  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

A SWORD

A SWORD               

 
Ephesians 6:13-20
Devotional: -“And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (V. 17) NKJV


   
   Everyone who engages in battle knows the importance of the weapon called sword. This is what stand in place of AK47 today. Sword is both defensive, but mostly offensive weapon. By it, you will protect yourself and destroy the enemy. The enemy seeing it with you, is enough to scare them because it's a deadly weapon in the hand of warrior.
 
   The Bible calls the word of God the sword of the spirit and that is what it is. When the word of God is loaded in your heart through meditation, then it proceed out of your mouth (Matthew 12:34). Remember the word is what commands the forces of God to action (Job 22:28; Psalms 103:20). So, when a child of God is speaking or praying with the word, it becomes power through his mouth. People of darkness call this incantation.
 
  Friend, your mouth will lack authority without the word of God. This sword of the spirit works either in your dream or in real life. The devil dare not wait for it. That is why you must let it dwell in your heart richly (Colossians 3:16). Wherever you are confronted with any challenge in life, the word will be strong enough to give you victory. God bless you. Peace!
 
PRAYER:  Lord, let your words ever be in my mouth
 
“THE STRONGER YOUR SWORD, THE BIGGER YOUR VICTORY”

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.
