PURPOSE OF LOVE

  PURPOSE OF LOVE Romans 5:6-11 Devotional:- “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us..” (V. 8). NKJV Sometimes we make such a mistake as loving only our lovers. We do not often think that by this we fulfill the Law of Moses and not the law of grace, loving only those who love us and probably hating those who hate us. But this is not true love. If you understand the purpose of love, you will know that love is not needed when everyone is perfect, but most needed because we are not. The scripture we read today demonstrates one of the greatest acts of God’s love to us. And this is a revelation of God’s love to you. Even though you commit sin and He hates sin, yet He loves you. It is for your sake that He sent Jesus, His only son, to die on the cross. See, people may hate you for one reason or another, but God loves you. He so much believed in you that He had to give up His son to die for your sake (1 John 4:9-10). ...

GOD IS GOOD

GOD IS GOOD                  

Psalms 145:8-13
Devotional -“The Lord is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works” (V. 9)



    Praises is when man can see God as being good to them. No heart will be willing to sincerely praise God except they see God being good. Man passes through different season in life. All of them are to work out a good end for us (Romans 8:28). In the midst of our challenging experiences, no one enjoys it. Even Jesus asked God to make amendment in the midst of challenges (Luke 22:42; Hebrews 12:11). But God allows us to pass through it all that it might turn to a testimony for us (Luke 21:13)


    The Bible says, the Lord is good to all. His tender mercies are seen in all His works. If not for the mercy of the Lord, what shall we be saying today (Psalms 124). If it is not the mercy of the Lord, where shall we be today? We all need to know that God is good to us. You need to always see God good to you. He is never wicked. It is in seeing His goodness around you that your heart activates His goodness in your life.

    You need to know that God will be to you as you see Him (Matthew 9:29, Ephesians 3:20). Let your heart always consider Him good (Psalms 135:3). You will find praises of God flowing through your heart to your mouth when you consider Him good to you and He will be able to perform His goodness through your life. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the understanding to see your goodness in all things

“IT IS THE GOODNESS OF GOD THAT SUSTAINS ALL THINGS”

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.
