“For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator” (Hebrews 9:16).
In our earthly legal system, a last will and testament can’t be activated until the death of the person who wrote it. The new covenant of grace works the same way; it was necessary for Jesus to die for us to be freed from the law and inherit all the grace-based promises He made to us.

“Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved (tested by trial), a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth” (2 Timothy 2:15, AMPC).
Spiritual clarity comes from diligent study and accurate handling of Scripture, and spiritual integrity comes through disciplined learning and truthfulness. We must therefore practice excellence in both scriptural knowledge and application.

“So be content with who you are, and don’t put on airs. God’s strong hand is on you; he’ll promote you at the right time. Live carefree before God; he is most careful with you” (1 Peter 5:6, 7, MSG).
The world teaches us to push our own agenda in a “dog-eat-dog” environment, but God tells us differently. He encourages humility and trust, reminding us that His timing for promotion is perfect.

“Don’t work yourself into the spotlight; don’t push your way into the place of prominence. It’s better to be promoted to a place of honor than face humiliation by being demoted” (Proverbs 25:6, 7, MSG).
Self-promotion often leads to embarrassment; there’s a lot to be said for humility and patience. True honor comes when we allow God (and others) to elevate us in His timing, not ours.

“He will even deliver the one [for whom you intercede] who is not innocent; yes, he will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands” (Job 22:30, AMPC).
Everything God does is motivated by His love for us; He’s therefore more than willing to deliver even the ungodly and dispatch the Holy Spirit to begin changing them on the inside. This is one of the things intercessory prayers can do.

“Far above all rule and authority and power and dominion and every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age and in this world, but also in the age and the world which are to come. And He has put all things under His feet and has appointed Him the universal and supreme Head of the church [a headship exercised throughout the church]” (Ephesians 1:21, 22, AMPC).
Christ has absolute supremacy over every form of power and title, both now and forever. As believers who are already seated at the right hand of the Father, we share that same authority.
January 12
“And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:6).
Believers have a spiritual position of authority and unity with Christ. Because of His finished works, we can live with confidence, knowing we share in His victory and reign with Him.

“The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men, Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ? Then they went out of the city, and came unto him” (John 4:28-30).
The testimony of one outcast Samaritan woman who came face-to-face with God sparked curiosity and led others to seek Him for themselves. Encountering Jesus transforms our priorities and compels us to share the good news.

“And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither. And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand” (Genesis 39:1-3).
Even in unfavorable circumstances, God’s presence brings favor and success. Supernatural blessings are evident to others when we remain faithful; this was true for Joseph and it’s true for us as well.
