BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 28th JUNE 2026 THE MYSTERY REVEALED Colossians 1:26-27 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: (KJV) God's mystery (hidden secret, wisdom) from ages and generations is revealed to those who believe. This mystery is first, Christ, then the church. The church is a mystery as Christ is a mystery. Colossians 2:2 ...so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, Christ and His body the church is the mystery hidden from ages and generations. Colossians 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church:... The church is the fullness of Christ, that is, His completeness. Christ is not complete without His body the Church. Jesus and the Church is Christ...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 27th JUNE 2026 LOVE -- A CONTINUOUS DEBT Romans 13:8 Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. (NIV) Love is a debt which we will never finish paying and can't stop paying. Loving is beyond willingness, want or convenient. You are not going to love others because you are willing to or want to or convenient for you. No! But because it is a debt and there is a law or command that says you must pay it.  John 13:34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. Loving people is not about what is convenient for you or what you want but what God commands. Jesus said "...As I have loved you, so you MUST love one another."  How did he love us? He loved us beyond Himself. John 15:12-14 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down o...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 26th JUNE 2026 GOD HAS POWER TO DO Romans 4:21 being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. (NIV) Coming towards the end of the year some might look back to what the Lord has done for them during the year and find that some promises, words or prophecies are yet to be fulfilled. Maybe at the beginning of the year or during the year you received a prophecy in the Word concerning what God would do for you in the year but now the year is almost over and nothing has happened in regard to that.  For Abraham it was the same. God promised him a son that would be his heir and also heir of the covenant and promise, but Abraham was almost a hundred years old and still had no son. Logically and all otherwise it was over, time had past him, he had become an old man. But Abraham didn't give up on God and His promise. He was fully persuaded that God had power to do what He promised. Romans 4:21 being fully persuaded th...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 25th JUNE 2026 HE WAS BORN FOR US Isaiah 9:6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (NIV) Jesus' birth, death and resurrection was for us. He was born of man so we could be born of God. He put on flesh so we could put on divinity. He became man so we could become god. It was all for us. The above verse says "...and the government will be on his shoulders." Shoulder is a part of the body not the head. Jesus is the head of His body the church. The government, rulership and authority is on the shoulder of the church. He came to put us in government, rulership and authority. We put us in charge.  Jesus didn't need victory over satan. He was in the highest heaven far above all things, and satan was on earth under His feet. His victory over satan was for us. 1 Corinthians 15:...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 24th JUNE 2026 GOD HAS MADE YOU Romans 4:17 As it is written: "I have made you a father of many nations." He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed —the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not. (NIV) God spoke these words in the above verse to Abraham at the time he had no child. He said to him "I have made you a father of many nations." Notice he didn't say "I will make you a father of many nations." God speaks 'fulfilled-word', anything He says to you is actually His reality. God knew His word concerning Abraham was already fulfilled though he was yet to walk in it physically. Like Abraham God has made you. Whatever you desire to be or achieve He has already made it possible. Like Abraham you have to find that spoken word and hold on to it not weakening in faith through unbelief but strong in faith giving glory to God.  You may look into th...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 23rd JUNE 2026 REJOICE IN THE LORD ALWAYS Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! (NIV) The Apostle Paul writing to the Church in Philippi, said they should rejoice in the Lord always. He didn't say they should rejoice in themselves but in the Lord. That calls for spiritual insight.  It takes spiritual insight to see what we got in the Lord and rejoice. When you are ask to rejoice over something it means that it holds significance and value. No nobody would ask you to rejoice over something that's not to your advantage. We have everything to our advantage in Christ, and it is our responsibility to recognize them and rejoice.  Looking at your physical environment and, maybe the circumstances of your life you might have reasons to feel bad and dejected. But looking in the Lord and who you are in Him, you would find not only the glorious you but also answers to all your questions.  When ...
