STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

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.
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.
