THANK HIM FOR ALL

  THANK HIM FOR ALL Zechariah 4:1-10 Devotional:- “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house; His hands shall also finish it and thou shalt know that the Lord of hosts hath sent me unto you” (V. 9) KJV In such a season as this, one of the weapons of the devil to steal the joy of many is discouragement. The enemy will make them see that God has not been good to them. He will make us to think of what God has not done, and not what He has done. He will make us compare ourselves to others and so one will see other people as better.   God can provide all that you need, and He is not mindful or unfaithful to you. He gave you the one you have today, but all that is good for your life. He will also give you if you can wait on Him by faith. Such time like this should challenge us to become better to do better. Every time you are not happy with your current situation, just know that a change is about to take place in your life. It is now you who will determine ...

SOCIAL CAPITAL​​​​

SOCIAL CAPITAL​​​​

Luke 16:1-13
Devotional-"And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when you fail, they may receive you into an everlasting home”  (V. 9)



    One of the most potent and widely misunderstood virtue is that of social capita.  Many have dashed their destinies because of their wrong view of this. Many turned wicked and some turned to organizing robbery and kidnapping of their friends for money since their expectations from  people they depended on are not forth coming. It is the reason why crime is increasing in the land today. This is because people feel someone have and he did not give them. So, they want to get their share anyway.


   Jesus told a parable about a servant whose master wanted to sack. In his hopelessness he started treating the customers well with his masters good. This is out rightly wrong but the master commended him for something. Social capital is capital deposited in people to later collect it back even with interest without they knowing. See, you have something or you know something that can help others, use it to help. It is the help you render to someone today that becomes your social capital harvest tomorrow.

  Friend, observe that most of the help you enjoy are often from people you have helped before. To think because you are just playing and laughing with people will qualify you for their things is not really true. Don't be lazy or idle. Your gift and talents, your opportunities are for social capital investment. I pity those who have been in church for ten years and bless nobody either with their ability or substance. Don't be proud. Be a blessing and you shall be blessed. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, give me the wisdom of a contributor.

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.

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.
