  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

FELLOWSHIPPING WITH GOD

FELLOWSHIPPING WITH GOD       

Exodus 34:23-33
Devotional:- “So he was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights; he neither ate bread nor drank water. And He wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant, the Ten Commandments” (V. 28) NKJV



   Every child of God who want to regularly enjoy the energy of the spirit must create time to be alone with God (Luke 5:16). This is actually the time the energy of the spirit is transmitted to us. This is because God speaks to us in such times (Ezekiel 2:2). Every time you spend personal time with God, you will always come back with a new level of strength. 
 
   Moses did not know that as God talked with him, something on God was already rubbing on him. Just like sun emits great light and we can feel the heat though very far to the earth, so also is God. Whenever you hang out with Him, you contact the energy of the Spirit. That is the secret of Moses speaking and all the children of Israel trembles. It is because He has been with the terrible God (Deuteronomy 7:21).
 
   Friend, we have come to the time that you need more than your physical or mental energy to move on. We need the energy of the Spirit. That is why you need to always have a time with God. When His word comes to you, His energy to launch out will be deposited in you (Ezekiel 2:2). And you will succeed. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always fellowship with you
 
“YOU ARE AS STRONG AS THE ONE YOU SPEND YOUR TIME WITH”

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.
