A HEART OF BLESSING

A HEART OF BLESSING Matthew 20:20-28 Devotional:- “just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many” (V. 28) NKJV      As believers, the greatest opportunity you can ever have is to be a blessing. When a life is not a blessing, it cannot be fulfilled. The truth is that you are not in this world for yourself. We came here for God and others. If not for others, you would not be needed. So you are only important when others can be affected by your life.

SANCTIFIED             

John 17:9-19
Devotional: -“Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth” (V. 17) NKJV


    Knowledge sets free. Knowledge equips and builds strong; build courage and confidence. Much more, the knowledge of the truth do sanctify. The word ‘sanctification’ means separation unto the Lord. It means, brought to the side of God. It means, made to be only a vessel of the Lord. The power in the word of God translates people from darkness to light (1 Peter 2:9).
 
   Jesus was praying for the church and He asked the father to sanctify us by the truth. This is because when someone hears the truth and gave himself to it, he will discover the right and the wrong information. When such person allows the Spirit of the word, then, his/her soul shall be converted to the Lord (Psalms. 19:7; Psalms 51:13). The more you give yourself to the study of the word God, the more you experience the convention to the side of the Lord. Christians who are found doing ungodly things are those who refuse to give their heart to the truth of the word of God (Romans 1:18-25).
 
   The truth is that, it is the truth of the word of God that sanctifies us and purify us unto God. That is why a Christian that is not given to studying the word of God, either personally or with the church will not be for the Lord. At the point of temptation he will discover he lacks the stamina to stand. You only belong to God as you give yourself to the words of God. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to give myself to the study of your word.
 
“YOU WILL ALWAYS BE POSSESSED BY THE SPIRIT OF WHAT YOU KEEP HEARING”

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.
