DON'T HATE

  DON’T HATE Matthew 5:43-48  Devotional:- “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,” (V. 44) NKJV The subject of love is not always easy to practise between you, and those who have shown themselves as committed enemies. Those who will openly stand against you. Those who just hate you for no reason. Those who don’t pray that anything good should happen to you. Yet the Bible gave us a commandment in the midst of it all to love and never to hate them. What a great task! But until a Christian grows to this level, he cannot actually be called mature. The way to handle it is that we should bless those who curse us. Always do good to those who hate you. If they are moved by the spirit in them to do evil to you, be moved by the Spirit in you to love them. We cannot truly say we love till we can prayerfully demonstrate the character of love. In your time, consciously me...

STAND IN VICTORY

STAND IN VICTORY          

Psalms 20:1-9
Devotional:- “They have bowed down and fallen; But we have risen and stand upright” (V. 8)


   So many people in the world today are actually standing for nothing specifically. It is often said that, he that stand for nothing, falls for all things. That is why it is important that you choose where to stand. No decision is worst more than bad decision. Choose where to stand (Joshua 24:15).
 
   David said “some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we remember the name of the Lord our God. They have fallen and have risen and standing upright”. To stand in victory meant to make up one’s mind to stand in the victory provided on the Cross of Jesus. It is to believe in His victory for us (John 16:33). It is to be ready to risk one’s life than doubting the victory by the Cross of Jesus (John 19:30; Revelation 12:11).
 
   Friend, it is good to play safe, but it is wisdom to stand in faith. You cannot overcome standing here and there. A little worldliness and a little godliness will fail (James 4:4, Revelation 3:15-16). A little faith and a little fear will not work (Job 3:25). Stop standing on the fence. Come into victory with Jesus. Stop being a lukewarm Christian. It is then you will see others fall but you will remain standing tall in Jesus name (Job 22:29). Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the courage to stand in you.
 
“PLEASE DO ALL WITHIN YOU TO STAND”

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.
