DIVINE WORD MINISTRIES

  BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 11th SEPTEMBER 2026 SALVATION IS BY WORDS "And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter; Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved." (Acts 11:13–14)NIV Beloved, notice what the angel told Cornelius: Peter would come and speak words—and through those words, salvation would come to him and his entire household. This is a powerful revelation. God could not save Cornelius through a vision or a dream or even by Angel, He had to send a man with a message. Why? Because faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God (Romans 10:17). Salvation is transmitted through words. Cornelius was already a devout man—he prayed continually and gave generously. Yet he still needed to hear the words of salvation. Religion, good works, and sincere devotion cannot replace the power of God's Word. When ...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 10th SEPTEMBER 2026 BLESSED WITH EVERY SPIRITUAL BLESSING "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ." (Ephesians 1:3)NIV Beloved, you are not waiting for a blessing—you already possess every spiritual blessing in Christ. This is not a future promise; it is a present reality. Too often, we pray asking God to bless us, as if He is holding back. But the truth is, He has already opened the storehouses of heaven. Every blessing you need for health, wisdom, peace, strength, and victory has been deposited into your spirit the moment you were born again. The phrase "every spiritual blessing" means nothing is missing. You lack nothing. If you are in Christ, you have access to all that God is and all that He has. The question is not whether God has blessed you; the question is whether you are walking in the consciousness of wh...

  BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 9th SEPTEMBER 2026   GOD RAISES THE POOR FROM DUST   "He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap; he seats them with princes, with the princes of his people." (Psalms 113:7-8)NIV   Beloved, no one is too low for God to lift. The God we serve specializes in dramatic reversals—He takes those in the dust and seats them among Princes.   Perhaps you feel overlooked, undervalued, or forgotten. Maybe you've been sitting in the ash heap of disappointment, rejection, or lack. Hear this truth: God sees you. He is not intimidated by the depth of your need; He is empowered by His ability to meet it.   The dust is not your destiny. The ash heap is not your address. The same God who lifted Joseph from the pit to the palace, and Esther from obscurity to the throne, is alive and active in your life today. He does not just lift you out—He lifts you high, seating you in places of honor and inf...

  BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 8th SEPTEMBER 2026   REJOICING COMES IN THE MORNING   "For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning." (Psalms 30:5)NIV   Beloved, if you have been walking through a season of tears, take heart—your morning is coming. The Psalmist reminds us that weeping is temporary, confined to the night, but rejoicing is the portion of the morning.   God's favor is not measured in moments; it spans a lifetime. Whatever hardship you are facing now is just a night season, not your eternal destiny. The darkness you see is not permanent; it is merely the backdrop against which God's light will soon shine brightest.   Hold on. The same God who watched over you through the night is the One who ushers in the dawn. His favor is already positioned to replace your sorrow with songs of deliverance. What the enemy intended for your shame, God...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 7th SEPTEMBER 2026 REJOICE OVER TRIALS Scripture: "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds," (James 1:2) NIV Beloved, the child of God possesses a unique spiritual perspective. While the world views trouble as a tragedy, we understand it as a divine training ground. James does not suggest we "hope" for joy; he commands us to "consider it pure joy." This is a call to spiritual intelligence. When you face trials, do not waste your energy asking, "Why is this happening?" Instead, celebrate the opportunity to prove the strength of your faith. Every pressure is a platform for God's power to manifest. Trials are the fire that burns away dross and leaves only pure gold. They are not here to defeat you, but to make you perfect and complete, lacking nothing. When you realize that God is refining you rather than rejecting you, your heart shifts from compl...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 6th SEPTEMBER 2026 OUR LIGHT AND MOMENTARY TROUBLES "For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." (2 Corinthians 4:17-18 NIV) Beloved, in the heat of the moment, trouble often feels heavy and endless. But as children of the Most High, equipped with the spirit of power, love, and a sound mind, we have a divine perspective to help us stand tall. Paul reminds us that our current challenges, no matter how intense, are merely "light" and "momentary" in the scope of God’s grand plan. If you are facing a mountain today, remember that no mountain lasts forever, but the glory God has prepared for His children lasts for eternity. Don't let temporary difficulties steal your eternal destiny. Shift your gaze from the size of your...
