  JOYFUL COMPANION  Luke 1:37-45 Devotional:- “For indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy” (v.44) NKJV We must know that sooner or later, we will always look like the people we are moving with. God’s word says, he that walks with the wise shall be wise and the companion of fools shall be destroyed (Proverbs 13:20). This means that what we gain from the surroundings of our associates has a very strong influence upon our life. If a man walks with people who don’t know or appreciate joy, he may not also experience joy. We read about the visitation of Mary to Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist. Since two of them carry unique children of divine significance, they both have the Spirit of God in them. This brings about a joyful effect. As soon as Elizabeth heard the voice of Mary, the baby leaped for joy. You therefore need to understand that the richest place you need to seek to be is where God’s children are gathe...

WAIT ON THE WORD

WAIT ON THE WORD                

Psalms 27:11-14
Devotional: -Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!” (V. 14) NKJV
 
   Everyone who wants to experience the power in the word of God must learn to wait on God for His word. This is because when the word of God comes to you, the power of God has come to you. He that has the word has the power of God. This is because His word is His power (Ecclesiastic 8:4).
 
   The word of God says, when we wait on the Lord, we will become strengthened in our heart. To wait on the Lord is to wait on His word. This is by acknowledging Him in all your ways (Proverbs 3:5-6). This to always ask Him for His word in any given situation. “Lord what do I do?” When He gives you His words, then you have His power. This is because His word will surely be carried out. Jesus, as the Lord of hosts is committed to this (2 Kings 19:31).
 
   Friend, you must learn to put your confidence in God’s word, knowing fully well that it will not fail. Every time you ask for the word of the Lord, the Holy Spirit wants to give you the father’s word. All you need to do is to be attentive to Him. Always wait on His word whenever you are in any situation. Then, you will have a word that will be executed as you speak it by faith. Stop speaking or acting only as you think, but as He thinks, according to His word. You will see His power. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to always wait on your word for my actions.
 
“TO RECEIVE HIS WORD, ASK HIM”

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.
