A SINGING HEART

  A SINGING HEART Ephesians 5:10-20 Devotional:- “speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,” (v.19) NKJV Singing always, to some people, is equal to madness. Some believe that if you see a man who has never had a time of sorrow, then he is not a man. According to them, life must have ups and downs. But do you know that God want to simply make your days full of joy and void of sorrow. That is why Christ came to carry our sorrows away. If He has come to carry our sorrow away, then it is wrong to expect yourself to still be living in what is no more available (Isaiah 53:4). What the bible is teaching us today is contrary to what men will teach. God’s word wants us to always sing and be joyful. That is why God’s word says; rejoice in the Lord always and not sometimes (Philippians 4:4). Listen to this, if you want to be joyful and void of sorrow for the rest of your life, you need to pray it into your life. Sing...

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”

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.
