A HEART OF BLESSING Matthew 20:20-28 Devotional:- “just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many” (V. 28) NKJV As believers, the greatest opportunity you can ever have is to be a blessing. When a life is not a blessing, it cannot be fulfilled. The truth is that you are not in this world for yourself. We came here for God and others. If not for others, you would not be needed. So you are only important when others can be affected by your life.

PURPOSE OF THE KINGDOM
Revelation 21:1-8 DEVOTIONAL: “And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God” (V.3)
God is love. Love is not just His attitude; He is love personified (1 John 4:7-8). This means, love is His nature. That is why wherever God is; love will be there and vice versa. The word of God says, whoever do not love does not know God (1 John 4:8). True Love is of God. He made us to love us. That is why He will not just destroy man totally no matter what.
In the Garden of Eden, He made man and will always come down in the cool of the day to relate with them (Genesis 3:8-10). That’s why He sent His only begotten son to the world to save us (John 3:16). God in His goodness is the best humanity can have. Yet the devil always cunningly deceives man to feel God is a burden or not needed.
The total consummation of the plan of God is to dwell among men. He wants to be with us and give us the best. No other human government or leader can be as good and perfect like Him. That is why this year you will have the best. The purpose of the kingdom of God is that, He might dwell with men. If you embrace His will, His way and wisdom, you will have His best (Isaiah 1:19 NIV). Your life will be heaven on earth without a room for the devil around you. Peace.
Prayer: Lord, make me and my family your domain forever.
“IT WILL BE HEAVEN ON EARTH FOR YOU WHEN JESUS RULES YOUR LIFE”
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 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 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.
