GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

AVAILABILITY

AVAILABILITY            

2 Timothy 2:3-13
Devotional Verse -“No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier” (V. 4)


   In our service to God either in our kingdom service or in the office, effectiveness demands our availability. It is important you know that availability preceded ability. No matter how able a man is, if he is not available, someone else will have to do the job. So, making yourself available is so vital to your effectiveness in the service of God.
 
   The word of God says, no one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the civilian affairs that will be able to please the one that employs him as a soldier. This simply means, there is need to focus on our services to God. Whichever area you are serving the Lord, be effectively available. So many want to serve but they don't have time. The truth is that, there will always be time for things of value to us. That is why you must create time, out of no time to serve your God. Make it of utmost priority (Matthew 6:33). That is why the Bible expect us to love God above all things (Luke 14:26-27).
 
   If you only serve when it is convenient for you, then you are not a real servant. You must do your best to be available for God whenever He calls for your service even if it is inconvenient. Remember, humility is when you can drop your plan to fulfill His assignment. When God can interrupt your time and schedule, that is when He is truly your Lord. See your service to God as an opportunity and not obligation. Then your service will be reward-able. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the heart of a true servant
 
“AVAILABILITY SUPERSEDES ABILITY”

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.

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.
