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...

BLESSINGS    

Matthew 5:1-12
Devotional: “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (v. 10)
 
   
     One major characteristic of God is that, He loves to bless His people. That is why the citizen of the kingdom can have access to His blessings. This is one of the reasons Jesus went on the cross to deliver us from a life of curses and spells of the wicked ones and to give us the blessing of Abraham (Galatians 3:13-14).
 
    Jesus is showing us the ways to the blessings of the kingdom of God. He says those who are poor in the spirit will receive the heaven’s blessing. To be poor in the spirit is to look at self less and more unto God. This will open heaven over you. Blessed are those who refuse to be complacent or satisfied but seeking God always, their time of comfort will come. Blessed are the meek (patience, teachable, and humble) they shall access the secrets of heaven blessings (Matthew 5:5). To be hunger and thirsty for God is to long to know and please God always (Matthew 5:6).
 
     The merciful will also receive mercy (Matthew 5:7). The pure in heart are those by faith are free to relate with God, they will find God (Matthew 5:8). The peace maker shall be honored (Matthew 5:9). The persecuted for Christ sake will be highly recompensed in eternity (Matthew 5:10).
Take time to build this virtues to your life and you will experience eternal blessings of God. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to connect with your eternal blessing.

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.
