  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

PRAISES AND WORSHIP

How Women Lead the Way in Reaping the Reward of Praise and Worship ...
Scripture Reading: Psalms 34:1-10 

Devotional: “I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth” (V. 1)

Time in the presence of God is always a time to worship and praise the Lord. The time spent with God is not only for us but also for God. Therefore, it is first a time to bless the Lord with our praise and worship. If the door of the throne room of God will be widely open to us, then we must know that praises and worship are the password (Psalms 100:4)
The Psalmist said, “I will bless the Lord at all times and His praises shall continually be in my mouth”. Every time you want to be sure that the presence of God is with you, you must learn to praise Him. That is why you don’t have to do that once a while. It is a thing of every time.

Also, whenever you are alone with the Lord, you must access the throne room of God with praises. Don’t be too anxious of your needs to the point of starting your communication with God with the needs. Therefore, a fellowship time in His presence should always start with praises. This is because He is doing so much for you already. He is your healer, your protection, your deliverer from all evil agenda; He is your help in trouble. So, learn to thank Him for what He is doing before presenting other needs. Heaven can always have His presence because they are always praising God (Psalms 22:3). As you praise Him often, He will not even let you ask before doing things for you sometimes. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, let your praises always fill my mouth

“IF YOU CAN BE PRAISEFUL, YOU WILL NOT BE EMPTY”

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.
