BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 5th AUGUST 2026 BEYOND THE NEED; THE WALK Genesis 12:4,7 So Abram went, as the LORD had told him; and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he set out from Harran. The LORD appeared to Abram and said, "To your offspring I will give this land." So he built an altar there to the LORD, who had appeared to him. (NIV) In your relationship with God He looks beyond your need to your walk with Him. Abraham was seventy-five years old when God promised him a son by Sarah but at ninety-nine years he still had no son by Sarah. But he didn't stop serving God, he didn't allow that to deteriorate his walk with God. Genesis 17:1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to him and said, "I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless. God prioritise your walk with Him over your needs. He treasure your relationship with Him above all else. His promise of a son to Abraham came to...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 4th AUGUST 2026 NO SAFER PLACE Acts 17:28 ’For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ’We are his offspring.’ (NIV) Everyone in the world wants a place of safety and security. When there is turmoil and unrest in a place those living there seeks to relocate to a safer place. But very few ever thought of relocating to Christ. Christ is a place as much as your city is a place. It is a tangible place in the spirit where you can live and experience its atmosphere in this physical world.  Our theme scripture says "For in him we live and move and have our being." Who does it refer to? Christ. Christ is not only the Son of God, the Anointed, the Sent One but also a place. A place with its own atmosphere. It was the place the Israelites lived when they came out of Egypt carrying their own atmosphere. A pillar of cloud followed them by day to keep heat away from them, and a pillar of fire ...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 3rd AUGUST 2026 WHATEVER YOU ASK John 16:23 In that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you, my Father will give you WHATEVER YOU ASK IN MY NAME. (NIV) It doesn't cost God anything to give you anything you ask because Jesus' death is the true cost of everything He's given you. By His death He paid for your sins and by His resurrection He brought you into salvation and every good thing there is. When the Lord Jesus said "the Father will give you whatever you ask in my Name" it was based on a legal ground, God had to, because Jesus earned everything good for us. When we pray in His Name, we ask in His stead. It is as though Jesus were asking the Father by Himself, we ask on His merit not ours. And as such the Father cannot say no. The Lord Jesus declares that WHATEVER you ask the Father in my Name He will give you. That's a blank cheque. The ball is in your court. Ask Him whatever you wan...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 2nd AUGUST 2026 CONTINUE IN IT James 1:25 But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and CONTINUES IN IT —not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it —they will be blessed in what they do. (NIV) The perfect law that gives freedom is the law of the Spirit of life - Romans 8:2. The law of the Spirit of life sets you free from the law of sin and death. Having received the life of Christ the Spirit of God brought you into the liberty of God's sons. That means you are free to be who you are in Christ.  As you look into the perfect law, it shows you who you are in Christ, and the Bible says as it shows you continue in it. James 1:25 But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and CONTINUES IN IT —not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it —they will be blessed in what they do. It's not enough to just read about the truth of the Gospel, you have to continue in it. Meditat...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS Daily devotional Pastor Stanley 1st AUGUST 2026 SEND OUT YOUR ANGELS Hebrews 1:14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? (NIV) Every child of God has Angels at his disposal to serve him. But how do they serve us? Not by talking to us or giving us advice or instruction. But by carrying out instructions from our words. They serve us, do things for us by our words. Whenever we speak in line with the truth of the Gospel of Christ Angels receive instructions from our words.  Angels obey our words but not every of our word. They only obey us in the light and provision of the Gospel. Whenever we speak contrary to the Gospel they do nothing, for they understand perfectly the Gospel of Christ. There are those whose Angels are not active because they only become active for us by our words.  You have Angels at your disposal, send them out. You don't have to call them and say go or come. They know what to do when you spe...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 31st JULY 2026 GROW IN GRACE 2 Peter 3:18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen. (NIV) How do you grow in grace? How do you grow in knowledge? You grow in knowledge of God by studying the word of God. You grow in grace by finding out in the word what God has done for you in Christ. Growing in grace is related to growing in knowledge of the Lord Jesus and what He's done for you. Everyone who received Christ has received grace but how much grace you enjoy in your life is dependent on how much you grow in knowledge. Everyone do not experience the same level of grace because only the grace you know work for you. God expects you to grow in Grace. And you have to in order to maximize your potentials in Christ. Only the word of God can grow you. Give yourself to it. You can determine how much grace you want to function in by studying and growing in the word....

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 30th JULY 2026 PRAYING PROPHECY 1 Timothy 1:18 Timothy, my son, I am giving you this command in keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so that by recalling them you may fight the battle well, (NIV) Apostle Paul asked Timothy to recall the prophecies once made about him that through them he could fight the battle well. The 'recalling' here is not a mere remembering but praying them to reality. He had to pray the prophecies into reality. A lot of times when people receive prophecy they just sit and wait hoping for it to come true. But some prophecies don't come true that way. You have to pray them to reality. One of the things prophecy gives is direction. That means, some prophecies direct you to pray in a certain way. It would be unfruitful waiting for them to be fulfilled on their own.  Apostle Paul told Timothy that by praying the prophecies concerning him he could fight the battle well. Some prophecies are t...
