  COMPARISM 2 Corinthians 10:7-18 Devotional:- “Oh, don't worry; we wouldn't dare say that we are as wonderful as these other men who tell you how important they are! But they are only comparing themselves with each other, using themselves as the standard of measurement. How ignorant!” (v.12) NLT. Man, by his complexity, sometimes creates complications for himself in life. One of the things we often do incorrectly is to measure our lives by comparing them to other people’s lives. We often forget that we are sent for a different purpose, so our goals and objectives cannot be the same. There is nothing wrong with trying to gauge your level of performance against others in the same field. But it will be completely wrong for you to determine whether you are a failure or a success by the life of another man. Paul, the apostle of Christ, knows that his own purpose and program are from the Lord and are different from what others have been given. For example, if some apostles were marr...

WORD WITH POWER

WORD WITH POWER          

Luke 1:26-38
Devotional: -“For with God nothing is ever impossible and no word from God shall be without power or impossible of fulfillment” (V. 37) (Amplified)



   Understanding the power of God puts every man in command of the forces of this world. Power is said to be an ability to carry out a task. This means, that the word of God has the ability to be fulfilled. The word of God is Powerful (Ecclesiastic 8:4). This means, it is backed up with forces that enforces it or carries it out.

   The word of God says, there shall be no word from God that will lack Power. In other words, every word of God is backed up by the forces of God. The forces of God are called the host of God (2 Chronicles 18:18). These forces of God are the angels of God who are always on alert to carry out the words of God (Psalms 103:20). The Bible says they excel in strength. In other words, they are created with excelling strength. The purpose of their creation is to carry out the word of God.

   This is the reason you must learn to employ the word of God to overcome all the challenges confronting your life. The enemy wants you to keep thinking defeated, but you just keep thinking and speaking the word of God. Remember the forces of God will enforce what you believe and speak. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always believe and speak your word alone.

“WHEN THE WORD IS IN YOUR MOUTH, POWER IS IN YOUR MOUTH”

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.
