  GROWING Ephesians 4:9-16 Devotional:- “But, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head of Christ” (V. 15) God’s plan and desire is that we grow up. So many Christian today are growing older but not growing up. Many are stocked in perpetual spiritual infancy. This is because they never intend to grow. Spiritual growth is not automatic, it takes intentional commitment. You must want to grow, decide to grow, make an effort and persist in growing. Discipleship is the process of becoming like Christ (Matthew 10:25). In your spiritual growth, God has a part and you have a part. To be Christ-like you will need to make Christ like choices and depend on the Holy Spirit to help you fulfill those choices. The moment you are ready, you will need to let go of some old routines and develop some new habits. You will need to intentionally change the way you are thinking (Philippians 2:12-13). To work out your salvation with fear and trembling means to take you...

PURSUE​​​​

1 Thessalonians 5:12-22
Devotional- “See that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all”  (V. 15)




    The word pursue simply talk about a race. This is not just in a tournament alone but in all endeavors of life. This means what you are intending to create or achieve are also running, they are not static. So, if you don't pursue them you cannot catch up with them. This is a strong truth about life and this is true of anything worth being achieved.

    The word of God says, you should pursue what is good for yourself and for others. This is because good things seems to be running away from people. It is like good things don't want anyone to achieve them. So, it demands that you make up your mind and run as fast as you can, to create your own desire. Many people only wants to run for a while and relax. Unfortunately, achievement of life does not recognize our different inabilities. There is a speed by which you must be running (1 Corinthians 9:24)

    Friend, it is time to face the reality about your life. The ability of God to run and obtain is in you, but you must be willing to run. There is no one to run for you in many of the race of life. God is the giver of strength (Isaiah 40:28-31). You need to study the word of God for your strength (Psalms 119:97-100). Pick other relevant books for your strength ( Proverbs 24:5). Then, discipline yourself to run and you will create your own desire. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to run in the right direction for my achievements

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 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.
