APPRECIATION

  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,...

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”

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.

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.
