COMPARISM

  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...

IT CLEANSES

 IT CLEANSES           

John 15:1-5
Devotional: -“You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you” (V. 3) NKJV



    No matter how terrible someone’s mind might have been polluted and corrupted, the power in the word of God is able to give mental cleansing. Mental cleansing is an act of deprogramming and reprogramming. It is an act of complete removal of a siting spirit and establishing a clean spirit (Psalms 50:12). Jesus told the disciples of the cleansing effect of the word of God. He told the disciples that they were already cleansed by the word of God. 
 
    This is because the spirit in the word of God is superior to the spirit that put people in bondage (1 John 4:4). It is the spirit that sets free from the bondages of the devil (2 Corinthians 3:17). Those who keep washing by the word of God will at last become as clean as Jesus (2 Corinthians 3:18).
 
    That is why every Christian parent should daily share the word of God with their family. That is why every institution of learning, organization and industry should adopt the word of God daily to have a clean and united workforce. The cleansing power in the word of God is capable of removing a delible stain of the forces of wickedness upon the mind of people. This is the effect of the evil spirit that has turned many people to vessels of wickedness. The power in the word of God can penetrate into the bones and marrow to do a cleansing work (Hebrews 4:12). It can turn a bad person to a good one. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, let your word do a cleansing work over my life and family.
 
“THE WORD OF GOD IS A MENTAL STAIN REMOVAL”

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.
