August 24, 2018 DCLM Daily Manna Devotional : Topic - God of the Living

- , ,
--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

Topic: God of the Living 

Text: Mark 12:18-27 (KJV)
Key Verse: “He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err”(Mark 12:27).

MESSAGE:
The Sadducees were parochial in their understanding and interpretation of the Scriptures. This was aptly demonstrated in their interpretation of a very important matter in today’s passage. They descended so low in the way they exhibited ignorance in an important matter as marriage and life after death.
According to Jewish teaching, if a man married to a woman died without having an issue, but left behind him some brothers, the eldest of them was expected to marry the widow and raise up children for him. But in this case, seven brothers of a late man each married his wife without having any issue from her. They then asked the question: whose wife will this woman be at the resurrection? Our Lord therefore, pointed their attention to the fact that marriages take place only on earth. There is no marriage in heaven for there, we all become like the angels. The Sadducees therefore, greatly erred in their comparison of earthly things with eternal matters. They also misappropriated the scriptural position and roles of their forefathers like Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
It is a great sin to undermine the great power of God. Do not ridicule His great power and ability to bring to life every dead part of your body or system. The God we serve is a living God. Every believer that died in Christ shall rise again in the day of resurrection with a new and glorious body and live forever. We need to avoid the cynical stance of the Sadducees and cease dragging God down to strife and peripheral matters which hold no bearing upon our eternal perspective.
Thought For The Day: God is alive, alert and mindful of our dependence on Him.
Bible Reading In One Year: Jeremiah 51-52
