  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...

GOD THROUGH MAN

GOD THROUGH MAN         

Philippians 2:12-18
Devotional:-“For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure” (V. 13) NKJV


   It is important you come to know that it is God who works through you whenever you are able to do anything spectacular. God always use man to carry out His agenda on earth, just as the devil does too. That is the reason why you should acknowledge and recognize God in all you do (Proverbs 3:5-6). Whoever is manifesting anything spectacular, it is either by the Spirit of God or by the other spirit. 
 
   How does He work through us? It is by putting in us His energy and ability to perform. The scripture says “He walks in us”. He works in us by releasing His energy into us and it comes into our intellect and it is passed into our will and our emotion becomes empowered to carry it out (Job 32:8).
 
   Friend, it's time you learn to connect to the Spirit of the Lord this way in all your assignments. This simply informs us that you cannot separate the spirit from your activities (John 15:5). There is no such thing as natural man without the influence of a spirit (Job 32:8). So, we need to consciously determine the spirit that is ruling us for our prosperity. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to always recognize the working of the Holy Spirit in me.
 
“A SPIRIT MUST WORK THROUGH EVERY MAN, YOU ONLY HAVE CHOICES

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.
