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). ...

FULFILLMENT

FULFILLMENT         

2 Timothy 4:1-8
Devotional Verse:-“For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand” (V. 6)



    
    Service is allowing God to use you to fulfill His plan on earth. The truth is that if man is not allowing God to use him, the enemy will keep using him (Deuteronomy 28:46-47). People need to yield to God for God to use them, but nobody really need to yield to the devil, he goes about seeking whom he may devour (John 10:10). God made man to serve His purpose and establish His will on earth. All that God need to package in man to fulfill this calling is in man. Your fulfillment is only in serving the Lord.

   Paul the Apostle said, I am already being poured out as a drink offering. This is a statement of fulfillment. It simply means, all that God had put in me to deliver to the world has been delivered. This is truly a sense of fulfillment. It is in service of the Lord that a man can be used by the Lord to fulfill his destiny. To fulfill a destiny; is to have written all the books you are to write, and carry out all the vision you are to carry out etc.

  Friend, the greatest joy of your life is in serving the Lord. Humble yourself to be part of those who serve the Lord. This can happen in the house or in the office, in the community or in the house of the Lord. Be willing to use all that the Lord has given you to solve problems where you are. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be plugged to my place of fulfillment on earth.

“ONLY YOUR MAKER CAN USE YOU TO BE FULFILLED”

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 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.
