  WHEN GOD SEEMS DISTANT  Isaiah 8:11-18 Devotional:- “And I will wait on the LORD, Who hides His face from the house of Jacob; And I will hope in Him” (V.17) God is real no matter how anyone feels. Since we are made to worship God whether it is going well or not we must always give all the glory to Him. It is easy to worship God when things are going well, but situations are not always pleasant. That is why we must learn to always give God glory in all situations. The richest of worship is during pains or trails. We must learn to trust God, surrender and love God when we don’t feel his presence. In our scripture today the man of God said ‘’I will trust and place my trust in Him even when God is hidden‘’. True friendship is often tested by distance and inability to communicate. It takes close time and distant time to grow relationship. That is why to mature your relationship with God He will test you with period of seeming separation, feeling abandoned or forgotten.

Scripture Reading: Job 32:1-9

Devotional Verse –
“But there is a spirit within people, the breath of the Almighty within them, that makes them intelligent” (V. 8)

Man in his nature can only see the physical things but perceive spiritual things. Most people have little or no understanding of the affairs of the spirit. Man needs to realize that he is not just spiritual, but he is a spirit made in likeness of God who is a Spirit (Genesis 1:20-27). It is important we know that man receives from God through his spirit (John 3:27).


The word of God says there is a spirit in every man but it is the breath of God that gives them understanding. This talks about the impact of the Spirit in the life of every man. It is by our spirit that we can connect with God because He is a Spirit (John 4:24). We can therefore receive the ability to prosper by His breath on us. His breath on us comes to inspire our mind to action. Our understanding becomes receptive to information as the spirit breathe on us (Ephesians 1:17-18). This is how God empower us to prosper.

We will be able to connect with God for this ability to prosper as we fellowship in His presence regularly. This should be mostly personal time with God alone or with the church (Psalms 84:7). That is why each of us as children of God should not joke with the issue of fellowship with God. It is for us to contact revelation for the strength of the spirit. This in turn makes us intelligence to prosper. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to enjoy the blessing of your Spirit
“YOU ARE HELPLESS WITHOUT THE HELP OF THE SPIRIT”

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

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.
