  APPRECIATION Psalm 92:1-10 Devotional:- “It is good to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High” (v.1) NKJV It is in the habit of most people that when they are expecting something from God, they will do everything possible to gain His favour. But as soon as it is done, that thing loses value to them. So, people only value what they don’t have. This sometimes does not make us have a heart of gratitude to God. We will always promise to give thanks, but as soon as we receive our expectations, some will forget to give thanks. Many do not know that the opportunity or privilege that is available to them is what qualifies them for what they are expecting. But they look down on this because their expectations have not been met. Your health is more important than travelling abroad. The breath of life you enjoy is far more valuable than the car or job you are expecting. In fact, this qualifies you for those things. Friend, no matter what God has done for you,...

LIVING IN THE ROCK

LIVING IN THE ROCK            

Colossians 3:1-11
Devotional:- “For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God” (V. 3)


 

   No one can stay in a rock and be affected by any form of wicked weapon. Nothing of such can penetrate the rock. To blow a rock is one of the highest risks anyone can take. The rock is one of the hardest substances on the earth. Jesus liken a man to be a wise man when he builds on the rock, how much more when, he lives in the rock (Matthew 7:24). 
 
   The word of God talked about a rock in the Old Testament. This was the rock through which God provided water for the children of Israel in the wilderness (Exodus 17:6, Numbers 20:10-11). God gave a prophecy that He will put this rock in the coming Zion (Isaiah 28:16). Jesus referred to this rock as the Chief cornerstone (Luke 20:7). The Bible told us that this rock is what   formed the foundation of the church (Matthew 16:18). That is why no power has been able to destroy the church.
 
   The Bible says that Jesus is the rock (1 Corinthians 10:4). The Bible refer to believers as living stones (1 Peter 2:4-6). Our live is said to be in Him (Colossians 3:3-4). So, spiritually, you are in the rock which is Christ (1 Corinthians 10:4). That rock will destroy anyone who stand against you (Luke 20:18).Whoever offend Him shall stumble and fall (1 Peter 2:8). As you put your faith in this rock of ages, you will not be put to shame (1 Peter 2:6). Standing in there makes you stand in victory. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, as l stand in the rock I am eternally secured.
 
“RESULT OR INSULT, IT IS A MATTER OF WHERE YOU ARE STANDING”

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.
