ERCC DEVOTIONAL (TEKAN) DAILY SPIRITUAL DIET MONDAY 4TH SEPTEMBER, 2023
TEXT:ROMANS 1: 16-23
SPIRITUAL FOCUS: THE GOSPEL IS GOD'S POWER TO SALVATION.
The Apostle Paul clearly stated that he is not ashamed of the Gospel at all. In the same way, as followers of Christ, we should boast in the gospel, because by it all believers are saved. The center of the gospel is that everyone who is righteous by faith will live.
But he who does not believe in God, following in doing the works of the Lord, God will be angry with him. Brethren, today we are being warned to flee from these evil deeds so that we do not fall into the wrath of God. Thankfully, God has revealed Himself through creation so that mankind may know Him.
Seeing the creatures is enough for us to see the greatness and power of God, to avoid anything that will cause us to disobey Him and be ashamed. No matter what may come our ways, we should not be blinded by the desires of this world, for our own good.
Let us not forget that before the Lord Jesus come to the earth in the flesh, God was doing the work of evangelism by the things He created in His power. So, we have no excuse for not spreading the gospel, but many people still do not understand this. So, they do bad things. Seeing God's creation should be the message to them of His power.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: The Lord God does not discriminate.
PRAYER: Lord God, I beseech you, help me to grow in faith in Christ Jesus, Amen.
