DARLING OF GOD

DARLING OF GOD I John 4:11-21 Devotional:- “If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?” (V. 20) NKJV God has some darlings He loves in the world, and they also love Him. They seek Him, and He seeks them. They long for Him, and He longs for them. You will know such people by the way they relate to others. Today, most people think the measure for their love for God is by the number of chapters of the Bible they read daily, the number of hours and times they pray daily, the numerous assignments they do in the church or the number of posts they occupy in the church. All of these are good things to do for the Lord, but it is not a true measurement of our love for God. Most of these are what make us grow in Christ, but the fundamental measurement of our love for God is how much we love others (1 Corinthians 13:1-2). All other spiritual activities must be bo...

PREACHING THE GOSPEL

PREACHING THE GOSPEL              

Acts 1:1-8
Devotional: “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth” (V. 8) NKJV


   It is important that every Christian should know that preaching of the gospel cannot be done by human wisdom (1Corinthians 2:5). You may want to have one on one kind of evangelism or a crusade. It could be that you want to preach the word to a group of people or the church. You will need the energy of the spirit to get result to the glory of God.
 
   Jesus said to the disciples that they should wait for the Holy Spirit before they will start preaching. This is because human wisdom or been eloquent cannot touch the soul of men. How many good words have you heard or you read, that you obey? Only the words of the spirit have the power to move you to unstoppable actions (Joshua 1:8).
 
   Any time you want to preach the word of God, please don't depend on what is in your head. Ask God to give you a word (Luke 12:12). Meditate on that word until God by His Spirit in you start to reveal to you the mystery in His word. Then the energy will be transmitted to you for impactful ministration. Only a word received from God that can make impactful preaching (Psalm 68:11). You will not fail in Jesus name. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the wisdom of waiting on your words daily.
 
“WORK OF THE SPIRIT WITHOUT THE ENERGY OF THE SPIRIT WILL BE EMPTY”

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.
