LIVING FOR GOD DAILY DEVOTIONAL
MONDAY APRIL 13, 2015
THEME: AT THE TIME OF SEPARATION
REFERENCE TEXT:
"Simon, Simon! Listen! Satan has received permission to test all
of you to separate the good from the bad as a farmer separates
the wheat from the chaff"- Luke 22:31 (GNB)
REFERENCE HYMN:
"Igba ewu, igba idanwo
Gba wa Oluwa awa
Tire nikan lawa nse"
"In perilous times, in temptation times
Save us all oh our dear Lord
It is unto thee we belong"- CCC Hymn 803
There comes a time when a man will be subjected to hard
testing which is to know how strong his allegiance is to the faith
that he professes. Just as Jesus Christ was tested before his
ministry started, so also Satan will test anyone who is on the
verge of similar feat. Aside from that reason, Satan also can test
a man to know whether he is good or bad. Ensure therefore that
your stand with God, so that when separation comes, you will
fall in the category of the wheat.
Know that in your walk with God, daily separation will come, but
you must hold on to Him and be very consistent. May God
strengthen you greatly in this regard in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Your goodness to your fellow man and faithfulness to God will
be tested severely. It may be through some difficult moments or
trying period, but just like Job whose loyalty was tested, keep
looking on to Jesus when you are in such a situation. May God
grant you victory over all tests in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Prayer point: Oh Lord, at the time of my testing, let me be
separated as a wheat in Jesus' Name. Amen.
