  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...

TIME TO MEDITATE

It's Time To Meditate! — Steemit
Scripture Reading: Genesis 24:61-67

Devotional: “And Isaac went out to meditate in the field in the evening; and he lifted his eyes and looked, and there, the camels were coming” (V. 63)
Anytime we create time to be in the presence of the Lord, we should prepare at the same time to meditate. Meditation is an act of chewing the cur or ruminating over information to get the best out of it. It is an act of looking at information with an inquisitive mind. This is trying to locate the real meaning or trying to locate solution through the information.



The Bible tells us to always meditate on the word of God. (1 Timothy 4:15; Joshua 1:8). It is so, because in the word are the solution to every situations. It is as we meditate in the word of God that the Holy Spirit begins to help us to connect scripture to scripture to see the solution to our situations. We read also that Isaac also practiced this, which he must have learn from his father (Genesis 13:14-17).
Friend, to enjoy the presence of God, you must learn to meditate in His presence. God will be showing you things that your mind cannot fully comprehend and it will take meditation to understand them. This is a major thing that happens whenever we are in the presence of God. His words are deep mysteries; it will take a deep thinking heart to understand them. Peace. 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to always give room to your word in my mind.

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.
