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...

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.
 
“FAITH MAKES MAN OPERATES AT THE REALM OF GOD”

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.
