  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

TRUST IN GOD​​

TRUST IN GOD​​

Jeremiah 17:1-10
Devotional-"Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, And whose hope is the LORD”  (V. 7)



   It's important we understand the power of trusting the Lord in helping us to create our desire in this world. So many people do not bother to grow the wisdom of trusting in the Lord. Many have concluded that trusting in the Lord does not work. Instead of learning the principle, they give up on God. They have no patience to let their prayers work out. They expect God to work at their pace. They always turn to men instead of turning to God. Friend, what will happen the day your friends can't meet your need and you have not train yourself to trust in God? It will really be bad.

   Trusting God helps you create solution in an honorable way. It helps you to be self sufficient and make you a blessing and not a burden. Often, God will use people when you trust Him but not at your manipulation (Proverbs 21:1). To trust in God is to remove your hope and expectation from men and put it in God (Jeremiah 17:5). Call on Him when you have needs and learn to pray till He direct you (John 2:5; Proverbs 3:5-6; Jeremiah 33:3). When you trust in Him only, you will be patience to receive an answer from Him. He will guide you to solution.

    Friend, there will always be limitations on the way of those who put man first, who think “that man and that man” instead of God. See, God has enough resources to take care of all human needs. When He directs you to men, you are sure of His flow. The giver will be happy and be bless and the receiver will be joyful. This is win-win case without shame. God will give you light. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always trust in you.

“TRUST IN GOD WILL CREATE HELP WITHOUT SHAME”

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 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.
