THE MEEK SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH”

 You shall not labour in vain because of the anointing of God's favour upon you.

Good -Life Devotional: “THE MEEK SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH” 

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

   Psalm 37 declares a timeless promise: “But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace” (Psalm 37:11). In this chapter, God reminds believers not to be shaken by the temporary success of the wicked. Verse 1 says, “Fret not thyself because of evildoers.” The Hebrew word for fret is “charah” (חָרָה) meaning to be heated, to burn with jealousy or anger. God warns us not to burn with frustration when corruption appears to win.

The Bible teaches that the earth’s resources were created to sustain all humanity. God does not desire anyone to live in poverty; He provides abundantly (Psalm 24:1; Psalm 115:16). Poverty is often the result of the mismanagement and misappropriation of resources by ungodly men, not God’s will. It hinders service to God and opens the door to oppression and evil.

   Yet, God has a plan: to transfer influence and resources into the hands of the meek. The Hebrew word for meek is “anaw/anav” (עָנָו) meaning humble, submitted to God, gentle in spirit, disciplined and content. These are the people God trusts with wealth because they will distribute it righteously and ensure others are cared for (Proverbs 13:22; Isaiah 60:5).

Pray for the spirit of meekness and the downfall of corrupt systems. “Prophesy against them,” God says in Ezekiel 11:4, and “He frustrates the devices of the crafty” (Job 5:12). In due time, the meek will inherit the earth—just as Jesus confirmed in Matthew 5:5. Do not celebrate corruption. It is a sin against God 

 In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and the spirit of meekness .

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to serve with meekness.

EARTHLY ACHIEVEMENTS DON’T IMPRESS GOD — SOUL WINNING DOES

 You are marked for a divine promotion because of the anointing of God's favour upon you.

Good -Life Devotional: 

EARTHLY ACHIEVEMENTS DON’T IMPRESS GOD — SOUL WINNING DOES

  Psalm 49:16 says, “Be not afraid when one is made rich…” The Hebrew word for 'afraid'  here is “yārēʼ” (יָרֵא), meaning to fear, be intimidated, or feel anxious. Many people feel like failures when they don’t reach the level of “success” promoted by modern preachers—mansions, popularity, cars, and applause. But Scripture warns us not to measure ourselves by earthly standards.

Verse 17 explains why: “For when he dies, he shall carry nothing away.” What we struggle to acquire is inherited by others when we’re gone. Earthly achievements end at the grave, but heavenly impact echoes into eternity. Jesus said in Revelation 3:17 that those who think wealth equals success are actually “wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked” without God’s purpose.

    What truly matters is how many souls are being saved through us. Jesus said in John 15:16, “I chose you and appointed you to bear fruit and that your fruit should remain.” Our wealth and resources are not for pride, but for the advancement of the gospel. Heaven’s joy is not over earthly accomplishments but over “one sinner who repents” (Luke 15:7).

   Earthly achievements are not recognized in heaven, but soul-winning is recorded. Daniel 12:3 says those who turn many to righteousness will shine like stars forever.

   So don’t be discouraged. You are successful when you live for God’s purpose — winning souls for His kingdom.

  In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and boldness and wisdom for soul winning.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to preach the gospel of righteousness .

RECOGNIZING TRUTH & RESPONDING TO GOD

 The wicked shall be caught in their own traps because of the anointing of God's favour upon you.

Good -Life Devotional: RECOGNIZING TRUTH & RESPONDING TO GOD

Key Scripture: Romans 1:19-20; Psalm 19:1; 2 Corinthians 4:4; Romans 10:14

Many people say, “If God is real, shouldn’t everyone recognize the truth naturally without being told?” It sounds reasonable, but Scripture shows a deeper reality: God has revealed Himself, yet not everyone sees Him clearly.

The Bible teaches that God has woven evidence of His existence into creation. Romans 1:19-20 explains that His power and divine nature are visible through the world He made. Psalm 19:1 says Creation declares His glory. In other words, God has made knowledge of Himself available—not hidden.

