  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...

GOOD SUCCESS

GOOD SUCCESS               

Joshua 1:1-9
Devotional:- “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success” (V. 8) NKJV


   All children of God must understand the difference between good success and success that is not good. Success that is not good is attained with earthly or sensual wisdom (common sense). The truth you must learn is that what you used to lay a foundation of a building will be needed to sustain such (Psalms 11:3). If God is not part of a success, He may not sustain it.
 
   Please know that good success is the one that will continue to succeed progressively (Proverbs 4:18). The word of God told us what can sustain all things; it is the energy of the Spirit (Hebrews 1:3,). Whatever is initiated by the energy of the Spirit of God will be sustained by the same. That energy has made the sun, the moon and the stars, and has sustained them till date (Hebrews 11:3). Success is not a success if it can expire. Good success has a successive future. 
 
   We have learnt how to receive the energy of the Spirit; it is by receiving the Spirit of the word through meditation and imagination. That is why good success can be gotten as we continually acknowledge God for direction and instruction in all that we do (Proverbs 3:5-6). That way, we will work our ways into good success. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to always be moved by your direction 
 
“IF GOD DIRECTS IT, HE WILL SUSTAIN IT”

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.
