  SPIRIT OF JOY Galatians 5:16-26 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness” (v.22) NKJV For all men to experience an ever-flowing joy, we must first possess the spirit of joy. God is the source of joy. When He is in a man, He brings His joy along (Psalm 16:11). Since God is a Spirit, He can only be with men by dwelling in them. When the spirit of God dwells in a man, he will experience unlimited joy. One of the most neglected exercises in the church is people receiving the Holy Spirit. Most Christians look for one excuse or the other to neglect the Holy Spirit in their life. Sometimes people feel the Holy Spirit is not that necessary. Some people feel it is an old way of following the Lord. But you need to know that if you lack the Spirit of God, God’s word says that you are none of His own (Romans 8:9). Friend, it will be wisdom for you to set aside time to ask and be filled with the Spirit of Christ. When you are filled wit...

FAITH

FAITH       

Romans 1:8-17
Devotional: -“For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "The just shall live by faith."" (V. 17) NKJV


   
One of the strongest energy of the Spirit is faith. A man operating by the Spirit of faith is a man of possibility. The word of God says, if we can believe, all things are possible. (Mark 9:23). Faith is the strength of the Spirit produced by the word of God. It is the strength of the Spirit that can move you to carry out the plan of God on the earth.
 
   The word of God says “the just shall live by faith” Which means without faith, Christianity will be a mockery. Through faith, people are justified before God (Romans 5:1). The word of God says people are saved by grace but it is through faith (Ephesians 2:8). At salvation the level of faith in people gives them access to salvation because of the grace of God. People can only enjoy the blessings of Abraham through faith (Galatians 3:13-14). It is the Holy Spirit that move people to be able to believe God and without faith they will not be able to achieve the plan of God for their lives (Philippians 2:13).
 
   Whenever people merely receive the word of God and it does not produce faith in them, it will not profit them (Hebrews 4:2). We receive faith when the spirit in the word is released into our spirit (John 6:63, Romans 10:17). That makes you to be restless till the plan of God is executed in your life. By faith Moses confronted Pharaoh, like facing the president of a nation to command him to let Israel go. By faith, they pass through the Red Sea because God said they should. Friend, when faith is at work in you, all things become possible. Peace.
    
PRAYER: Lord, let your faith be released for my freedom.

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.
