  DESIGNED TO SERVE GOD Psalm 139:13-18 Devotional:- “Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand!” (V. 16 NLT)   God designed and formed you to fit into what He wants you to do to serve Him. The intended function determines the form of a building, so also your life. You are the way you are because you were made for specific ministry (Ephesians 2:10) Our scripture today simply means nothing that happens in your life is insignificant. God will never waste any ability unless He intend to use it for His glory (1 Peter 2:9) Before God will give you any assignment, He must have packaged you for it. This packaging is what we call shape (Jeremiah 1:5). Let us look at the meaning of each letter in your shape. The ‘S’ represents Spiritual gifts. These are special God-empowered abilities for serving Him, giving only to believers (1 Cor. 2:14). These gift cannot be bought because they are given by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12:11). We are to use them to benefit on...

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”

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
