Wisdom For The Day Devotional 3 February 2024 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – The Power Of The “IN HIM” Reality.

TOPIC: The Power Of The “IN HIM” Reality (TREM Devotional 3 February 2024)

“for in him we live, and move, and have our being;…” Acts 17:28 (KJV)

MESSAGE:

The In-Him reality enabled the Saints of old to live victoriously. When David confronted Goliath, it was because of the In-Him concept. He didn’t confront Goliath in his own strength. He confronted Goliath in the strength of the Lord. “Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel… This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand, and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; …that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.”(1 Samuel 17:45-46 KJV)

The book of Psalm 27 is a revelation of the power of the In-Him reality. “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though a host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: Though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident…For in the time of trouble, he shall hide me in his pavilion: In the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.”(Psalm 27:1-5 KJV).

There is always a hiding place In-Him. In-Him, you are preserved from anything the enemy throws at you.

Esther and Mordecai were delivered based on the In-Him concept. Daniel made it alive out of the lion’s den because he was hidden in Him. You dwell in Him.

DAILY CONFESSION

The Lord will go before me to make the crooked places straight: He will break in pieces the gates of brass and cut in sunder the bars of iron. He will give me the treasures of darkness and the hidden riches in secret places… I am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. For God has not given me the spirit of fear but He has given me the Spirit of love, power and a sound mind. (Isa. 45:2-3, Ephesians 6:10; 2 Tim 1:7)

My God shall keep me secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues. God is my hiding place; He will preserve me from trouble; He will surround me with songs of deliverance and keep me alive for the name of the Lord is a strong tower: I have run into it and I am safe. No weapon that is formed against me shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against me in judgment I condemn. This is my heritage as a servant of the Lord, and my righteousness is of the Lord. (Psalm 31:20, Psalm 32:7, 41:2, Proverbs 18:10, Isaiah 54:17)

Every day and in every way I am getting better: spiritually, physically, financially, mentally, morally, and in all my endeavours.

I am called for a purpose; I will fulfill this purpose and I will arrive at God’s ordained destiny for my life. Nothing will cut me short. I will make a formidable impact in my world for the Kingdom. Therefore, I declare that I am a person of integrity, I am spiritually fervent, and I am accountable in all I do because I’ve been raised to live the Kingdom Life here on earth.

It is my day of Great and Mighty Things!
