BEING HELP

  BEING HELP Romans 12:9-20 Devotional:- “Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality” (V. 13) NIV There is hardly anyone in the world who does not need help, except that they are not making any move to make something happen. So help is a need of people who are looking forward, people who have vision or people who are pursuing a life goal. If you consider yourself in need of help, then you are just one of the people on the path of success. This help could vary from the need for the right people’s assistance, counselling, or money and material. We need to understand with clarity that at any period in time, we will surely reap what we have sown (Galatians 6:7). And so we must keep sowing help into the life of others to reap help. The bible says, “Share with people who are in need“ Let us be careful not to be too need-conscious that you don’t remember to do good to others. There are people you are far better off. There are people around us who look at us as priv...

BRINGING HIM PLEASURE

BRINGING HIM PLEASURE               

John 4:19-26
Devotional: -“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him” (V. 23)



   Praises is bringing pleasure to God. This is what God expect from us always. Just like a wise son will bring joy to his father, so is God our maker is expecting of us. Whenever a son makes the father glad, the father will willingly bless the son, so it is with God and man. We bring pleasure to God whenever we are praising Him.



   The word of God says, God is seeking those who will worship Him. Remember, praises and worship is the same before God. God is seeking those who will worship Him because it is in this He can inject us with His spirit and His grace. When He made us, He didn’t make us to live without Him (John 15:5). That was the reason He put His spirit in us (Genesis 2:7). He didn’t do this for another creature. It is His spirit in us that made us to have His likeness (Genesis 1:27). So, we are to keep quality relationship with Him to be able to fulfill our purpose of creation. So, He is seeking our worship like a man seeks a woman. This is because the man has something to deposit in the woman before she can fulfill her purpose on earth.

   So, we bring God this relational pleasure when we praise Him (Isaiah 43:21). We bring pleasure when we trust Him completely (Proverbs 3:5-6). We bring God pleasure when we obey Him wholeheartedly (Psalms 119:33-34). We bring Him pleasure when we praise Him continually (1 Thessalonians 5:18; Psalms 119:164). We bring Him pleasure when we serve Him (Psalms 33:15). Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me to bring you pleasure in all that I do

“YOU CAN’T BE MAKING GOD GLAD AND REMAIN IN SORROW”

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.
