CHRIST APOSTOLIC CHURCH THE LIVING WATER (January-December, 2024)
DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE
DATE: Monday, April 22, 2024
(Earth Day & International Mother Earth Day)
TOPIC: GOD'S SECRET PLAN
MEMORISE : But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory (1 Corinthians 2:7).
READ : Colossians 2:1-4
[1]. For I want you to know what a great conflict I have for you and those in Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh,
[2]. that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,
[3]. in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
[4]. Now this I say lest anyone should deceive you with persuasive words.
EXPOSITION
Can anyone quantify the amount of God's deposit on earth, or all His benefits enjoyed by mankind? He puts the mineral resources there to be discovered and excavated for our use. Of course, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him (1 Cor. 2:9). This talks about God's great plan and purpose for His children. Are you one of His? You can enjoy His benefits! Of course, we know that Christ is the revelation of God. He came to unveil everything about God's glorious kingdom. All you need to know and enjoy is wrapped in Christ. So, no other scheme of salvation, or divine knowledge can ever equal, in its depth and excellence, the Gospel plan (Acts 4:12). Christ as the Mediator between man and God, is the great treasure-house where we can find all the knowledge and wisdom man needs. You know how far you have gone to find valuable knowledge to take you to your set goals in life. Much more is expected of you to do everything possible to find and dig out the knowledge and wisdom needed to be right with, and acceptable to God. On this Earth Day and International Mother Earth Day, be reminded that no amount of earthly possession can make up for your soul. That is why you must accept the provision of God and be part of His great plan. You need Jesus!
PRAYER POINTS
1. Lord Jesus, increase my faith and insight to unravel Your plans for my life.
2. Oh Lord, more than claiming my rights, help me to be keen about fulfilling my responsibilities to You.
3. Father Lord, please meet the urgent needs of Your Church at this time, in Jesus' name.

Tell it to me again
Wonderful story of love

Down from the crystal bright fountain
E'en from the dawn of creation
