TOPIC: Examine Your Environment (TREM Devotional 21 November 2022)

“And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;” Mark 7:33 (KJV)

Wisdom For The Day MESSAGE:

You must examine where you circulate, and among which type of people. Do they encourage your faith, or enhance your fear, doubt and unbelief? In our text Jesus brought the man that was deaf and dumb out of the multitude, that’s very important and very key. He refused that he should stay in their midst. Put on your imaginations! This is a man that was both deaf and dumb. Yet Jesus knew that he would be affected by the environment. How much more those of us whose sensory parts are fully alive and awake!

Jesus knew that something must be wrong in that space to make Him bring him out from that space. So you can’t stay in a wrong environment and expect victory. Somebody has rightly said that you cannot undertake a journey on a devil’s ticket and expect an angel to welcome you at your arrival point. So, it is important to re-examine what you are listening to, under what atmosphere are you in, is it an atmosphere of strife and envy? The scripture says where there is strife and envy there is confusion and every evil work (James 3:16).

You know, some of us are responsible for attracting the evil things around us. God plans something great in your live but at times we abort it because of the things we get entangled with, the environment we circulate, people that speak into our lives, and things you are always meditating on. Until you deal with those things you cannot move forward in life. We must be prepared to walk away from what we are used to in order to embrace the new things that God is doing in us.

The Bible says remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing. Now it shall spring forth, shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert (Isaiah 43:18-19). You cannot get new things when you are stuck in the wrong environment and refusing to step out of it.

The Lord has opened the heavens, the storehouse of His bounty, to send rain on my land in this new month and to bless my home and all the works of my hands and I will lend unto many nations, and I will not borrow (Deu 28: 12,).

I know that all things work together for my good because I love God, and because I am called according to His purpose. In everything I give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning me (Rom. 8:28; 1 Thess. 5:18). The Lord has assured me that He will never leave me nor forsake me, so that I can boldly say, The Lord is my helper; and I shall not be afraid. (Hebrews 13:5-6)

Every day and in every way I am getting better: spiritually, physically, financially, mentally, morally, and in all my endeavours.

I am called for a purpose. I will fulfill this purpose and I will arrive at God’s ordained destiny for my life. Nothing will cut me short. I will make a formidable impact in my world for the Kingdom.

IT IS MY WEEK OF ACCELERATION!
