  WISDOM Luke 21:7-19  Devotional:- “for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or resist.” (V.15) NKJV It is impossible for a man to succeed in this world without wisdom. This is because we are living in a world that is so terrible and perverse. The spirit of the enemy has so much advanced in the children of the world, and we will need a super wisdom to overcome them. But thanks be to God. Wisdom is one of the gifts of love we have from God in the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:4-11). The wisdom we have in God is not the earthly wisdom but divine and heavenly. This makes it possible for us to rule on the earth with heavenly wisdom. But you and I must know how to employ this wisdom. This is by asking and giving room for the operation of the Holy Spirit upon our mind. This we can do by acknowledging the Holy Spirit around us and asking Him to guide us to understanding and truth in every situation (John 14:26). Get to know tha...

CHOOSE TO SERVE GOD

CHOOSE TO SERVE GOD         

Joshua 24:14-24
Devotional Verse:-“And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." (V. 15)



    At creation, God made man a free moral agent. So, man is a creature of choice. Man is fashioned to process spiritual thing and be able to carry it out in the physical world by the use of our soul. So, by the soul of man, we can easily be used by either the spirit of God or the spirit of the devil to carry out their agenda on earth.

    The servant of God, Joshua was used by the Lord to speak to the children of Israel of the need to make a choice of who to serve. Notice that they have to make their choice between God and idols. This is always the kind of situation man is always confronted with in many situation. The God of money and materials are always attempting to steal our heart from serving the Lord in truth (Luke 4:6-7). Immediate gratification is always a temptation inhibiting the choice of man to serve.

Friend, we are in a time that you can no longer trade anything with service of God. Make up your mind to serve your maker. Many have soil their garment of righteousness because of the things of this word. Make up your mind to serve God in all you do either at home, community or in the office. God is faithful to reward those who serve Him. You shall be rewarded in Jesus name. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always choose to serve you.

“WHOEVER YOU CHOOSE TO SERVE IS YOUR LORD”

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.
