  HAPPY CHILDREN Ephesians 6:1-4 Devotional:- “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right” (V. 1) NKJV  Children are always very happy. Research said an average child laughs between 300 to 400 times in a day. They sometimes wonder why Daddy and Mummy don’t laugh as they do. That is the reason children also need the wisdom to sustain their Joy despite their age. Our scripture today teaches children who want to remain happy to be obedient to their parents. God organizes the home as a school of life for children and parents, and is the major teacher. As long as your parent teaches you in the way of the Lord, be obedient to them. Honour your parents always. To honour means to respect and yield to their guide. By so doing, you will make them glad, and you will also remain a joyful person all the days of your life.  Always remember that it is what you so that you will reap. Their words may not look like wisdom to you now, this is because of your level of maturit...

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”.

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.

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.
