A HEART OF BLESSING

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.

TRICKS OF THE DEVIL

TRICKS OF THE DEVIL        

Luke 4:1-13
Devotional: “And Jesus answered and said to him, "Get behind Me, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.'“ (v.8)


 

     Jesus came to the world to establish a kingdom for God (John 18:37). This is because; God is the owner of heaven and the earth (Psalm 24:1). God made this world for the fulfillment of His plan and for His glory. But the devil has cunningly turned the world against God. The whole world lives under the deception of the devil (1 John 5:18-19). His approach is to give man pleasure and establish his kingdom and rulership in their heart. He has been using this trick from the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3:2-6). And people who are in quest of pleasure often sacrifices their long time blessing for a short time pleasure. 
 
    The word of God says, the devil came to Jesus to see if he can trick Him to possess Him like he did to Adam and Eve. That trick on Christ was actually met with failure. So, all his tricks on you and your family will fail in Jesus name.
 
   Friend, please understand the motive of the devil whenever he is suggesting pleasurable ideas without godly motive to you. The trick is to enlist you under his domain. For whoever lives in sin is of the devil (1 John 3:8). The pleasure offered by the devil is always temporary and for eternal regrets. Don't bow to him. Hold on to the word of God like Jesus did. No matter what you are going through, know that your God loves you. All are trials of your faith. As you stand strong in faith, the situation will bow out in Jesus name (1 John 5:4, Daniel 3:23-25). Peace.
 
Prayer: Lord strengthen me by faith to stand
 
“IF YOU DON’T BOW, YOU WILL NOT BE BURNT”

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.

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.
