Wisdom For The Day Devotional 24 October 2024 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Dare To Believe
TOPIC: Dare To Believe (TREM Devotional 23 October 2024)
“Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth” – Mark 9:23 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
Today, I want to dare you to believe God for anything. Is God ready to bless you? The answer is YES. In fact, God is not ready to bless you; He has already blessed you. He has blessed you with every blessing you need (Eph.1:3). Remember, the spiritual controls the natural. So, if you have all spiritual blessings, the physical blessings will follow. That is how it works. Every blessing you need is available; what can you believe God for?
Many today are struggling and toiling every day to make ends meet. But the Word declares that you’re an heir of God and a joint heir with Christ. You have an inheritance in Christ, who owns the world and everything in it. The Bible says, “The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein” (Psalm 24:1). The world belongs to God and by relationship, being His heir, all things belong to you; therefore, you need not struggle. Can you dare to believe this?
The Bible says Abraham “…staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God” (Romans 4:20). How did his wealth come? The Bible says God blessed him: “…I will bless thee and make thy name great, and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed” (Genesis 12:2-3). And Abraham believed God.
I challenge you in the same way to believe God today. Take time to read and meditate on Genesis 13:2, Genesis 24:5, and Galatians 3:9, and let them come alive in you. Find all the scriptures that talk about your heritage in Christ. Believe them, hook, line and sinker. Declare them daily over your life and see your life turn in the direction of the word, for as a man thinks in His heart, so he is.
