May 11, 2019 DCLM Daily Manna Devotional : Topic - For Sign Or Salvation?

--> 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 - For Sign Or Salvation? 

Text: Luke 11:29-36 (KJV)
Key Verse: “And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet” (Luke 11:29).

MESSAGE:
The market places in our various communities are a beehive of activities mainly connected with buying and selling. However, the whole crowd do not go into the market to buy the same product. Each individual focuses on what he is in the market to procure. The church is also a place of worship where people gather but it is clear that some people come there for various reasons other than seeking for salvation. The story was told recently of a young man caught in the house of God stealing from people’s bags when praying with eyes closed. The young man came to the church certainly not for a godly purpose of seeking spiritual edification but to steal. Some others do not come to steal but are only passionate about receiving miracles, prosperity, deliverance, spouse, etc.
The text reveals Christ’s encounter with a crowd which came to one of his public ministrations. He could see right into them and therefore wasted no time in rebuking them for seeking Him for the wrong motives. The allusion to the people of Niveneh was to point their attention to the demand of God from them “… for they repented at the preaching of Jonas…”
The church is not a center for entertainment, neither is it a place of commerce as many have turned it. We must understand that seeking for miracles, prosperity, breakthrough, deliverance and so on are not wrong. But to seek for them to the exclusion of the salvation of one’s soul is disastrous. Those who go to church just to admire the pastor’s message, seek for position or wife/husband or to enjoy the service are no doubts lost in the crowd.
The only way to project Christ to the world is to shine the light through our godly living in the world.
Thought For The Day: Always seek God with a right motive.
The Bible In One Year: 1 Corinthians 8-11
