"Miracles In Painful Places"

S.E.E.D. For Today

Scripture: "Suddenly, a great earthquake shook the foundations of the prison. All at once every prison door flung open and the chains of all the prisoners came loose." Acts 16:26 (TPT Bible)

Explanation: Paul and Silas after being severely beaten, were thrown into prison, the jailer on duty was commanded to guard them securely. So the jailer placed them in the innermost cell of the prison and had their feet bound and chained. Undaunted by the situation, they prayed in the middle of the night and sang songs of praise to God, while all the other prisoners listened to their worship. Their cries and worship reached God and every prisoner was set free.

Example: Miracles occur in painful places through consistent fasting, prayer and worship. God's heart was moved by His servants faith, prayer and praise and He responded with power. You may not be in a literal prison, but many of us are in situations that have us bound and in chains. In the darkest and painful moments of life is a miracle just for you. I challenge you to bless the Lord at all times, in every circumstance, in the emotional and mental prisons, the prison of grief, of fear, of doubt, of sickness, of lack, pray without ceasing, let a praise continually be in your mouth. Every door is about to fling open, chains are breaking and there is about to be a release of extraordinary miracles!

Devotion: Lord I lift my voice in prayer and praise unto you. Break every chain in my life, everything that has me bound has to loose me in the Name of Jesus. Lord break open the doors that I am purposed to come out of and the doors that I am to go in. Thank you for the power and spirit of freedom from every plan of the enemy. Thank you for the outpouring of your Holy Spirit in my life. Rescue me from the deplorable confusion of every crisis that occurs, and display Your Glory in Jesus Name Amen.

UN-DO!

S.E.E.D. For Today: Scripture: "Undo The Heavy Burdens" ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Example: There was a great deal of injustice in the land and with the rich exploiting the poor and the rulers using their authority only to make themselves richer. It was a conflict between truth and lies, just like in our land today. The people of God were no different in operating under the same system as this. But God called them out and wanted them to understand that their fasting was in vain if they did not undo the heavy burden they placed on others while still outwardly devoting themselves to religion or as they thought to God. Exercise: Let's invite the Holy Spirit to solve problems and aid us in lifting loads and overcome barriers that keep us and our loved ones from walking joyfully in the Lord. In self-denying love and care for others, let's undo any heavy burden or untie any yoke that we may have placed upon friends, family, associates or even employees. Devotion: Lord toda...

Bursting Out Of It!

S.E.E.D. For Today:  Scripture: "Is this not the the fast which I have chosen: Loosen the bonds of wickedness." ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Explanation: There should be the right motive when we fast. The people of God in Isaiah observed but there was no change in them. When fasting we do not want to look at it as a religious ritual, but a means to transformation. The fruit of repentance ought to be evident in relationship with one another and our neighbor. If we fast and persist in arrogance, stubbornness, fighting and strife then we are only doing this out of routine. Exercise: Prayer is important to experience the grace and power of God when fasting. Without the consistency of prayer we will not see breakthrough. God is challenging us to do the fast He has chosen, the first means of business is releasing or loosing the bonds of wickedness. Whatever besets itself and entangles you again under the same slave system of missing the mark with God has to let you go. I challenge you ...

MOTIVATE

S.E.E.D. For Today_ Motivate S-cripture Hebrews 10:24 "Let Us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works" NLT The author's exhortation of faith, hope and love elaborates on the greatest of this triad which is love. Love is the greatest way to motivate because it is communal that it reaches out to others. The writer incites the believer that with great enthusiasm we motivate one another to love and to do good works. Example Provoke, encourage, stimulate, push, sharpen, provide the stimulus needed to go forth or not give up. Exercise Today challenge yourself to think of ways to motivate one another, pick up the phone call someone and motivate them to continue in the Lord, motivate someone to forgive and move forward, love and not hate, to be confident in God's Word for their lives. Motivate one another not to let sin deceive them, think of ways to provide the stimulus needed for the individuals you consider to reach. Devotion Lord ...
