  COMPARISM 2 Corinthians 10:7-18 Devotional:- “Oh, don't worry; we wouldn't dare say that we are as wonderful as these other men who tell you how important they are! But they are only comparing themselves with each other, using themselves as the standard of measurement. How ignorant!” (v.12) NLT. Man, by his complexity, sometimes creates complications for himself in life. One of the things we often do incorrectly is to measure our lives by comparing them to other people’s lives. We often forget that we are sent for a different purpose, so our goals and objectives cannot be the same. There is nothing wrong with trying to gauge your level of performance against others in the same field. But it will be completely wrong for you to determine whether you are a failure or a success by the life of another man. Paul, the apostle of Christ, knows that his own purpose and program are from the Lord and are different from what others have been given. For example, if some apostles were marr...

BUILDS FAITH

BUILDS FAITH                

Romans 10:14-18
Devotional:-“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” (V. 17) NKJV


   It is by faith spiritual blessings can be made physical. It is by faith that human can turn their spiritual blessings to physical. Man is made to be part of creation but this can only happen by faith (Hebrews 11:40). God’s answer to prayers can only be downloaded by faith (Mark 11:24). This makes faith one of the vital virtue that all of us must grow to use daily.
 
   The Bible says faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God. You will notice that the word hearing is mentioned twice. In producing faith, you must hear the word twice (Psalms 16:11). The first hearing is with any of the five senses. The second hearing is with the mind, through meditation (Joshua 1:8). To grow in faith, you must take the word of God to meditation, which is engaging the mind. This allows the mind to think, decide and act. It is the action that is called faith. Every word you meditate on will always move you to action (Joshua 1:8).
 
   Therefore, to be able to gain faith for your healing, provision, progress or open door, you must learn to meditate on the word of God. That is why faith does not fail because it is you and God. Begin to love the word of God and it will produce the faith in you for your achievements. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, put the love of your word in my heart.
 
“NO WORD NO FAITH, NO FAITH NO WORLD”

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.

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.
