  SPECIAL CHILDREN Proverbs 23:15-25  Devotional:- “Do not let your heart envy sinners, But be zealous for the fear of the LORD all the day” (V.17) NKJV Today, the lives of children in most nations are becoming a great trouble. Many parents have lost control of their children. But in the midst of these hopeless situations of the future generation, yet some children allow the word of God to rule their lives, such children have the fear of God in them. These are children who keep a wise heart and who have learnt the right use of their lips. Who don’t open their lip to speak just anything but the truth and wisdom (Proverbs 23:16). These are children who don’t envy the way of sin, nor do they get themselves involved in the sinful nature of this generation. Rather, they fear the Lord, and this affects everything they do (Proverbs 23:17). Most of the youths of this day go into untimely relationships and cheating everywhere because of fear of failure and fear of tomorrow. But these p...

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”.

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.
