  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

COMPLETE TRUST

COMPLETE TRUST                  

Psalms 40:1-8
Devotional - “He has put a new song in my mouth — Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the Lord” (V. 3)





    Our act of total trust in God is an act of honour and worship to Him. When children trust their parents, the parents are pleased. So, also is God. Today, many feel it’s a waste of time to trust God. Many mock when you say you are trusting God. This is because they don’t know what it means to trust God. It is not an irresponsible statement, neither an idle statement.


    The word of God says God take pleasure in those who trust in Him (Psalms 147:11).  The word says, in God I will praise His word, in God I have put my trust. Trusting God is an act of praises to God (Psalms 56:4). To trust God completely means you put your hope and faith in Him. The word of God says concerning Abraham that he hoped in God even when there is no reason to hope (Romans 4:18-22). The word of God says this pleases God and was counted to him for righteousness.

    Friend, you need to observe the areas of your life where you need to trust God. You must be willing to put your hope in Him. This pleases the Lord just like an hundred songs of praises. This is living to see God capable of performing His words in our lives. Trust in God is trust in His words to act on his instructions. This is the responsibility of trust and faith. You will not fail in Jesus name (Psalms 125: 1-5). Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always trust you.

“TRUST IN GOD IS BETTING YOUR LIFE ON GOD’S FAITHFULNESS”

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.