So why doesn’t everyone believe automatically? Because human perception is affected by spiritual blindness and personal choices. According to 2 Corinthians 4:4, people can be blinded to spiritual truth. Romans 1:21 describes how some suppress what they know inside because they would rather live apart from God. The issue isn’t that God is absent; the issue is that hearts and minds can resist what He reveals.

This is why God invites His people to share the message. Not to pressure, manipulate, or force belief, but to lovingly declare what is true. Romans 10:14 reminds us that people cannot believe in what they have never heard. God chooses to work through people, not because He is weak, but because He values relationship and free will. Love must be chosen, not programmed.

Today, ask God to help you see truth clearly. Ask Him to open your spiritual eyes where confusion, doubt, or distraction has tried to blind you. And pray for courage to share your faith gently—with compassion, humility, and patience.

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to pray effectively . Lord, thank You for revealing Yourself. Open my eyes to Your truth, strengthen my faith, and help me share Your light with grace. Amen.

THE WRATH OF MAN SHALL PRAISE GOD

 The evil verdict against you shall result in your promotion because of the anointing of God's favour upon you.

Good -Life Devotional: 

THE WRATH OF MAN SHALL PRAISE GOD

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

Psalm 76:10 declares that the wrath of man shall praise God. 

Psalms 76:10 NLT

"Human defiance only enhances your glory, for you use it as a weapon.'

    This truth reminds us that nothing escapes God’s rule. Even when people act in anger, rebellion, or opposition, their plans cannot overthrow His purpose. Instead, God is able to turn what was meant for harm into a testimony of His wisdom and power.

We see this beautifully in the story of Esther. Haman’s rage against the Jews in Esther 7 was meant to wipe out God’s people. His anger was fueled by pride and hatred, and he believed his plan was unstoppable. Yet when Esther spoke before the king, that same royal anger turned against Haman. By chapter 10, the very situation meant to destroy Israel became the reason for their elevation, and Mordecai was raised to a place of honor. Human wrath did not defeat God—it fulfilled His purpose.

   This teaches us an apologetic truth: evil and opposition do not prove that God is weak; they reveal that His sovereignty is greater than human intentions. God doesn’t cause wickedness, but He can overrule it. He can turn persecution into deliverance, accusations into promotion, and fear into faith.

   When we face situations where people oppose us or when life seems unfair, Psalm 76:10 calls us to trust. God is not surprised. He is not intimidated. He is already working behind the scenes to bring glory to His name.

   The wrath of man will not stop the will of God—it will end up praising Him.

  In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and for speedy judgement against evil .

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and it was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to execute righteous judgement.

BY ONE OFFERING

 

The more the opposition is against you,  the higher shall be your promotion because of the anointing of God's favour upon you.
Good -Life Devotional:
BY ONE OFFERING

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi
   Hebrews 10:8-14 teaches a powerful truth: “By one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.” Religion demands endless sacrifices, rituals, and ablutions—acts that admit humanity is not righteous before a holy God. These practices could never take away sin; they were temporary shadows pointing to something greater. Scripture confirms that God cannot accept the unrighteous into heaven, and “without holiness no one will see the Lord” (Hebrews 12:14). The problem is clear—sinful humanity cannot make itself holy, and God is not pleased with lifeless religious sacrifices (Isaiah 1:11; Micah 6:6-8).
     Jesus Christ came as both Priest and Sacrifice, fulfilling what religion could never accomplish. He was the only one holy enough to stand before God, offering Himself without blemish (Hebrews 9:14). It takes a perfect sacrifice to satisfy a perfect God—and no religious person, no ritual, and no effort of human righteousness qualifies. Isaiah 64:6 declares that our righteousness is like “filthy rags,” unable to earn God’s acceptance.
    But Jesus did what we could not. He paid the price once and for all. Through one offering, He removed the barrier between God and humanity, making us holy, forgiven, and acceptable (Romans 5:1; Ephesians 1:7). The cross did not offer a temporary cleansing—it accomplished eternal redemption.
Now we stand before God not by religion, but by the finished work of Christ. One offering. One Savior. One way to God (John 14:6).
In Him, we are perfected forever.
  In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and walk before him and be perfect.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to overcome guilt and condemnation.

