GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

HUMILITY TO SERVE

HUMILITY TO SERVE           

1 Peter 5:5-11
Devotional Verse: -“Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time” (V. 6)


   Service demands humility. As glorious as service is to the destiny of man, it can only be done when we are humble. God, in his wisdom has put the solution of each person's problem into the hand of others. Yet, when you are bringing solution to people, you still need to be humble before they will accept your services. Yes, people need your services to help them out, but you must be humble before they can allow you into their lives (Genesis 40:5-8).
 
  The word of God says, we should be humbled for God to be able to exalt us. This is because; God gives grace to the humble. No matter how important what you are doing is, people will need to check your attitude before they accept you and allow you over their lives. Yes, they may need to pay you much later, but that will be after they have found you acceptable.
 
   Friend, the spirit of pride will close the door God has created for you. Be mature to look away from the negative comment of men. Keep putting in your best as you serve. You are not sent to everyone and everyone doesn’t need to accept you. As you continue to humbly serve, God will bring people who will celebrate you and encourage you. Keep your profile low; soon, it will be up. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace of a humble heart.
 
“HUMILITY GIVES YOU A SOFT LANDING IN THE HEART OF PEOPLE”

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

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.
