TIME OF JOY Philippians 4:1-7 Devotional:- “Rejoice in the Lord always: and again l say, rejoice.” (V. 4) KJV One of the most important and most needed virtues of life is joy. When joy is not in place, many things may not be in place. It is joy that eases a man off the tension of life. It is joy that puts men always in health (Proverbs 17:22). It is joy that destroys our doubt. It is the joy in the Lord that increases our faith. It is joy that refreshes our minds and gives us mental richness. There are many more things that joy does in our lives, yet it looks so scarce in the lives of many. This is because there are not many pleasant situations that will help them rejoice. But you, as a believer, should know that you cannot afford to live in sorrow, for without joy, life will be totally in shambles. It is with joy that we can bring our situation back to life and beauty (Isaiah 12:3). It is the strength of life (Nehemiah 8:10). The coming of Jesus to the world brought the joy that would...

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.

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.
