  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

CHURCH FELLOWSHIP

CHURCH FELLOWSHIP          

Psalms 84:1-12
Devotional:- “They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before God in Zion” (V. 7)


 

   The fellowship of the church is a place of strength for our victory. Only a strong man can win in the battle of life (Proverbs 24:10). Children of the living God are strong because God is strong. That is why you must not let the devil reduce the fellowship of the church to mere place of meeting with friends. It is what you take a thing to be that it will be to you. 
 
   The word of God referred to gathering of children of God as Mount Zion. It is called the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, where there is innumerable company of angels. The general assembly and the church of the first born that are registered in heaven. God is always there, Jesus is always there. In the church, the blood speak better things (Hebrews 12:22-24).
 
   That is why; those who imbibe the habit of being in God’s house will go from strength to strength. You cannot be in fellowship with God and be weak. You must be careful not to allow what you are going through to determine who you will be. The project that fails in your hand does not make you a failure. That you are going through a challenge does not mean your church is a disappointment. If Jesus can go through challenges, then, all of us will (Luke 23:31; John 16:33). Challenges are there to make us strong (Hebrews 12:11, Hebrews 5:8). So, it should not be the reason to turn you away from the church Jesus. It is as you hold on, that you become victorious. Be wise. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to connect to your house for my victory.
 
“YOU CAN’T BE FELLOWSHIPPING WITH POWERS AND BE WEAK”

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.
