May 1, 2019 CAC LIVING WATER DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE : TOPIC - GOD WHO WORKS

--> 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.

THE LIVING WATER
DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE

Wednesday, May 1, 2019 - _Workers’ Day

TOPIC -  GOD WHO WORKS

Read: Genesis 1:1-5

MEMORISE: _And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being_ (Genesis 2:7).


EXPOSITION
The Bible begins by telling us something about God. It’s not a description of God’s nature or a hymn to God’s glory. Rather, the first thing Scripture reveals about God is, His activity: God created the heavens and the earth. Where once there was nothing, now there is something. Indeed, now there is everything. Scripture starts with a bang.

To use more general language, the first thing we learn about God is that he worked. He made something. He exercised his creative, visionary, ordering power. Throughout chapters 1 and 2 of the book of Genesis, we see God engrossed in the shaping of creation.

The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters_ (Gen. 1:2). The nascent creation, though still “formless,” has the material dimensions of space (“the deep”) and matter (“waters”), and God is fully engaged with this materiality (“the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters”).

Later, in chapter 2, we see God making man from dust. *_The Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground_ (Gen. 2:7).* Work isn’t something added on to the biblical story. It comes right at the start. In the beginning, God worked. God has graciously revealed Himself to us in the Scripture. The first thing He showed us about Himself, is that, He is the Lord, God who created all things. He is a God who worked, and who is working still.

Work is your destiny! May you be like God, today, and work, without grumbling! May you fulfil your destiny, in Jesus’ name.

PRAYER POINTS
1. God, please work in and through my life today and forever.
2. Help me to see all of my work this day as an imitation or continuation of Your creativity, O Lord.
3. Lord, destroy the spirit of idleness and slothfulness in our youths and nation.

EXTRA READING FOR TODAY: 1 Samuel 18:4 – 20:13; Luke 20:6 – 20:27
