  NATURE OF LOVE I Corinthians 13:1-8  Devotional:- "suffers long and is kind .. does not envy.. does not parade itself…” (V. 4). Since men do not have the actual understanding of love, they turn it into lust. And now it is lust most people call love. It is the reason for most frustration and discouragement today. The scripture we read today revealed to us the true nature of love. It reveals to us that no man’s service shall be acceptable or profitable until he puts in love (v. 1-3). The beautiful thing about the nature oflove is that it is the nature of God, for God is love (1 John 4:8). And if God dwells in us, love should also be demonstrated in us. The scripture says, love suffers long, that is why God loves to forgive his own people. Several times we have turned away from him, yet He does not turn away from us. He still looks for us. So also we should do for all we love. Love is kind, and that is why God has been kind to us. He doesn’t condemn us; He wants us to repent (E...

MEETING NEEDS              

Galatians 6:1-10
Devotional Verse: -“Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith” (V. 10)


   The essence of service is to meet needs. Ministry is meeting a particular need. The reason most nations or industry are not effective is because people are employed to serve without meeting a particular need. Meeting needs has to do with helping others out of their troubles. Any business that is not meeting needs and helping others out of problem may actually be an act of wickedness (Matthew 25:26).
 
   The word of God says, as much as we have the opportunity, let us do good, help out or be a blessing to everyone, especially the members of the house hold of faith. Therefore, wherever you work or serve, always look out for ways to help others with what you are doing. Every time you see someone in need, God is simply giving you the opportunity to serve. You also need to note that the Bible says the need of the church and the member of the church should be a priority. This is because God take note of this for a bountiful reward (Matthew 6:33)
 
   Someone said, “do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the way you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as you can”. Always take the little task you are given to do as though they are great one. Sit down to analyze it to make it good and great. Remember, God is watching all you are doing for a time of reward. Peace!

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). 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

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.
