SPIRIT OF WISDOM I Corinthians 2:6-10 Devotional:- “But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory” (V.7) NKJV The mind of every man is created to operate wisdom even at the level of common sense. This is one of the reasons why many are poor. The reason why this is so is that most human beings do not know how to empower their mind for wisdom with the right and quality information. They rather believe that life is all about making do with everything that comes their way. Wrong information and association have made many minds dull (Proverbs 13:20).

MINDSET OF THE CITIZEN
Psalm 23:1-6 Devotional: “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want” (v. 1)
The mindset determines your view of life, your thinking pattern and your portion in life. The word of God says, as a man thinks, so he will be (Proverbs 23:7). Someone said, your life will sooner or later turn to the direction of your thinking.
A mindset is a thinking pattern your life is fixed on. In the kingdom of God, we are not given a failure, poverty or defeated mentality. We are not given a thought to have a fearful or weakling mentality (2 Timothy 1:7). Think only the way the word of God has thought you to think (Philippians 4:8). The word of God is the greatest truth you can ever encounter. When situation want to prove you wrong, insist on the word of God.
David’s mindset is that, God is his shepherd and he cannot lack. He knows that God will always supply his needs. The word of God say, God is your healer and will always heal you (Exodus 15:26). Let this set in your mind i.e. think this way. He said He will always make a way for you, even where you least expected (Isaiah 43:19, I Corinthians 10:13). Take your Bible as the covenant word of God for your life. It will give you a winning mindset for great life. Don’t let anybody’s progress intimidate you. Your life will sooner or later become your thinking pattern and the will of God will manifest in your life. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, give me a renewed mind in your word.
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.
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.
ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
