A SINGING HEART

  A SINGING HEART Ephesians 5:10-20 Devotional:- “speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,” (v.19) NKJV Singing always, to some people, is equal to madness. Some believe that if you see a man who has never had a time of sorrow, then he is not a man. According to them, life must have ups and downs. But do you know that God want to simply make your days full of joy and void of sorrow. That is why Christ came to carry our sorrows away. If He has come to carry our sorrow away, then it is wrong to expect yourself to still be living in what is no more available (Isaiah 53:4). What the bible is teaching us today is contrary to what men will teach. God’s word wants us to always sing and be joyful. That is why God’s word says; rejoice in the Lord always and not sometimes (Philippians 4:4). Listen to this, if you want to be joyful and void of sorrow for the rest of your life, you need to pray it into your life. Sing...

PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT

PRAYING IN THE SPIRIT    
 
Scripture Reading: Jude 1:14-25
Devotional:- “But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit” (V. 20) NKJV



   For us as children of God, our God is the source of our strength. We do not depend on men, alcohol or drugs to make us strong (Ephesians 5:18). God always strengthened us by His Spirit through His word (Isaiah 40:28-31). Whenever we are faced with any challenge, we are to turn to God to strengthen us to overcome. Strength is the ability to carry out a given task.

   For us to carry out our task on earth, God will always strengthen us by the energy of the Spirit. This energy of the Spirit is transmitted to us by the word of God (Ezekiel 2:2; Psalms 119:97-100). A major way the word of God comes to us is when we are praying in the spirit. We actually speak in the Holy Spirit by the things that the Spirit reveals to us, that cannot be expressed with human vocabulary (Romans 8:26-27). The more you do this the stronger your mind will be.

   Friend, whenever you feel inadequate to confront any form of challenge, be it examinations, interviews, your office work, your family or business challenges, just look for a place to pray in the Holy Ghost for some time. You will receive the energy of the Spirit and manifest beyond your ability. Your weakness or limitations will be replaced with divine ability and you will always succeed. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always pray in the spirit.

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.
