“ULTIMATE CARE DEVOTIONAL”⛪SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 2022🪐💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦TODAY’S THEME: ⛪ BENEFITS OF THE HOLY SCRIPTURES“The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.”TEXT: Psalms 19:7-8 (KJV)MESSAGE🍎The Holy Scriptures were written by the inspiration of God and they are profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness.(2 Timothy 3:15-16); 15” And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness”Inside the Holy Scriptures are God’s laws, testimonies, statutes, and commandments.Beloved, a law is the system of rules which a particular country or community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members and which it may enforce by the imposition of penalties.A testimony is a formal written or spoken statement. A statute is a law or decree made by God.A commandment is a divine rule, especially one of the Ten Commandments. These show that the Word of God has many good things to offer:It converts our souls, makes us wise, rejoices our hearts, and enlightens our eyes (Psalms 19:7–8).Your total dependent on the Word of God, and anchoring your life on the word will move you from glory to glory.We are called to abide in Christ always. Abide in his word always. For we cannot achieve anything in life without abiding in the word (John 15:1-7). Without the word we can do nothing, because we are the products of the words (1 Peter 1:23);Listen to these scriptures:“I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you” (john15:1-7);“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart” (HEBREWS 4:12); and“Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever” (1 PETER 1:23)Hallelujah! These are powerful scriptures that empower us for exploit in the kingdom. You are blessed.BENEFITS OF THE HOLY SCRIPTURESIt restores the soul.

ULTIMATE CARE DEVOTIONAL⛪FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2022🪐💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦TODAY’S THEME:⛪ WALKING IN HOLINESS“Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:”TEXT: Psalms 139:23 (KJV)MESSAGE🍎The word Holy according to 1 Peter 1:15-16, is translated to mean sacred, morally blameless, consecrated saint. God is looking for people who are consecrated, or set apart for His use. He chose you and called you from the foundation of the world that we should be holy and be blameless, as children of light.“According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love” (EPHESIANS 1:4)Walking in holiness is the proof of your oneness with God Almighty. God is always good and wants the best for His children. He loves to fellowship with His children. Holiness is His nature, and He wants His children to always live in holiness (Leviticus 21:8).“Thou shalt sanctify him therefore; for he offereth the bread of thy God: he shall be holy unto thee: for I the Lord, which sanctify you, am holy”He is Holy and has called us to Holiness;15 “But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man’s work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear”.He wants us to be Holy in all manner of conversation. In our daily living, we must be holy, in our doing business with our fellow humans, holiness must be brought into. In our relationship with others, we must be holy. In our conduct in our communities and churches, holiness is necessary. In our families, it is important that husband and wife are true to each other in holiness and faithfulness.The psalmist asked God to search him and know his heart – to try him and know his thoughts – and see if there was any wicked way in him; to lead him in the way everlasting. May this be our prayers also in Jesus mighty name, Amen.Dear beloved, the everlasting way is where you will find peace, joy, prosperity, and progress (John 14:6).Wickedness and any other sin in your heart will fight against your peace, joy, prosperity, and progress.Therefore, live a life of purity and ask God to direct you onto the right path. He will show you the everlasting way because you are determined to please Him, and you will find rest for your soul. Praise the Lord! Be thou holy!PRAYERS♨️Heavenly and righteous Father, thank You for showing me the way to living in holiness. Please continually make me mindful of your holiness, and I will continually live in purity for you and be blessed in all my ways in Jesus’ name.Walk in me for the fulfilling of your divine plans in my life. Help me Lord to live for you alone and manifest your divine will in my life in Jesus mighty name, Amen.FURTHER BIBLE READINGEPHESIANS 1BIBLE READING PLAN FOR THE YEAR, 2022.MORNING: DEUTERONOMY, 18-19EVENING: GALATIANS 6, EPHESIANS 1.💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦Author: Pastor NseAbasi Harry 🪐💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦HAMMER WORD BIBLE CHURCH, ABAK, AKWA IBOM STATE CARES ⛪
ULTIMATE CARE DEVOTIONAL ⛪FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 18,:2022🎁TODAY’S THEME: ⛪ LIGHT MY CANDLE O’ LORD“For thou wilt light my candle: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness.” TEXT: Psalms 18:28 (KJV)MESSAGE🍎Candle in the Bible signifies light in the darkness of life especially individual life. Candle is a holy illumination of the Spirit of truth.Though God is light, but He makes use of candles. In a world of gross darkness, what God needs is candle to capture the territory and squash darkness.What is God’s Candle?Proverbs 20:27, says “The Spirit of man is the candle of the Lord.”The Candle of the Lord is man’s spirit. God needs man’s spirit to align with His Spirit for exploits. Amos 3:3 says “can two walk together except they be agreed”? And Amos 3:7 adds;” Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets” (KJV)It is God’s desire to deliver a territory from darkness. But the challenge is that He needs a candle. He needs men that will present their candles and receive light that will bring deliverance to their territory and set at liberty those that are bound.Examples of those that presented their Candles in the Bible to the Lord for use;Daniel in Daniel 5:11. Daniel remained relevant in his days because his candles which receive light from God.