  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

WISDOM

WISDOM                  

Psalms 119:97-104
Devotional:-“You, through Your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies; For they are ever with me” (V. 98) NKJV



   Wisdom is said to be the most important thing in the life of any man (Proverbs 4:7). When wisdom is lacking, a man's life will amount to little. This is because without wisdom, every other virtue will be a waste. Wisdom is the catalyst to make your gift, talents and any other privileges to gain value. Wisdom is the ability to take wise decision. Wise actions are activities that produce good and pleasant result of life.
 
   The Bible tells us of how David was contacting wisdom for his victory and success. It is by meditation in the word of God. This is because the Holy Spirit which is the Spirit of the word of God is the Spirit of wisdom (Acts 6:10). The wisdom of the Spirit of God supersedes the wisdom of this world (1 Corinthians 2:6-7). It is the wisdom of righteousness which the wickedness of this world cannot stop. This is the reason that all attempts to stop the gospel have not worked and will never work.
 
   Friend, for you to encounter and begin to experience divine wisdom, you must create personal time to study and meditate in the word of God daily (Psalms 1:1-3). The Spirit of the word of God transmits wisdom of the ages to humanity. So, you will be able to act better than aged people. The word of God is the bank of wisdom. Live it and it will exalt you and bring you honour (Proverbs 3:13-18). Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me access to your wisdom by your word.
 
“DIVINE WISDOM WILL ALWAYS SUPERSEDE HUMAN WISDOM”

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.
