  APPRECIATE HIM Psalms 136:1-9  Devotional:- “Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.” (V.1) NKJV Most people have not started to enjoy God to the maximum. because they have not fully imbibed the wisdom of appreciation. No relationship will be able to survive for a long time if the spirit of appreciation is not imbibed. Can you imagine that you plan to buy something for someone you love, though you do not have the means but embarked on saving towards it. At last you successfully get the gift, rapped it beautifully with a rapper and present it to your friend. All that your friend did was to receive it and just say, “That is good,” in a frowning way. And he started talking about something else to make you forget about the gift. You will feel disappointed and almost regret your effort. This and others are what most men do to God. We do not know that it is costing God so much to keep us alive. Can you imagine the challenges mummy went through b...

UNTO THE LORD

UNTO THE LORD         

Colossians 3:18-25
Devotional Verse: -“And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men” (V. 23)


   Service is of the Lord and can only be rewarded by the Lord. The term service in our world connotes weakness and defeat. But service in God’s term is the route to greatness. That is why service cannot be done in a worldly way. We need to do it in the kingdom pattern and have this mindset. 
 
   The Bible says, our service should be unto the Lord and not unto men. This means, we should not serve to please men but to please God who wired us and sent us. If anyone always wants to please people with his service, it will not be appreciated and people could totally discourage you. Sometimes, there is no one to encourage your services. But when your focus of service is unto the Lord, you will no more over expect from men and you will no longer be discouraged.
 
   Friend, looking at men to serve the Lord will always be frustrating. When it comes to service, God is your rewarder. Don't mind the mockery of men. Don't mind the statement of people. Focus your service on the Lord. Only make sure you are making profit. Soon, your promotion will come. (Psalms 45:6-7). Don't join the ungodly attitude in service. Your promotion will soon come. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me a humble heart to serve in your house

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.
