  MEEKNESS Numbers 12:1-10 Devotional:- “(Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all men who were on the face of the earth.)” (v.3) NKJV A great virtue that will help a man sustain a life of joy is meekness. This is an act of being gentle and ready to accept instructions and corrections. This is an act of not being willing to struggle with God but to easily submit to His will. Jesus said this kind of people will inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5). This is because they will always be willing to take instruction and correction. Sometimes correction or discipline of love could be harsh or strong, but a meek person has the fortitude to bear it and rejoice at it because he knows that such will always get him better and stronger. The meek are willing to wait to receive the help of God. He is simple when it comes to accepting the will of God. To him, God is always good, which makes him ever thankful and joyful. This is the reason God cannot but give them a great portion of the earth. S...

GREATNESS           

Mark 10:35-45
Devotional Verse:-“Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (V. 43)



   God who is our maker is a great God and all His works are great. He cannot make anyone that is not capable of been great. The ability of greatness is in everyone. No one can blame God for his/her life not been great. All that God need to do in making us great has been done.

  Jesus says, whoever want to become great should be the servant. The disciple seems to be clamoring for the first position, but Jesus showed them the mystery of greatness which is in service. To be great is to be of a high value in what you do. It is to be of great importance and blessing to multitude of people. Jesus was not the richest man on earth when He was physically present on earth, but He was the most needed. Though, He has ascended to heaven over 2000 years ago, we are all still in need of Him. This was not because, He was living as an Aristotle, but He was solving problems (Acts 10:38).

   Friend, many things will give you temporary greatness in this world, but service to God and to humanity will give you eternal greatness. Today, the world is celebrating Nelson Mandela day. This is not because he was giving gift to his people, but the sacrifice he made for his people. When you allow God to use you to help others at your level, you are in for greatness. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, make me a solution to my generation.

“WHEN YOU KEY INTO SERVICE, YOU ARE KEYING INTO GREATNESS”

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 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.
