  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

FAITHFULNESS

FAITHFULNESS       

Matthew 24:45-51
Devotional Verse: -"Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season” (V.45)



   As steward of Christ, it is required that we are faithful in all our services (1 Corinthians 4:1-2). In rendering a service to God, faithfulness to God is not replaceable. Unfaithfulness is considered an act of wickedness in the word of God. That is why each of us must understand what it is to be faithful. To be faithful is to remain firm in your belief in someone. It is to have unwavering commitment to your assignment with a person or an organization.
 
   The word of God described faithful servants to be the one that his master has committed a task to his hand and he will remain committed to the work. The reason it will be possible to remain committed to serve to the end is because, you believe in the success of the task. It is because you can see the future result of the work. Faithful servants always stay strong to complete their work, fulfill their responsibilities, keep their promises and stay committed to the end. They are trust worthy and dependable. 
 
   Friend, it is important you develop the attitude of faithfulness in your service to God either in the house of the Lord or in your office. Remember that, only the faithful servants will be rewarded and be promoted (Matthew 25:21). God watches our faithfulness to qualify us for true riches (Luke 16:11-12). God also check our faithfulness to service as what qualifies us for our own blessing. Always put in your best to be faithful in all you do. You should be doing service as if it is your thing. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me a faithful heart in service

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 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.
