SPRINGBOARD DAILY DEVOTIONAL

“Therefore let no man glory in men, for all things are yours”
(1 Corinthians 3:21)
It's 1 Corinthians 6:17  thatsays “But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit”, affirms the fact that the new creation is one spirit with Christ; Christ is the head and you’re the body and the head and the body cannot be separated – they are one. So you cannot say that God sees Christ as righteous and sees the body (you) differently; you cannot say that Christ is rich in all things and then see the body (the new creation) differently.
Hebrews 2:11which says, “For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren” shows us that the measure of Jesus’ acceptance by God is the same measure of your acceptance by God. What Jesus is before God, the Father that’s exactly who and what you are before God too (1 John 4;17).
The realization of this and the full recognition of same is what aids the dispensing of what you need as long as you know its available in the kingdom. That is why as Christians, everyone of us have the right to be happy, prosperous and healthy (Psalm 35:27). You don’t have to beg God to prosper you because as a Christian, you’re not the poor trying to be rich, but the rich born into untold wealth.
The day you became born again, you were called into a heritage of wealth; and as joint-heir with Christ, you don’t have to struggle for anything in life because according to our theme verse (1 Corinthians 3:21) everything you need have been made available to you.
You are the Father’s pride, His crown and beauty and this doesn’t describe everyone in the world, but you that is born again. You’re His highest class of being – superior to angels; you’re a joint-heir with Christ and this emphasizes the fact that all of God’s assets are yours; everything – name it, in the whole world belongs to you; you’re a king and the expression of His character. Living in the consciousness of these facts means to endorse the life of supernatural prosperity.

PRAYER:
 Dear Father, I celebrate my place in Christ. I live in abundance and glory in Jesus name – Amen.

                                                  January 29. “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11) The life that we’ve been called to live in Christ is the transcendent life. It is a life that’s far removed from failure and defeat. It is a life in the word of God. To manifest the glory and splendor of this life, the word of God should become an integral part of us; what we live by. At salvation, we became associates of the God-kind; we’re joint heirs with Christ. Why then should any Christian suffer defeat and pain? The problem is that we’ve not given the word of God its proper place in our lives. God gave us His word to live by. His word is the revelation of His will, nature and character an...

February 18. “The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available (dynamic in its working)” (James 5:16 Amp) The happenings in our environments and the world over calls for our importunity in prayer. Out of ignorance a lot of people are blaming God for certain occurrences in their lives. But if things must change in the direction of God’s original plans and purposes, then we must keep praying. God knows that there’s no situation a child of His cannot change because the divine power necessary to effect such change is already resident in you; it was deposited in you the moment you became born again. God doesn’t expect you to cry out for help or start complaining but He expects you to enforce your victory in the place of prayer. I Kings 17 tells us of Elijah’s  confrontation with Ahab the king where he said, “… As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my ...

                                                  January 19. “And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great” (Genesis 26:13) Child of God, your journey this year has been ordained only in one direction – upward and forward. This is exactly the way God has called you to live your life. He wants your life to be that of progressand advancement – not in theory but practically. It means that at the end of this year, success will be evidently seen in every area of your life. This is because as a joint heir with Christ, you have the nature to be absolutely successful. You must therefore make up your mind to develop a consciousness – a mentality that’s consistent with your personality in Christ. Bible says, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). So, you must refuse thoughts of failure occupy your heart bec...
