  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

MEDITATION

MEDITATION          

Psalms 1:1-6
Devotional: -“But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night” (V. 2) NKJV



   One of the major ways to drink the juice of the power of God through the word of God is by meditation. Whenever anyone is meditating, that person is searching into and drinking the power of God. Meditation is the act of thinking deep or focusing one’s mind for a period of time for the purpose of getting to the rich part of an information. Meditation is the act of drawing to your soul the spirit of an information, so that information begins to internally form or in internally shape you.


   The Bible gives us an example of two people. One of them was giving attention to meditating in the word of God and the other does not. We can see their different result at the end. One prospered and the other is called wicked. This result is just by what they fellowship with and what they meditate on. That is why it is so important that each of us give attention to the exercise of meditation in the word of God.

   Friend, it is when you give yourself to meditating in the word of God that you will drink into the Spirit, Life and the Power in the word. The Spirit in the word is what can make anything dead to come alive (John 5:25; John 6:63; John 11:43-44). Only those who have received the Spirit of the word can release it to create life. So, give yourself to meditation in the word and the power in the word will change your life totally. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, give me a passionate heart for your word.

“ONLY THOSE WHO CAN MEDITATE, CAN DRINK OF THE POWER”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

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.
