PRETENDING

  PRETENDING Proverbs 13:1-10 Devotional:- “There is one who makes himself rich, yet has nothing; And one who makes himself poor, yet has great riches” (v.7) NKJV One other instrument of the devil to steal people’s joy is to fill their hearts with pretence. To pretend is to behave or talk like, or put yourself in a status, that you are not. It is to use what you don’t have to impress people who do not like you. It is to give people a false impression about you. This always results in a show of shame and sorrow. In the scripture we read today, there is the picture of a poor man who pretended to be rich. Who is he deceiving? Today you will see some people borrowing to spray at a party. Some will arrive at a beer parlour and ask everybody to be served, while at home, there is no food, and children's school fees are yet to be paid. Some are known to be very good outside to their secretaries, receptionists and the like, while at home they don’t have any credibility (Proverbs 12:9, Job 2...

HOLY SPIRIT​​​

HELP ME HOLY SPIRIT | Family Life Worship CenterHOLY SPIRIT​​​

Scripture Reading: John 14:25-31
Devotional -“But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you”  (V. 26)



   
The Holy Spirit is the creative force of God. At creation He was there with God (Genesis 1:1-3). Without the Holy Spirit, God will not be able to do much with men. This is because it is through the Holy Spirit that man and God can work together. Man can communicate with God vis-à-vis through the spirit. So, when a man is filled with the Holy Spirit, God can do tremendous things through him. Peter who was a weak man was used by God through the Holy Spirit to preach and safe three thousand souls on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:40-42).


   Jesus said, when we receive the Holy Spirit, He will be our helper. This means, in the place of our weakness, He will teach us all things. There are too many things we don't know that we need for our progress, but the Holy Spirit is a good teacher. Questions you cannot ask anyone, you can ask Him. That is why you should cultivate a life of relationship with Him.


   It is the Holy Spirit that can show you the way to all you need to do to get all you need in this world. He can touch anyone for you (Proverbs 21:1). He knows the thought of the heart of all the people you need to meet and is able to turn them in your favour. He will always guide you to pray aright to get right result. It's your day. Peace!


PRAYER: Lord, help me to always be baptised with the Holy Spirit

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

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.

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.