WRITTEN OF ME

 There shall be a performance of that which has been promised because of the anointing of God's favour upon you.

Good -Life Devotional: “WRITTEN OF ME

”  

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi 

“Then I said, ‘Behold, I come to do Your will, O God—

[in the volume of the book it is written of Me].’” — Hebrews 10:7 (AMP)

   Hebrews 10:7 reveals something powerful about Jesus: He did not appear in history by accident. He came by divine intention, fulfilling what had already been written. Long before Bethlehem, the cross, or the empty tomb, the eternal plan of God was already established. Jesus steps forward and declares, “I have come to do Your will.” This becomes the heartbeat of His mission.

    This verse reminds us that God’s plans are not random. Just as Jesus’ purpose was written in the volume of the Book, your life is not a mistake, and your journey is not unseen. God’s will for you is not to drift, but to discover purpose in Him.    Jesus demonstrates that true fulfillment begins with surrender — not to circumstances, but to the will of the Father.

Psalm 40:7–8, which Hebrews quotes, shows the Messiah delighting to do God’s will. Likewise, believers today are called not only to know God’s will but to delight in it. When we align our desires with His purpose, we find peace where confusion once lived, direction where uncertainty stood, and strength where weakness overwhelmed us.

Today, declare like Jesus:

“Lord, I choose Your will. Lead me. Use me. Guide me.”

May your life reflect what Heaven has already written.

  In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and for his will to be done .

PRAYER: Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to preach the gospel.

GOD THE FATHER CALLS JESUS CHRIST GOD

 The wicked shall suffer continuous retrogression because of the anointing of God's favour upon you.

Good -Life Devotional: GOD THE FATHER CALLS JESUS CHRIST GOD 

"YOUR THRONE, O GOD'

“But as to the Son, He says, ‘Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, and the righteous scepter is the scepter of His kingdom.’” — Hebrews 1:8 (AMP)

“Your throne, O God, is forever and ever; the scepter of Your kingdom is a scepter of righteousness.” — Psalm 45:6 (AMP)

    One of the most profound revelations in Scripture is that God the Father speaks to the Son and calls Him God. Hebrews 1:8, quoting Psalm 45:6, removes every doubt concerning the identity of Jesus Christ. He is not merely a messenger of God like the angels, nor a righteous teacher among many. He is the eternal King whose throne existed before time and will remain long after time has ceased.

Earthly thrones are temporary. Kingdoms rise through power, strategy, and conquest, and they eventually fall through corruption, rebellion, or decay. Yet the throne of Christ stands untouched by these forces. His authority is not sustained by armies or human approval but by His divine nature. Because His throne is eternal, His promises are unbreakable, and His covenant with His people is secure.

    The Scripture further reveals that the scepter of Christ’s kingdom is righteousness. This means His rule is just, pure, and trustworthy. Unlike human systems that often reward compromise, Christ governs with moral perfection. He loves righteousness and hates wickedness, not arbitrarily, but because righteousness preserves life, peace, and truth.

    For the believer, this truth is deeply comforting. We serve a King whose power is holy and whose authority is compassionate. When life feels unstable and the world seems unjust, we are reminded that the ultimate government rests on Christ’s shoulders. His throne has not shifted, and His scepter has not weakened.

To live under His reign is to submit joyfully to His righteous rule, trusting that every command flows from perfect wisdom and love.

  In our daily prayers we should seek a healthy appetite for God's word and revelation of the person of Christ .

PRAYER Heavenly Father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Spirit and power to preach the gospel. Dear Lord Jesus, eternal King, I submit my life to Your righteous reign. Rule my heart with truth, establish Your will in my choices, and let my confidence rest in Your unshakable throne. Amen.

DECLARATION:

Christ reigns forever, and I live securely under His righteous rule.
