  MADE TO SERVE GOD 1 Corinthians 3:5-17 Devotional:- “For we are both God's workers. And you are God's field. You are God's building. (V.9 NLT) God put you on earth to make contributions and make a difference with your life. Another purpose of your life is to serve the Lord wherever you are. You are created to add to the earth and not just to take from it. This purpose of your life is called ministry or service. It is very important that you live in this consciousness, you were created to serve God (Ephesians 2:10). Wherever you are either in the school or in the office, be sure you are serving God and fulfilling your purpose.  God saved you to serve Him. Your work, business or academic is also a work and a service to the Lord (Ephesians 6:5-7). God redeemed you to do His holy work everywhere in your life. It is service that gives value to your life (2 Timothy 1:9). Ministry is not only for pastors but for all members of the body of Christ. We are not to sit and wait for h...

THE BEST       

Daniel 1:8-20
Devotional:- “And in all matters of wisdom and understanding about which the king examined them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and astrologers who were in all his realm” (V. 20)



   When someone has decided to serve the Lord, not flesh or sin, God will bestow on him the excelling grace. This is because, God made us to be the best in the areas of our calling. We are already custom made for greatness. All that God is seeking from us, is to be willing to serve Him.

   Daniel and his friends determined in their heart that they will not serve the devil or give themselves to the pleasure of this world. They made up their mind to live only for God. Since it is God who packaged them, He started to release the best through their lives as they serve Him where they were. When they were asked to bow to an image, they refused (Daniel 2:24-25). When the king wanted to kill all the wise men because of the king's dream, God revealed the secret to them (Daniel 2:16-19). When they were to be given strong drink, they rejected. Then God gave them wisdom and they were ten times better (Daniel 1:17-20).

   Friend, you will only be your best and live the best kind of life when you live to serve God (Daniel 6:20-22). Decide to allow God to use you as a vessel of His honour. Most people live a dishonoured life today but God will turn your life to be honourable (Hebrews 5:4). And you will be the best. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, let your grace for the best be upon my life.

“YOUR BEST CAN ONLY COME THROUGH YOUR SERVICE TO GOD”

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.