“There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and in the days of thy father light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the king Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, I say, thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers” (Daniel 5:11).John the Baptist was also a burning light for God in his generation.6 “There was a man sent from God, whose name was John” (John 1:6). He was called of God as the candle of light;33” Ye sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth.35 He was a burning and a shining light: and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light” (John 5:33,35).In Job 25:3, the Bible says;“Is there any number of his armies? and upon whom doth not his light arises?”I want to rightly inform you that every vessel of God carries some magnitude of God’s light. It is through the help of your spirit that you can catch the light, this is because the spirit of man is the candle of the Lord. And you must walk in the spirit to be able to catch the light, because the Bible says, walk in the spirit and you will not fulfil the lust of the flesh (Galatians 5:16-17);16 “This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would”.It is our turn to pray and say “Light my Candle O Lord”. May the good Lord help you and light your candle in Jesus mighty name, Amen.God is awesome; He is the creator of the universe and the events therein. There are many things to learn from God; as a matter of fact, there is always something new to learn from God. He has positioned Himself to teach us new things so that we don’t become bored. As a child of God, learn to psych (psych comes from Greek word meaning breath, spirit, soul, mind; it denotes the human soul, spirit or mind) your mind to learn from God and nature (Psalm 19:1–3).“The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard”.God created day and night, light and darkness, cold and heat, sweet and bitter, heaven and hell, joy and sorrow, etc. Therefore, we must know that the only thing that is constant is change, but God cannot change (Malach1 3:6)Beloved, if you are going through a period of darkness in your life, encourage yourself with God’s Word and know that surely your light will come. The Lord will light your darkness for you to have joy and testify that the Lord is good (Psalm 30:11). Cease from complaining, worrying, and murmuring; turn these into praise, thanksgiving, and dancing. When you create the atmosphere of praise, thanksgiving, and dancing in the midst of your sorrows and difficulties, God is glorified, and He comes speedily to rescue you. Hallelujah! Be A Worshipper!PRAYERS♨️Heavenly Father, I thank you for your goodness and favour in my life. I also thank You for teaching me how to encourage myself from the psalmist. I cease complaining and worrying today; I turn to praise, thanksgiving, and celebration for Your goodness and mercies over my life in Jesus’ name.

ULTIMATE CARE DEVOTIONAL ⛪WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 16,2022🪐💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦TODAY’S THEME: OUR SENIOR ADVOCATE“My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous”.TEXT: 1 John 2:1MESSAGE🍎“If any man sin, we have an advocate.” Yes, though we sin, we have the Advocate still. John does not say, “If any man sin, he has forfeited his advocate,” but “we have an advocate,” sinners though some are. Who is an Advocate?An Advocate is someone who speaks up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. An Advocate is also a person who speaks on behalf of someone and judge fairly; defends the rights of the poor and needy. The Holy Spirit is called The Advocate. Once we put our trust in Jesus, He defends us. He testifies with our spirit that we are the children of God (Romans 8:16). While the Devil accuses us before the father.Satan accuses us before God, our Father, day and night concerning all our sins. Satan is called the Accuser of the brethren (Rev. 12: 10),“And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven. Now is come Salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of the brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God, day and night” (Rev. 12:10)while the Holy Spirit is the Advocate to the brethren (1 John 2:1).All the sin that a believer ever did, or can commit, cannot destroy his interest in the Lord Jesus Christ, as his advocate. The name here given to our Lord is suggestive. “Jesus.” Ah! then he is an advocate such as we need, for Jesus is the name of one whose business and delight it is to save. “They shall call his name Jesus, for he shall save his people from their sins” (Mathew 1:21). His sweetest name implies his success. Next, it is “Jesus Christ”—Christos, the anointed.This shows his authority to plead. The Christ has a right to plead, for he is the Father’s own appointed advocate and elected priest, so I called him “Our Senior Advocate”. If he were of our choosing, he might fail, but if God hath laid help upon one that is mighty (Psalm 89:19), we may safely lay our trouble where God has laid his help. ‘He is Christ, and therefore authorized’; ‘he is Christ, and therefore qualified’, for the anointing has fully fitted him for his work.He can plead so as to move the heart of God and prevail. What words of tenderness, what sentences of persuasion will the anointed use when he stands up to plead for me! One more letter of his name remains, “Jesus Christ the righteous” (1 John 2:1). This is not only his character but his plea. And if the