  GRATITUDE Malachi 2:1-5 Devotional:- “if you do not listen, and if you do not set your heart to honor my name,” says the Lord Almighty, “I will send curse upon you, and l will curse your blessings. Yes I have already cursed them, because you have not set your heart to honor me.” (V. 2) NIV In such a period like this one of the things God expects from you and me ls that we should be grateful unto Him. It is a great thing that the Lord has kept us to See the end of another year. You need to know that countless number of people have been swallowed by death in the year. Even if many things are yet to be where you expected them to be, death will never be a better option for you and your family. God has kept you because He still has a good plan for you. He still sees a great future ahead of you. So be grateful. In the scripture we read today God expected the priest of which you are one (I Peter 2:9) to be grateful unto Him but they did not, so He cursed their blessings. May your blessi...

KEEP OBEYING IT

KEEP OBEYING IT                

Leviticus 26:3-12
Devotional: -“'If you walk in My statutes and keep My commandments, and perform them” (V. 3) NKJV


   Every time God wants to promise His people to perform His covenant in their life, He will always start with the word ‘if’. ‘If’ is a word of condition. That is, these promises are for those who will obey these covenant instructions. This is because; God is a covenant keeping God. In covenant, each party has their role to play. It is as you are faithfully playing your role that God can play His own role.
 
  God promised in His word that if His people will obey His instruction, He will give rain in its season and fruits in its season. That tells you the power of obedience to the word of God. God always promise the best to those who obey Him (Isaiah 1:19). This means obedience makes us activates the power in the word of God. As powerful as the word of God is, disobedience could hinder it from working in the life of anyone (Deuteronomy 28:15).
 
  Friend, let us ask for the grace to always obey the Lord. We cannot need this grace enough. Human being are always tempted to disobey their maker. But keep it in mind from now that you must always obey the Lord. When you have made up your mind, the grace will always be sufficient for you (Psalm 119:11). And the Lord will always work wonders in your life. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always obey your word.
 
“OBEDIENCE TO THE COVENANT EMPLOYS THE COVENANT POWER”

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 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.
