIPTURE: Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised - Proverbs 31:30
MEMORY VERSE: Proverbs 1:7
DIGGING DEEP: What people celebrate most times are not the important things in life. To be physically beautiful but lack the fear of God is the worst deficiency in life.
What is the fear of God?
A. It is addiction to what is good and the allergy to what is evil.
B. It is allowing the laws of God to restrain our actions and intents (Genesis 42:18, Exodus 1:17).
C. The fear of the Lord is acquiescing unto God's demands and commnands.
D. To fear God is to lead considering others.
Leadership without the fear of God is what breeds oppression.
E. To have the fear of the Lord is to live and act with the consequences of eternity in view.
Attraction and favour are not the most amazing things in life but the Fear Of The Lord. To have attraction without the fear of the Lord is what causes contraction that leads to the abortion of destiny.
Life full of favour without the fear of God lacks flavor. Nothing secures a future like the fear of the Lord.
The fear of the Lord makes it easy to walk in righteousness, holiness and empowers you to live according to the standard of God, but lack of it suffocates our love to stand upright for Him.
Beauty is limited, it fades, and it is fleeting but to last, remain relevant and significant comes through having the fear of the Lord.
Finally, destiny fulfilment is connected to having the fear of the Lord. Joseph was outstanding in Egypt, he rose from prejudice to popularity, from prison to the palace, and from been controlled to the throne. He fulfilled destiny because he had the fear of God.
PRAYER: O Lord let the Your fear fill my heart today in Jesus name.

E. To have the fear of the Lord is to live and act with the consequences of eternity in view.
Attraction and favour are not the most amazing things in life but the Fear Of The Lord. To have attraction without the fear of the Lord is what causes contraction that leads to the abortion of destiny.
Life full of favour without the fear of God lacks flavor. Nothing secures a future like the fear of the Lord.
The fear of the Lord makes it easy to walk in righteousness, holiness and empowers you to live according to the standard of God, but lack of it suffocates our love to stand upright for Him.
Beauty is limited, it fades, and it is fleeting but to last, remain relevant and significant comes through having the fear of the Lord.
Finally, destiny fulfilment is connected to having the fear of the Lord. Joseph was outstanding in Egypt, he rose from prejudice to popularity, from prison to the palace, and from been controlled to the throne. He fulfilled destiny because he had the fear of God.
PRAYER: O Lord let the Your fear fill my heart today in Jesus name.

LORD DELIVER ME FROM SELF CENTREDNESS
TREASURES OF GRACE (DAILY DEVOTIONAL)
SUNDAY, 9TH JULY 2017
TOPIC: LORD DELIVER ME FROM SELF CENTREDNESS
SCRIPTURE: And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth - Genesis 11:4
MEMORY VERSE: 2 Timothy 3:1
DIGGING DEEP: There are couple of things we do and we think that God is happy or glorified with it. But the fact is that it does not even strike a cord in the realm of the spirit. Because according to the mathematical law which says that "when the premise is wrong the answer will definately be wrong. So it is with our walk with God, if our mindset is wrong we get nothing out of it.
For instance some people go on fasting just to show how spiritual they are, there are people who study Scriptures not because they love the word but to be able to intimidate others. There are equally those who serve and work hard in Church so that everyone that sees them will praise or appreciate them. There are people who sing not to bless the listeners but to show how good they can sing.
Beloved there are Pastors who are presssured into prophesying when God has not spoken or when it is not there gifting. Seeking relevance outside God is like a fish trying to live outside water.
So many to mention, but the truth is that if anything we do for God have a self undertone or attachment in it, it becomes worthless and valueless before God. Been selfless is not having a stake in what you do for God.
Our text reveals three levels of self centredness:
1. SECULARISM: "And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven..." A show of lack of regards for God and for such people God doesn't matter. They exclude God from their existence. To them what matters is what is it accepted secularly? There are preachers who are like this they support gay rights, homosexualism and others just because it is secularly okay.
2. NARCISSISM: "...and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth." It is a demonic charater of ego that says that all that matters is me. This is Thinking highly of one self and totally engrossed in the pursuit of vainglory. It is what caused lucifer to fall.
3. INDIVIDUALISM: "...and let us make us a name..." It is a habit of others don't matter so long as it does not affect you.
You must stand and weed off any form of self centredness in your life. Self centredness always have a way of drawing one against God and makes one think and do things that are anti God. Things that make you say forget God let us deal with this matter intellectually is all self centredness, self reliance and this scatters people.
I pray that self be dead indeed and Christ becomes alive in you in Jesus' name.
PRAYER: O Lord deliver me from my self in Jesus' name.