Righteous One be my Senior Advocate, then my cause is good, or he would not have espoused it. It is his plea, for he meets the charge of unrighteousness against me by the plea that he is righteous. He declares himself my substitute and puts his obedience to my account (Isaiah 53:4-8).4 “Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.7 He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken”.My soul, thou hast a friend well fitted to be thine advocate, he cannot but succeed; I leave myself entirely in his hands. Lord, I commit my life into thine hands, guide me aright in Jesus mighty name, Amen.PRAYERS♨️Heavenly Father, I thank you for being my help all the time. I thank you for sending your only begotten son to take my place as a sinner, so that I become the righteous one today. Lord, I am grateful.I place my care in thy hand, empower me to live unto you till the end of age in Jesus mighty name, Amen.I commit my life and activities to you today, and I plead for your refuge, care and favour in Jesus mighty name Amen.FURTHER BIBLE READINGObadiah 1BIBLE READING PLAN FOR THE YEAR, 2022MORNING: NUMBERS 36, DEUTERONOMY 1.EVENING: 2 CORINTHIANS, 1-2💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦Author: Pastor NseAbasi Harry 🪐💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦HAMMER WORD BIBLE CHURCH, ABAK, AKWA IBOM STATE CARES⛪
ULTIMATE CARE DEVOTIONAL⛪TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 2022🪐💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦TODAY’S THEME: ⛪THE DAY OF THE LORD“But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night; but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light”.TEXT: Zechariah 14:7MESSAGE:The Day of the Lord according Zechariah 14:1-15, describes the cosmic picture of God gathering the nations to lay siege to Jerusalem and when half of the population has been exiled, God comes to deliver the city (verses,2-3), defeating those opposing Jerusalem (verses, 12-15).The Day of the Lord is a time of Judgment, a time when a sentence is passed and settled forever. It is a day that is coming for certain as Obadiah said, “For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen; as thou had done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine head” (Obadiah 1:15)The significant of the Day of the Lord: it’s a day inaugurating the eternal universal rule of God.In the Old Testament; it was recognized as an eschatological day of ultimate judgment bringing final deliverance or doom called also day of Yahweh.In the New Testament: it is declared as the triumphant day of Christ’s return to earth in glory.7 Ways to Prepare for Jesus’ Return (Mark 13: 24-37)Live in the light of His first coming.Be discerningAccept the uncertaintiesDon’t lose hopeEncourage one anotherLive as if today was the dayKeep on doing the work Jesus left us to do.On the Day of the Lord, the Lord’s people shall also enjoy light in the hour of death. Unbelief laments; the shadows fall, the night is coming, existence is ending. Ah no, crieth faith, the night is far spent, the true day is at hand (Romans 13:12-14). Light is come, the light of immortality, the light of a Father’s countenance. Gather up thy feet in the bed, see the waiting bands of spirits! Angels waft thee away.

ULTIMATE CARE DEVOTIONAL ⛪THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 2022🪐💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦Today’s Theme:⛪️ WALKING IN LIGHT.”Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that followed me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life”Text: JOHN 8:12MESSAGE🍎Jesus blodly declared “I am the light of the world, he that followed me shall not walk in darkness but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). And he Jesus transferred his light to us and declared, “You are the light of the world, A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid”(Mathew 14). Based on the following biblical injunctions, Light represents God. Light represents a true believer in Jesus Christ. The Bible says God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. (1 John 1: 5; refer; Micah 7:8).In John 8:12 Jesus says “I am the light of the world. Whoever that follow me will not walk in darkness but will have the light of life”.Light also signifies God’s presence and favour (Psalm 27:1; 2 Cor. 4:6). Light represents faith, holiness, righteousness, etc.The believer in Christ Jesus as light in John 9:5. The Bible reads,” As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world” (John 9:5). Walking in Light means walking according to the will of God.Walking in Light means living according to the purpose of God in your life.Walking in Light means living a life of righteousness and true holiness.Walking in Light means living in the truth.Walking in Light means living in the love of God and obeying his commandments always.Walking in Light means not having anything to do with the unfruitful works of darkness.A believer has two principles at work within him which may portray light.We can live by one of the two principles; we live either by the principle of life or by the principle of right and wrong, good and evil. We can live either on the line of life depending on the Lord as life or we can just live according to the knowledge of good and evil.