  BECOMING LIKE CHRIST Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the first born among many brethren” (V. 29) The third purpose of your life is to become like Christ. From the very beginning God intend to make man to be like Himself (Gen 1:26). So like God, we are made a spirit and our spirit lives the body. We are intellectual, we can think and solve problems. We are relational, i.e. we can give and receive love. We also have a moral conscience to discern right from wrong which make us accountable to God. God’s ultimate goal for you on earth is not comfort but character. He wants you to grow up and become like Christ. This does not mean losing your personality. Christlikeness is all about transforming your character and not your personality. Every time you forget that character development is the reason you are here you frustrate yourself. So, life is quite challenging because God is always attem...

BEARING FRUITS

BEARING FRUITS         

Galatians 5:16-26
Devotional:- “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,” (V. 22)NKJV


   There are different types of fruits that people bears. There are biological fruits and there are spiritual fruits. To be able to bear fruits, you will always need an empowerment. God has created in everyone the ability to be fruitful. Yet, it does not always come without its own challenges (Genesis 3:16-19).
 
   As a child of God, your life should bear the fruits of the Spirit because Christ is in you. That is why you should not struggle to love, joyful or be at peace with others. You only need to repeatedly meditate in this scripture of spiritual fruitfulness and the energy of the spirit will help you to choose these fruits in your relationship with people.
 
   If you have a bad habit that is tarnishing your image or that of your family, let this word of God be taught to your family. And the ability to bear the fruits of godliness shall be given to you. Remember, if you don't uproot the weeds, the wheat will not flourish. So, pray and decree the uprooting of the negative seeds (Matthew 15:13). Then, keep prayerfully sharing the words of God. The word is powerful enough for both conversion and production of fruits of righteousness (Hebrews 4:12; Psalms 19:7). Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, release the strength of your word into my life to bear the fruits of righteousness.
 
“THE SEED SOWED WILL DETERMINE THE FRUITS”

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.
