  EVALUATION 2 Corinthians 13:1-10 Devotional:- “Examine and test and evaluate your own selves to see whether you are holding to your faith and showing the proper fruits of it. Test and prove yourselves [not Christ]. Do you not yourselves realize and know [thoroughly by an ever-increasing experience] that Jesus Christ is in you-unless you are [counterfeits] disapproved on trial and rejected?” (V.5)AMPC At such a time like this every one who desires to fulfill their destiny in life should evaluate themselves. Since life is about fulfilling your purpose, goal or destiny, it therefore becomes possible to measure where you are in the race of your life. The enemy often tries to make this time a period of sorrow for so many people. They will look back and see their poor performances. This will then make them break down to sorrow. But this is a negative approach to evaluation. Evaluation is to help you look critically into your state of achievement in the year. It helps you discover where...

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

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.

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.
