A FRIEND

  A FRIEND John 15:9-17  Devotional:- “...but l have called you friends…” (V. 15) In this generation, it is not a common thing to find true friends. This is someone who goes all out to see to your well-being. Someone who wants to identify with you in all situations. Someone who is not feeling fine until he sees you, someone who daily remembers to pray and intercede for you. It can be a terrible thing sometimes when you desire to share your mind with someone, and no one is willing to listen to you, or someone who could offer a little help. Sometimes we could be in need of a little encouragement, but no one to really do it. The people who are supposed to encourage us are the ones who misunderstand us and condemn us. We need to come to the understanding that God is our friend. He is not just your Lord and God. He always wants to listen to you. He is not happy when you are not (Hebrews 4:15). He is always around you. He wants to identify with you in all situations. He is not out t...

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”

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).

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.
