MY DAILY COVENANT WITH GOD DEVOTIONAL
Devotion for Sunday July 5,
2020
Topic: Anointing Break Yokes
Text: Isaiah 10:24 – 34
God's
purpose was to use the Assyrians not to destroy, but to purify his people.
Unfortunately, they abused it. Now God is assuring his people that though
Assyria may treat them badly as Egypt did to their forefather, but that bondage
will be broken (Isaiah 10:25). According to prophet Isaiah, God will raise a
scourge against Assyria which will lead to breaking of the yoke of bondage (Isaiah
10:27).
Before
now, King Hezekiah has been under heavy bondage of the Assyrians. This was a
grievous yoke and burden to them, but they shall no more pay that tribute to
the king of Assyria. Before this invasion he exacted from them (2 Kings 18:14).
Now
they shall be no longer at his service, nor lie at his mercy, as they have
done; nor shall he ever again put the country under contribution. This was the
assurance from God.
God
is never pleased to see His children suffer especially in the hands of the
unbelievers. Most times He allows them to have upper hand against us because of
His jealous love for us so we can realize our faults and turn back to Him.
By
virtue of our repentance, we have been anointed of God. It is that anointing
that will break every yoke of bondage of sin and the devil in our lives. Every
child of God carries this anointing. For this reason God gave the charge in
Psalm 105:15.
In
the name of God, who ordained this devotion, I decree today that every yoke on
your neck; be it sin, indebtedness, poverty, sickness, etc. will be broken in
Jesus name. This is your privilege as a Christian.
Food for Thought: What does Psalm 105:15 imply?
Memory verse: Isaiah 10:27
Prayer:
God, let your anointing upon my life break every yoke of sin, bondage,
captivity, sickness, demonic influence, etc. in my life and family.
