SUCCESS YOUR PURPOSE 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Devotional:- “And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (V. 8) NLT When a person turns to the Lord, invite Jesus to his/her life, and surrender to Jesus as Lord and saviour, then he/she sincerely becomes a Christian. This is the state many in the church has not attained. Many struggle to surrender their lives to the Lord because they are afraid of failure, not able to trust God to give them success, and their love for the things of this world (1 John 2:15-17). When you sincerely surrender your life to Jesus Christ, your view of success cannot but change. Apostle Paul said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful” (2 Timothy 4:7). When you start to live for God, your definition of success will change from materials to purpose. Liv...

CREATIVITY

CREATIVITY              

Exodus 35:29-35
Devotional: -“He has filled them with skill to do all manner of work of the engraver and the designer and the tapestry maker, in blue, purple, and scarlet thread, and fine linen, and of the weaver-those who do every work and those who design artistic works” (V 35) NKJV.


   It is important for you to know that creativity is not just in the realm of the mind. Ability to manifest creativity is product of inspiration and it is the spirit that inspires (2 Tim. 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21, Job 32:8) When someone is inspired by a spirit; either Holy Spirit or unholy spirit, such will be very creative positively or negatively.
 
   God mentioned the name of Bezalel and others who have been filled with the Spirit of God to become creative enough to design the interior of the temple of God (Ex. 35:35). That is the same with Solomon (1 kings 4:29). It is the same with men and women used by the Lord to write the Holy Bible (2 Peter 1:21). So also God gave wisdom to many great men and women He is using today. 
 
   That is why we need to start to cherish the Holy Spirit in our lives as believers. It is the release of the energy of the Holy Spirit that can make you creative. This is because creativity thrives on the strength of Joy. (Isaiah 12:3) But that is not just ordinary joy but the joy of the Holy Spirit. Wherever the Holy Spirit is allowed, one of the fruits you will notice there is joy (Galatians 5:22). As a professional; a singer, a teacher, a preacher, an artisan, start to have quality fellowship with the Holy Spirit and you will be super creative. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me as I relate with the Holy Spirit to be connected to the strength of creativity.
 
“CREATIVITY IS REPRODUCING THE HEAVENLY IDEA ON EARTH”

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.
