PROTECT YOUR HEART  Proverbs 4:20-27 Devotional:- “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life” (V. 23) NLT      Everyone is born with a strength capable of rising to greatness. In every growing child is a seed of greatness. It is this strength that makes the youth so creative and energetic. That is why each young person looks at the future with great hope. The enemy tries to destroy this strength. As strong as many started in life, not many could strike the chord of success because their strength was destroyed.

SERVING HIS PURPOSE

SERVING HIS PURPOSE       

Mark 1:32-39
Devotional Verse:-“But He said to them, "Let us go into the next towns that I may preach there also, because for this purpose I have come forth."(V. 38)



    It is important we understand the motive and the focus for which God expect our services to be. God has a purpose He wants to fulfill on earth through our services. So many think they are serving God today, but outside the will of God. They keep committedly serving God in a wrong way. That is why we need to understand the purpose or the motive through which God is expecting us to serve Him. It is only in this purpose we can establish the will of God on earth.

   Jesus said, for this purpose I have come. These purposes are the reasons we are here. Firstly, we should serve the Lord in a way that brings glory to God (1 Corinthians 10:3). Secondly, that we should serve God making all that we do to make the family of God stronger. Thirdly; we should serve God with the character and attitude of Christ (Philippians 2:5). Fourthly; we should serve the Lord to be a blessing to others (Genesis 12:2). We should serve the Lord to make others know that they need to come to God (Matthew 28:18-20).

   You can't be serving God with these motive and not please God. Serving God, but not in those purposes or motives will not be acceptable to Him. We will be able to do all we are doing in these purposes if we first totally surrender to Him as our Lord (Romans 12:1). Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always serve according to your purpose

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.

ONLY THE VICTORS Revelation 21:1-8 Devotional:- “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (v. 7) NKJV      In this part of the world, many are not so used to taking responsibility over challenges. Instead of been proactive to foresee and prevent issues, people are used to looking out for whom to blame and who should help out (Proverbs 14:23). It is vivid that we are in a challenging season. It is also clear that we are drawing closer to the end of the age.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
