DCLM Daily Manna 5 August 2024 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — The Power Of Praise
TOPIC: The Power Of Praise (DCLM Daily Manna 5 August 2024)
KEY VERSE: “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us” – Romans 8:37 (KJV)
TEXT: Romans 8:31-39 (KJV)
31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
33 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifieth.
34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
One day, as Gloria Gaither sat alone in their darkened living room, tormented and fearful because of the challenges in her family, the Lord sent her a calm and peaceful rest. Joy enveloped her; in euphoria, she burst into a song: “Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, all fear is gone; because I know He holds the future. And life is worth the living just because He lives”.
Our text reveals the encouragement given by Apostle Paul, assuring committed believers of victory through our Lord, Jesus. Arraying the vast arsenal the devil launches against Christians, he stated that these weapons are pitiably feeble against the force on the side of the child of God. Jesus Christ is that Force fighting on behalf of His saints. We cannot fall at the war front because if God is for us, none can withstand us.

Sometimes, believers face battles that make them think they have sinned against God. Maybe not. These battles may result from Satan’s anger towards the believer, human plots and enmity. In every man’s life, there comes a time of trouble in which there seems to be no solution because man lacks the capacity and is limited by a conquered spirit. When you run into any challenge, learn not to complain to people; they may not have the solution. Learn to praise God and rely on Him. As He answered Gloria Gaither, He will answer you.
Praises are powerful. When you have prayed and there is no change to your condition, praise the Lord. Your praises must be from a heart full of faith in God’s faithfulness. Also, learn to believe the written Word even before the walls fall; before the disease departs; before the prison doors are opened, and before seeing answers to your prayers. God is in control of all things about you.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Praise is native to a grateful heart.

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
