TREM DEVOTIONAL FOR 6TH SEPTEMBER 2024
In the book of the generation of Jesus Christ, God chose Abraham as the beginning of the messianic line. Abraham had Ismael by Haggai and Isaac by Sarah, and he had six other children through another woman called Keturah. Isaac became the messianic line and had two children, Esau and Jacob, through Rebecca. When Jacob and Esau were born, Jacob became the next in that line of the messianic line. Jacob also had twelve sons and a daughter called Diana. Among the children of Jacob, Judah became the Messianic line, and he gave birth to Perez and Zara through an illicit relationship with his daughter-in-law, Tamar. Imagine a man who carried the messianic mantle and yet gave birth to Pharez and Zara out of wedlock. When you check the scriptures, you will discover that Pharez also made it into the lineage of the Messiah. His circumstance of birth didn’t stop him.
Beloved, you don’t have any excuse for not fulfilling God’s purpose for your life, regardless of your background or the circumstances surrounding your birth. You are connected to God, and you are operating under grace. That is all that matters!
There is no accident in God! Everyone living has a divine purpose to fulfill. God’s Prophetic hand is upon you. It does not matter what man thinks. What matters is what God thinks. Your family background is no excuse for failure. It is not your background that matters but what you do with yourself.
Some believers are so lazy. They blame every person but themselves. Stop the blame game! It will take you nowhere! Rise and take responsibility for your life. If you fail to sing your song, no one else will sing it. You cannot afford to play games. Rise to the full potential of who God has made you. Stop complaining about your family background! It cannot stop you.
