Message: -

Consecration to Christ means that you are completely immersed in Him. True consecration is really lacking these days. Many people are holding on to Jesus with one hand and the world with the other. How do you explain a Christian who claims to have given his life to Christ but consults a witch doctor over a negative situation that has lingered for long? CLICK HERE FOR PREVIOUS RCCG OPEN HEAVEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL

A consecrated fellow may go through a lot of suffering for the Lord, but he will count it all Joy as long as God is still with him.

I once saw someone on Dove Television saying that, in the past, the only thing Christians cared about was being used of God, but these days, people are more interested in how they can use God. Many Christian sisters compromise their faith because they want to get married; many wear revealing clothes to attract men, some attend ungodly gatherings with the hope of finding their future spouse there, while some even have sex before marriage so as not to lose the man.

There was this female missionary in a hostile community who was abducted and handcuffed early on her wedding day. Instead of crying, she smiled, kissed the handcuffs and said “Lord, I didn’t know I was so special that You didn’t want to share me with anyone else. How beautiful is Your wedding ring to me.” She was so consecrated that instead of seeing a failed wedding ceremony, she saw the handcuff as a ring, symbolic of her divine union with Christ. You May Also like: Open Heavens — Stagnant Water Pastor E.
