PEACE

  PEACE John 14:19-31  Devotional:- “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (27) NKJV Peace has been the desire of every nation and tribe. Even the United Nations (UN) is set up for peacemaking in the world. But the more the world seeks peace, the less they have it. This is because man cannot give peace. Until the world embraces the Prince of Peace, her peace may not be established. Though we are in the world, we are not of the world. The love of Christ for us has given us peace. He is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6). The world does not know this because they are not of his own. Peace is a product of the love of God for you. If you don’t have it, receive it from today. This peace begins in our heart, and it goes on to affect everything around us. Since the world does not have it within, they cannot manifest it. Jesus said, He has given you His peace.

GREATNESS IN THE KINGDOM

GREATNESS IN THE KINGDOM   

Mark 10:35-45
Devotional: “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (v. 43)
 
    
     The God of this kingdom is great and everyone who is a citizen of the kingdom of God has a heritage of greatness (Luke 1:32). This is not just a mere statement, it is the covenant of God for His people (Genesis 12:1-3, Galatians 3:13-14). That is why you must wait on Him to receive your own vision of greatness.
 
    In the word of God, Jesus gave us one of the secrets that qualify us for greatness in the kingdom of God. It is humbling self to serve in His kingdom. It may look confusing to think of how can service lead to greatness?
 
    It is service that enlists you in work with others. It is service that gives you the opportunity to discover, test and demonstrate your abilities. It is service that will reveal you to your world. It is service that will make people need you. It is service that makes people value you, recommend you and remember you in time of need (Genesis 41:9-14). If others are too big to serve, don’t envy them. The ladder to the top in this kingdom is service, be wise. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, give me a humble heart to serve in your kingdom.
 
“IF YOU ARE TOO BIG TO SERVE, THEN YOU ARE TOO SMALL TO BE GREAT”.
