UNMOVED FAITH

UNMOVED FAITH Matthew 15:21-28 Devotional:- “And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table" (V.27) NKJV      Sometimes, by the principle of our response to life or obedience to God, we might not have been qualified for some things. But faith can qualify us. That is why Jesus said He has not come for the rich but that the poor may be rich. He has come to remove the barriers in the lives of people and to release them to their destiny.

INTEREST OF OTHERS

INTEREST OF OTHERS           

Philippians 2:1-4
Devotional Verse: -“Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others” (V. 4)


   As servants of God, it is important we cultivate the attitude of thinking of others first. It is normal for every man to want to think of himself more. This is what we call the good human life. But true servants put the interest of others at heart. Remember, God consider our motive and intention than our action (Matthew 12:8-9).
 
   The word of God says, we should not only look out for our own interest but the interest of others. This is a sign of true humility and love. This is what is lost in the world today. But this is what Jesus meant when He says we must deny self. (Matthew 16:25). In other word, you are not full of self but you have space for others in your thinking. It is when we empty ourselves for the good of others that we truly invest in service. God hates people calling attention to themselves. This is manipulation and not ministry.
 
   Friend, it is wrong for anyone to try and use God for self-goal. True servants allow God to use them to fulfill the purpose and help others. Someone said, our level of servant-hood can be measured by how we respond when others treat us like servants (Matthew 5:41). This is how we can fulfill the purpose of God in our services and our services reward-able before God. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me a true servant’s heart for others.

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.

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.
