  JOYFUL COMPANION  Luke 1:37-45 Devotional:- “For indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy” (v.44) NKJV We must know that sooner or later, we will always look like the people we are moving with. God’s word says, he that walks with the wise shall be wise and the companion of fools shall be destroyed (Proverbs 13:20). This means that what we gain from the surroundings of our associates has a very strong influence upon our life. If a man walks with people who don’t know or appreciate joy, he may not also experience joy. We read about the visitation of Mary to Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist. Since two of them carry unique children of divine significance, they both have the Spirit of God in them. This brings about a joyful effect. As soon as Elizabeth heard the voice of Mary, the baby leaped for joy. You therefore need to understand that the richest place you need to seek to be is where God’s children are gathe...

LISTENING TO GOD

Listening To God | Devotional Reading Plan | YouVersion BibleScripture Reading: Deuteronomy 18:15-22

Devotional: 
“I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brethren, and will put My words in His mouth, and He shall speak to them all that I command Him” (V. 18)
Whenever we are in the presence of God alone, God will speak to us. That is why we must allow the ear of our spirit to be open to God. Being in the presence of God is for communication between us and God. So, as we speak our mind to Him, He also wants to speak His mind to us. The challenge is that many often want to pour out their mind to God, but they do not have the gift of listening.
The word of God told us that a true prophet will hear from God and speak to the people. Please don’t limit this only to the ministry of a prophet. This is for all children of God. Any time we are in His presence, He will want to speak to us. That is why you must learn to listen.
He said ask and I will answer (Matthew 7:7). So, there is time to ask and there is time to listen in His presence. To enjoy the opening of your spiritual ear, you must learn to communicate with Him in the language of the Holy Spirit with a heart of understanding. As you do this, the two ways will be opened. God can hear you and you can hear Him. You will speak and God will speak. This is the way to open up a time of conversation between you and your God (John 12:27-30). Then you will be refreshed. Peace.
PRAYER: Lord, let the ears of my spirit be open to you
“WHEN YOU CAN HEAR FROM GOD, ALL MEN WILL LISTEN TO YOU”

MASTER’S MINAS

MASTER’S MINAS Luke 19:11-27 Devotional:- “So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, 'Do business till I come” (V. 13) NKJV      The word of God instructs us to do business. The Bible did not advise us to do business but it commanded us. That is why it would be wrong for you and me to be without a business. That makes idleness a crime against self (1 Thessalonians 4:11). Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.
