DARLING OF GOD

DARLING OF GOD I John 4:11-21 Devotional:- “If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?” (V. 20) NKJV God has some darlings He loves in the world, and they also love Him. They seek Him, and He seeks them. They long for Him, and He longs for them. You will know such people by the way they relate to others. Today, most people think the measure for their love for God is by the number of chapters of the Bible they read daily, the number of hours and times they pray daily, the numerous assignments they do in the church or the number of posts they occupy in the church. All of these are good things to do for the Lord, but it is not a true measurement of our love for God. Most of these are what make us grow in Christ, but the fundamental measurement of our love for God is how much we love others (1 Corinthians 13:1-2). All other spiritual activities must be bo...

LIFE IN THE KINGDOM

LIFE IN THE KINGDOM      

Mark 10:13-16
Read: “Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it” (V. 15)


 


   Every kingdom has its own life style. The way they live in this country is different from the way they live in other countries. In some countries, cars are made with the steering by the right side, in others, left sides. In some countries you have to drive on the left side and in others on the right. To enjoy your stay in any land, you must learn and abide by the life style or culture of the land.
 
   In the kingdom of God, Jesus said you cannot be part except you are willing to live like a child. It’s actually wrong to expect an adult to behave like a child, but this is right in God’s kingdom. There are many things that we need to unlearn to be a part of God’s kingdom.
 
   A child depends on the parents, so we have to depend on God (Proverbs 3:5-6). A child fears the parent, so we have to fear God (Psalm 25:12-13). A child easily forgive, so we have to (Matthew 6:14-15). A child believes what the parent tells him, so we must believe the word of God. (John 1:12). A child obeys the parents and we need to learn to easily obey the Lord. Using your brain to sought out your life without God will always lead to frustration (Proverbs 3:5), Embrace His ways and wisdom and your life will take a shape of peace and prosperity. Peace.
 
Prayer: Lord, teach me your way by the Holy Spirit
 
“YOU CAN GRADUATE FROM A CHILD TO A SON OF GOD BUT NOT TO AN UNCLE”.

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.
