  REHEARSAL FOR ETERNITY Ecclesiastes 3:9-15 Devotional:- “He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end” (V.11) It is important you realize that life here is a rehearsal for eternity. Just like you spend nine month in your mother’s womb, but that was a preparation for the real life, so also is life here compared to eternity. No matter how many years you spend here it is not up to one percent of eternity.  The scripture we read today says that God has planted eternity in our heart. That is why you don’t want to die. But as God’s kingdom citizen, death is not your termination but transition. So, choosing where to spend eternity is what we do here. This is by choosing to relate with Jesus the son of God or with sin and devil. That means these two relationship determines where you will spend your eternity (John 3:16).  The best way to live as a child of God ...

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.

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 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.
