HIS VOICE DAILY DEVOTIONAL

TOPIC: DO YOU KNOW?
TEXT: 2PETER 3:8
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. (KJV)
Do you know that God’s time and calendar is different from ours? He does not count days, time, and actions as we do. Don’t be ignorant that before God, a day can be likened unto a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day. This implies that there is so much we see, and think that God is slow, but before God we are the one who is slow and far behind his workings.
In the same light, God does not weigh action and make judgement as we do. His judgement towards the man who is yet to embrace his plan and purpose is patience, persuasion and love. He erected a medium of preaching to bring every man to receive his mercy and grace. He put together his power to save a man in preaching and faith in death and resurrection of Jesus.
It is written; For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. (Romans 1:16-17 KJV)
In the gospel of salvation, announced and preach is the power of God to save any man and by this God expresses his righteousness anchored on faith (trust in the death and resurrection of Christ)
The judgement of God is also seen in patience as it is written in 2Peter 3:9, it says; The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent. (NLT)
He does not want you to be destroyed but desires that you should repent. Have a changed mind and turn to God, the lover of your soul. For you have an arc enemy, the devil, he hates your soul and desires that you do not embrace salvation. Allow me to lead you to him who love you eternally, pray with me:
PRAYER
Dear Jesus, I come to you today. I believe that you died for my sins and rose again for my justification. I believe in your death, and confess you as my lord and savior. My sins are forgiven and I have eternal life. Pour the gift of your Holy Spirit on me as I rise up a new man in Christ, having eternal life. Amen
