Wisdom For The Day Devotional 6 October 2023 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – God Sees Only Good In You
TOPIC: God Sees Only Good In You (TREM Devotional 6 October 2023)
“I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me; for I have redeemed thee.” Isaiah 44:22 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
I have come to realize from the scriptures that as a New Testament believer, God does not forget you. He will never leave you, nor forsake you. He will never abandon you. He will always be there for you. So, stop running. Rest in Him!
The book of Ephesians 1:7 says: “In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;” (Ephesians 1:7 KJV). In other words, God is saying: I have blotted your sin out. I have wiped it out. God has destroyed it as a thick cloud. He says I don’t see sin in you. I see what I have done. I see my faithfulness in you. That is why I don’t call you by how you look. I call you by what I made you. I call you blessed. I called you delivered. Let the weak say I am strong. Let the sick say I am healed. Let the poor say I am rich. God calls you a joyful mother of children. He calls the things that be not, as though they were, and they come into existence.
You must see from God’s perspective. Whenever you call yourself what the devil is doing in your life, the devil is the one speaking. You won’t catch God calling you through what you are passing through. He calls you what you will become. He says, “I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, thy transgressions, and, as a cloud, thy sins: return unto me…”
Beloved, stop running from God. Don’t hide from Him. God has redeemed you. He has not only redeemed you; He has glorified Himself in you. He has glorified Himself in your family, your marriage, your business, and your job. He sees only the good in you. He has set you free. Walk in this consciousness and expect good always.
