PEACE

  PEACE John 14:19-31  Devotional:- “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (27) NKJV Peace has been the desire of every nation and tribe. Even the United Nations (UN) is set up for peacemaking in the world. But the more the world seeks peace, the less they have it. This is because man cannot give peace. Until the world embraces the Prince of Peace, her peace may not be established. Though we are in the world, we are not of the world. The love of Christ for us has given us peace. He is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6). The world does not know this because they are not of his own. Peace is a product of the love of God for you. If you don’t have it, receive it from today. This peace begins in our heart, and it goes on to affect everything around us. Since the world does not have it within, they cannot manifest it. Jesus said, He has given you His peace. So, you have it fro...

UNDERSTANDING THE KINGDOM

UNDERSTANDING THE KINGDOM     

Philippians 2:5-11
Devotional:-  “and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (v. 11)

   The kingdom of God is where God rules and reign. The word kingdom is from two words combined - ‘King’ ‘domain’. The domain of a king is what is called his kingdom. The word domain means territory or sphere of influence of a ruler. The kingdom of God is wherever God rules. Since God is the creator of the earth, He wants to rule everywhere. 

 
   The word of God says, every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is Lord. God gave the rulership of this world to Adam who lost it to the devil. But God has gained the rulership of this world through Jesus who redeemed us to God by His blood (Revelation 5:9-10). That is why evil, sicknesses or poverty has no right over your life. The time has come to define who is ruling in your heart. Is it Jesus or Satan? Is it sin or righteousness? 
 
   It is not those who just go to church that are candidate of the kingdom of God but those who allow Him to rule in their heart (Matthew 7:15-23). The kingdom of God and of the devil can't rule your life together. Light and darkness can't stay together (2 Corinthians 6:14-16). Many people thought they are children of God, but they live in sin. Sinful life is a characteristic of the kingdom of the devil. Everyone who lives in sin belong to the devil, says the word of God (1 John 3:8). If God is not ruling over your life you do not belong to His kingdom (Matthew 7:21-23). Allow His kingdom in your life from today and your life shall be set to reflect the glory of His kingdom. Peace.
 
Prayer: Lord, I rededicate my life for your kingdom from now.
 
“IF JESUS IS NOT YOUR KING, YOU DO NOT BELONG TO HIS KINGDOM”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

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.
