  GRATITUDE Malachi 2:1-5 Devotional:- “if you do not listen, and if you do not set your heart to honor my name,” says the Lord Almighty, “I will send curse upon you, and l will curse your blessings. Yes I have already cursed them, because you have not set your heart to honor me.” (V. 2) NIV In such a period like this one of the things God expects from you and me ls that we should be grateful unto Him. It is a great thing that the Lord has kept us to See the end of another year. You need to know that countless number of people have been swallowed by death in the year. Even if many things are yet to be where you expected them to be, death will never be a better option for you and your family. God has kept you because He still has a good plan for you. He still sees a great future ahead of you. So be grateful. In the scripture we read today God expected the priest of which you are one (I Peter 2:9) to be grateful unto Him but they did not, so He cursed their blessings. May your blessi...

PERSONALITY     

Matthew 16:13-20
Devotional Verse:- “Simon Peter answered and said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."” (V. 16)



   When you observe people, you will discover that people look unique in the way they behave. This is because God made all the people on earth to be uniquely different. A research said, only 10 out of 2.4 billion can look closely like you. This simply means you are uniquely made. Your personality is just so uniquely different. Understanding this will make you identify the areas you can best serve.

   We saw among the disciples of Jesus the personality trait of Peter. He will always be the first to talk. This must be that he has a strong talking personality. We can see this displayed in various places in the scripture (Luke 9:33; Matthew 16:21-23; John 21:2-3). Everyone is made with different personalities and this point to where we can best serve. There are four major personality traits you need to know. The first of them is sanguine, like Peter. They enjoy talking and creating humor. The second is choleric. They are called natural leader. They love to dictate what others in the group will do and impose their ideas sometimes. The third is phlegmatic. They love to keep to themselves and think deep over matters. The forth is melancholy. They love to work and not easily fed up working.

   Each person may have two or more of such traits manifesting in them; One from the father and the other from the mother. So, discover your major and minor personality. This will help you to know where you can best serve. This will also help you in knowing the reason people behave the way they do. Give yourself to learning more about people's personality and you will be able to understand with people, in relationship or in team work. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, reveal my personality to me 

“THE SECRET OF ALL YOU DO IS IN YOUR PERSONALITY”

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.
