PURPOSE OF LOVE

  PURPOSE OF LOVE Romans 5:6-11 Devotional:- “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us..” (V. 8). NKJV Sometimes we make such a mistake as loving only our lovers. We do not often think that by this we fulfill the Law of Moses and not the law of grace, loving only those who love us and probably hating those who hate us. But this is not true love. If you understand the purpose of love, you will know that love is not needed when everyone is perfect, but most needed because we are not. The scripture we read today demonstrates one of the greatest acts of God’s love to us. And this is a revelation of God’s love to you. Even though you commit sin and He hates sin, yet He loves you. It is for your sake that He sent Jesus, His only son, to die on the cross. See, people may hate you for one reason or another, but God loves you. He so much believed in you that He had to give up His son to die for your sake (1 John 4:9-10). ...

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

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.
