  ATMOSPHERE OF LOVE l John 4:12-19 Devotional:- “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.“ (V. 18) NKJV In any environment where love is predominant, such environment will be characterized with liberty. So many people who desire an atmosphere of love today unconsiciously create barriers agaisnt it by not creating a free environment. In the home of some people, though they complain there is no love, they don’t create liberty among themselves. The scripture we read today says, “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. “A very good portrait of love is the atmosphere God created in the garden of Eden at creation. God wanted love, and so He made it a free relationship. Liberty is not an absence of rules and regulations but the joy of living by the rules without fear. Liberty without laws will surely lead to sin. That time, God will come down in His glory and ma...

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”

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.
