RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. THE DIVINE ORDER - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME PHD. . FRIDAY, MAY 20TH 2016.

For because ye did it not at the first, the LORD our God made a breach upon us, for that we sought him not after the due order (1 Chronicles 15:13).
There's such a thing as divine order. Order here, is a prescribed form of religious service or rite. Through the scriptures, we see that the Lord established definite orders and patterns for different services of spiritual importance. Even the ministries and offices of the prophets, priests, and kings had divine orders guiding their actions and in relation to one another.
In 1 Corinthians 14:40, the Spirit said through the Apostle Paul, "Let all things be done decently and in order." When Moses was about to make the tabernacle, God admonished him to make everything according to the prescribed order: "...Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount" (Hebrews 8:5).
There's a pattern; there's a way; there's a prescribed order in doing the things of God; follow it and you'll experience His grace and blessings in your life and in your service to Him. To do otherwise is to walk against His perfect will, like what happened to David and the children of Israel when they didn't follow the prescribed order in moving the ark of God into the city of David. The repercussion was grievous (Read 2 Samuel 6:1-10).
Follow God's Word. Carry out His instructions according to the prescribed order. Don't break ranks. Don't have your own way. When instructions are given to you in the house of God, not only are you required to act on them swiftly, let it also be according to the divine order.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the ability of your Word in my spirit. I'm a doer of the Word, not just a hearer. The results of living in, and by the Word are evidently manifested in every area of my life today, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Further Study: || Proverbs 19:20 Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end. ||
|| James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. ||
|| 1 Samuel 15:22 And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. ||

1. HE WILL BRING YOU GOD’S PRESENCE The Holy Spirit has a beautiful Identity. He is called the” ANGEL OF GOD’S PRESENCE”. He is the one that brings us the presence of God and makes it real to us – Isaiah 63:9,10a When we pray, it is the Holy Spirit that makes the divine presence real to our Spirits, and we are spiritually overwhelmed by His Glory.

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL. CHALLENGES ARE YOUR OPPORTUNITIES - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME PHD FRIDAY, MAY 6TH 2016.

Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children...No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it (Hebrews 12:7-11 NIV). The Bible says, "For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him..." (2 Chronicles 16:9). That means He's watching and looking for opportunities to manifest His glory on your behalf. He never leaves you alone. He never lets you down. He's moved with the feeling of our infirmities (Hebrews 4:15). He knows when you go through pain, and seeks to get you out of every predicament. Every human need is God's opportunity to bless. He wants to meet every human need. Actually, He's already done that in Christ Jesus, but some are yet to fully understand and accept what He's done. When you have a problem, when you...
