  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...

 UNDERSTANDING                 

1 kings 3:5-14
Devotional:- “Therefore give to Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?" (V. 9) NKJV


   Whenever the Holy Spirit gives understanding over any issue, it comes with the energy of the spirit for performance (Acts 4:20). The major reason why some people may be stagnant is lack of understanding of the way of life (Ecclesiastes 10:15). From the day the understanding of your way come to you, it is then that you will start to rise to shine (Isaiah 60:1)
 
   Understanding is an act of God showing His light over your heart to desolve all confusion and let you see rightly. The truth is that the clearer you can see the faster you will move in life. Solomon asked for an understanding heart. That was all he needed to achieve all that he attained on earth. That energy drove him through the journey of destiny. He was unstoppable till he became the best. This was also the experience of Joseph (Genesis 41:38-41). People of understanding are sought after everywhere. Without understanding people will be self-destructive without knowing (Proverbs 21:16)
 
   Friend, God is the giver of an understanding heart. Just like He gave Solomon, Joseph, Daniel etc., He can give you too. That crawling vision can run fast. All you need is an understanding heart. We can contact understanding as we meditate in the word of God daily (Psalms 119:97-100). In your quest to know God more, the Holy Spirit will start to help you through the Spirit of understanding. This will make the spirit of understanding to start to dwell in you (Daniel 9:22). The little I enjoy came like that and it drives me to all I am doing today. Your child can be brilliant. Your business can blossom. All that you need is understanding. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the Spirit of understanding for my way.
 
“UNDERSTANDING WILL ALWAYS MAKE OUTSTANDING”

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 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.