“And out of the ground made the Lord to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil” (Genesis 2:9).These two trees issue brought about the two principles of living. We in his natural estate (the nature of sin) was subjected to one principle only, which was darkness; now light has entered, and the twoprinciples (laws)disagree (2 Corinthians 6:14), “Be ye not unequally yoke together with unbelievers; for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?Mark the Apostle Paul’s words in the seventh chapter of Romans:“I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: but I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin, which is in my members.” (Romans 7: 21-23)How is this state of things occasioned?In Genesis 1: 4, “The Lord divided the light from the darkness.”Darkness, by itself, was quiet and undisturbed, but when the Lord sent in light, there was a conflict, for the one is in opposition to the other: a conflict which will never cease till the believer is altogether light in the Lord. If there be a division within the individual Christian, there is certain to be a division without. So soon as the Lord gives to any man light, he proceeds to separate himself from the darkness around; he secedes from a merely worldly religion of outward ceremonial, for nothing short of the gospel of Christ will now satisfy him, and he withdraws himself from worldly society and frivolous amusements, and seeks the company of the saints, for “We know we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren”(1 John 3:14). The light gathers to itself, and the darkness to itself.What God has divided, let us never try to unite, but as Christ went without the camp, bearing his reproach, so let us come out from the ungodly, and be a peculiar people. He was holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners; and, as he was, so we are to be nonconformists to the world, dissenting from all sin, and distinguished from the rest of mankind by our likeness to our Master, JESUS CHRIST.PRAYERS♨️Heavenly Father, I thank you for setting me free from the law of sin and death by the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus. LORD, I thank you for the wonderful opportunity you have given to me that I should be your child, separated from darkness and empowered in light.I thank you Father for making me the light of God in this world.Help me Lord to continue to walk in light, fulfilling purpose and manifesting the kingdom.I pray that my activities today be saved and sound in Christ Jesus, in Jesus mighty name Amen.FURTHER BIBLE READING🪐John 12:35-37; Matthew 5:16BIBLE READING PLAN FOR THE YEAR, 2022.MORNING: NUMBERS, 6-7EVENING: 1 CORINTHIANS, 4-5💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦Author: Pastor NseAbasi Harry🌈💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦HAMMER WORD BIBLE CHURCH, ABAK, NIGERIA CARES⛪
ULTIMATE CARE DEVOTIONAL⛪WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 2022💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦Today’s Theme: ⛪️ THEY SHALL NOT COME NEAR YOU.”A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee”Text: Psalm 91:7″MESSAGE🍎The picture in the opening scripture is how our enemies are subdued by God. They have been made to fall in their thousands at our side; they have been made not to prevail, and neither will they prevail. Our theme says, the enemy shall not come near you. Which you? The believer in Christ Jesus. The born again child of God, walking in the will of God. Why will the enemy not come near the true believer for evil? This is because, the true believer is surrounded by the chariot of fire of God, and the fire of God burns any evil thing coming against the child of God (Psalm 97:3) Jesus said, “the prince of this world cometh and hath nothing in me” (John 14: 30).Therefore, there is no need, as a child of God, to fear the enemy.Besides the devil and his cohort of darkness, anything that seeks to oppose or seek your downfall as a child of God is an enemy.All of these have been designed to fall flat before us and never to have control over us. Jesus Christ emphasized this in Luke 10:19, where he said our enemies have been perpetually placed under our feet for us to trample over them and that nothing would hurt us.“Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you” (Luke 10:19)Let this consciousness be in you, and you will overcome all doubts and opposition in your life. Dear beloved, do you have opposition in your life?How do you seek to overcome these?Remember our victory comes through our Lord Jesus Christ. “But thanks be to God who gives us the victory through our saviour Jesus Christ” (1 Corinthians 15:57).Beloved, you must align with Jesus for this victory. How can you align with Jesus? To align with Christ for your shield and defense, you must do the following, if you have not done them.You must be born again. John 3:5-6You must be filled with the Holy Spirit because any battle is spiritual. You must operate in the spiritual to rule the unseen forces. John 3:6You must have faith in God. 1 John 5:4You must constantly meditate on the word of God. Psalm 107:20.Get connected to a covenant which is in Christ Jesus. Covenant of Spiritual parenthood. Through the covenant of spiritual parenthood, you will get a hedge that shield you against evil cloud. Keep abiding in Christ, for he is your source and sustenance in every thing. Psalm 89: 28, 34-37, Psalm91:2If you do these, happy are you.PRAYERS♨️Heavenly Father, I thank you for a day like this. I thank you for the gift of life and the salvation of my soul.Lord, I decree every opposition to my life and destiny, I terminate them all in Jesus mighty name amen.Every agent of cruelty fighting against my purpose in life, Lord, I banish them and destroy them by the power of the Holy Ghost.By the blood of Jesus Christ, I crush every ungodly agenda in my life and family.I decree peace in my going out, peace in my coming in, progress in my desire and favour on every side concerning me and my family in Jesus mighty name Amen.I thank you Father for answering me in Jesus mighty name Amen.FURTHER BIBLE READINGPsalm 9; Psalm 94: 1-17.BIBLE READING PLAN FOR THE YEAR, 2022MORNING: NUMBERS, 22-23EVENING: 1 CORINTHIANS, 4-5💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦Author: Pastor NseAbasi Harry💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦Hammer Word Bible Church, Abak, Nigeria Cares ⛪
