TREM Daily Devotional 9 August 2024 by God’s Servant Dr Mike Okonkwo: Accept what Christ has Provide for you
DATE: FRIDAY 9TH AUGUST
“For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.” 2 Corinthians 8:9 (KJV)
Child of God, understand the fact that Jesus is wealthy! Therefore, you cannot but desire wealth. When you wake up, expect only good to come to you. What is good is your portion, and there is nothing the devil can do about it.
This is so because Jesus took everything that has to do with you and handed over to you everything that has to do with Him. It was a spiritual exchange. Though He was rich, He became poor so you also might become rich. Never again say you are poor! Stop looking at your pocket! Instead, accept what He has provided for you.
When you accept that you are rich, then heaven will move everything on your path to ensure that there is money in your pocket.
That is why the most remarkable thing any believer can do is to believe. For instance, when the devil strikes with sickness, receive the healing that has been provided. If Jesus cannot be sick, you know you cannot be sick.
The assignment you have is to believe. When you believe in the finished work of Christ on your behalf, you begin to operate in the realm of rest. It is all about Jesus and what He has already made available for you. You don’t have anything to do with it. He did it all for you!
Don’t reject what has been paid for by Jesus Christ. Without Him, you will be embarrassed. Without Him, you will see shame. Your path is to receive.
That is what you are called to do as a believer. Believe and receive! Begin to function from a position of rest. He has finished it all. He cannot be working, and you are also working simultaneously.
The Psalmist says in Psalms 121:4: ‘’He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep’’. That means He is awake for your sake. That should give you rest.

Heavenly Father,
I come to You in humility and repentance, acknowledging my sins and my need for Your grace. Lord Jesus, I believe You are the Son of God, who died for my sins and rose again to give me eternal life. I confess You as my Savior and Lord.
Forgive me, cleanse me with Your precious blood, and fill me with Your Holy Spirit. I turn away from my sinful ways and open my heart to You. Take control of my life and guide me in Your truth.
