  NATURE OF LOVE I Corinthians 13:1-8  Devotional:- "suffers long and is kind .. does not envy.. does not parade itself…” (V. 4). Since men do not have the actual understanding of love, they turn it into lust. And now it is lust most people call love. It is the reason for most frustration and discouragement today. The scripture we read today revealed to us the true nature of love. It reveals to us that no man’s service shall be acceptable or profitable until he puts in love (v. 1-3). The beautiful thing about the nature oflove is that it is the nature of God, for God is love (1 John 4:8). And if God dwells in us, love should also be demonstrated in us. The scripture says, love suffers long, that is why God loves to forgive his own people. Several times we have turned away from him, yet He does not turn away from us. He still looks for us. So also we should do for all we love. Love is kind, and that is why God has been kind to us. He doesn’t condemn us; He wants us to repent (E...

CREATING PROVISION​​​​

CREATING PROVISION​​​​
Matthew 17:24-27
Devotional- “Nevertheless, lest we offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a piece of money; take that and give it to them for Me and you." (V. 27)


    Every man or woman must learn how to create their own money. He that does not know how to create his own medium of financial flow will not be able to achieve so much in this world. The world have no respect for a man who cannot achieve great things. So, you must learn how to command money to respond to you especially in time of needs.


   The tax collector came and was expecting Jesus and His disciples to pay their taxes. At that moment the treasurer among the disciples might not be around and Jesus had to create how to pay their taxes. There is a need to learn from this. Note that Jesus instructed Peter to go and catch a fish and not a rat. This was because Peter was a fisherman. That is why you also need to have a job or business. It is there God will often channel help to you. Peter obeyed the Lord and the rest was a testimony.

   God expect each one to have something doing i.e. a means of income. God hates idleness (1 Thessalonians 4:10-12). Your money is in your place of labour. That is why you should be faithful and loyal there.(Luke 16:10-12). When you are in need, ask God for what to do (Proverbs 3:5-6; Psalms 37:23-25; Isaiah 48:7). Be sure that you are first faithful to God in your finances and God will not allow you to be stranded financially (Malachi 3:10-12). Also be sure that you affect lives and keep fulfilling the purpose of God in all you do. He will always supply your need. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, teach me the way to financial grace

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). 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

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.
