  NATURE OF LOVE I Corinthians 13:1-8  Devotional:- "suffers long and is kind .. does not envy.. does not parade itself…” (V. 4). Since men do not have the actual understanding of love, they turn it into lust. And now it is lust most people call love. It is the reason for most frustration and discouragement today. The scripture we read today revealed to us the true nature of love. It reveals to us that no man’s service shall be acceptable or profitable until he puts in love (v. 1-3). The beautiful thing about the nature oflove is that it is the nature of God, for God is love (1 John 4:8). And if God dwells in us, love should also be demonstrated in us. The scripture says, love suffers long, that is why God loves to forgive his own people. Several times we have turned away from him, yet He does not turn away from us. He still looks for us. So also we should do for all we love. Love is kind, and that is why God has been kind to us. He doesn’t condemn us; He wants us to repent (E...

KINGS OF THE KINGDOM

KINGS OF THE KINGDOM   

Revelation 5: 8-14
Read: “And have made us kings and priests to our God; And we shall reign on the earth” (V. 10)



    In the kingdom of God, Jesus is the King of kings, but there are kings (Revelation 19:16). These are the ones who stand for Him in places on the earth. These are His ambassadors (2 Corinthians 5:20). These are His representatives on the earth. These are the ones who rules over the forces of darkness by faith in Christ Jesus (Mark 16:17-18). These are the ones who are taking territory for Jesus. This office is given to all true believers who is taking their place in God. They know their position in God (Daniel 11:32). They know the authority they have in Christ over devil, sickness, sorrow and all the works of the enemy.
 
   Friend, it is either you are ruling in Christ or you are been ruled by the enemy. The truth is that Jesus has given authority to all believers to be able to take dominion over the forces of life (Luke 10:19). If you are been dominated in any way, it is because you are not dominating. If you are a child of God, understand that you are to take charge for God wherever you are.
 
   Make up your mind to join the rulers in Christ Jesus. This is by seeking to know Him (Daniel 11:32). Stop been a nominal Christian who just attend the church on Sundays. That way, the enemy will cunningly be ruling in your affairs. Draw near to Christ and He will draw near to you. (James 4:8). Willingly give yourself to learning His word to know Him (Philippians 3:10). Then you shall be a sign, a wonder and unstoppable in your world. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to draw near to you.
 
“YOU ARE EITHER DOMINATING OR BEEN DOMINATED”

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.
