Prophetic v/s Sonship
Listen
Transcript:
As we begin our day this morning, can we intentionally ask the Lord for direction concerning what He has called us to do, what our kingdom assignment is all about. Can we seek Him with a heart of service humbling ourselves in His presence? We need to be intentional to understand our calling, our responsibility to represent our Lord on this earth.
Ask yourselves this morning what are you prepared to use to carry out your kingdom responsibility. Are you going to use your abilities, your gifts, your talents or are you going to lead by your character, your accountability, your submission or your willingness to obey the voice and the word straight from the heart of our Lord.
In the Bible we see how Elisha was in total submission and had full accountability with his spiritual father Elijah. So even when the others came about to him talking of what they heard from God carrying just mere information, he continued to hold steadfast and was able to react to them in a way that told of his submission to Elijah. This not only showed that Elisha had the character of submission to his authority but also a revelation and an understanding of his spiritual covering.
It is very important for us to be mindful to not just have the right information but a revelation from the Lord, an understanding that can only come from above. Share on XWe should be able to choose to submit than rely on our prophetic gifts and abilities alone. This is not to say that these are not important or relevant but it should never be taken to account at the cost of our submission.
May we be encouraged to practice submission to all the authoritative figures our Lord has placed in our lives, whether it be a church or our spiritual leaders. May we be able to humble ourselves killing our pride and put aside our prophetic abilities, talents and gifts so that the Lord can elevate and honour us and give us what is due to us.
May the Lord bless you and cause His face to shine upon you, may His grace abound in every area of your life.

Feel For Him
Acts 17:27 (GNT)
He did this so that they would look for him, and perhaps find him as they felt around for him. Yet God is actually not far from any one of us.
Lock the Door
Matthew 23:13 (GNT)
““How terrible for you, teachers of the Law and Pharisees! You hypocrites! You lock the door to the Kingdom of heaven in people’s faces, but you yourselves don’t go in, nor do you allow in those who are trying to enter!”
Psalm 147:2–3 reveals God's heart as a Restorer rather than a Punisher. Although Israel went into exile because of its own rebellion, God did not abandon His people. Instead, He promised to restore Jerusalem, bring the exiles home, heal the brokenhearted, and bind up their wounds.
The message reminds us that while God may use friends, pastors, counselors, or loved ones to help us, true healing and restoration ultimately come from the Lord. His restoration reaches every part of our lives—our hearts, relationships, health, finances, emotions, and spiritual walk.
God knows every wound, including those hidden from others. Unlike people, who can only comfort from the outside, He sees the deepest parts of our hearts and heals completely. His healing is so complete that even the scars of past pain lose their power to define us.
The devotion encourages believers to fix their eyes on God instead of relying solely on human help. No matter how far someone has drifted, how many mistakes they have made, or how broken they feel, God is still calling them back. His desire is to restore, heal, and make all things beautiful in His perfect timing.
