PRESENCE OF GOD  Psalm 16:5-11 Devotional:- “You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore” (v.11) NKJV As good as joy is, one of the greatest tasks of joy is sustaining it. So the world always finds it difficult to sustain. Many cannot even experience it for more than two hours per week. This is because they have not located the source of joy. As a believer, you need to know that joy is a product of the presence of God. Wherever God’s presence is, our scripture today says joy will fill the place. It means the oxygen and the hydrogen of the atmosphere of God are joy. So you cannot be in His presence and not know joy. No wonder David said he is always glad when it is time to go to the house of the Lord. (Psalm 122:1). To experience the presence of the Lord, you need to be filled with the Holy Spirit, and then His presence will be within you. You also need to believe that He is with you according to His word.

LOVING GOD    

Matthew 22:34-40
Read:    “Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'” (V. 37)


    As you are faced with the New Year ahead, there is a need to grow in your relationship with God. The word of God says the path of the just shines brighter and brighter (Proverbs 4:18). One of the ways to grow in your relationship with God, is to love God more than you have loved Him before. 

 
    The Bible says, we should love the Lord with all our heart, our soul, and with our entire mind. This means we should grow to live a life of total love for God. Our love to God is evident when we obey His instructions (John 14:23). Our love to God is evident in how much we love each other (1 John 4:8). We can demonstrate our love for God by serving in His kingdom. If we love Him, there will be nothing too big to give for the growth of His kingdom (John 3:16).
 
    Be willing to give your heart to Him (Proverbs 23:26). Be willing to invest time in serving the Lord; be willing to serve in one department or the other in the house of the Lord. Be a soul winner with all excitement. (Proverbs 11:30). This year, He will surprise you with His loving kindness. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to truly live in your love for my life.
 
“LIVING IN LOVE IS LIVING IN GOD”

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.

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.
