  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

WHERE IS THE KINGDOM?

WHERE IS THE KINGDOM?             

Luke 17:20-23
Devotional:- “nor will they say, 'See here!' or 'See there!' For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you" (v.21)
 
  
     The domain or territory of the kingdom of God is in the heart of men (Act 17:24). God is a spirit and He dwells in the heart of men (Proverbs 23:26). The kingdom of God is therefore in the heart of men and it does not have a geographical limitation like that of the kingdom of men.
 
   The word of God says, the people were expecting the kingdom of God to arrive. To them it is an opportunity to escape from the kingdom and suffering of this world but Jesus told them, yes the rapture will take place but only for the people Jesus is ruling in their heart (Matthew 7:21-23). The reason Jesus is still patience to come is because; so many people even in the church are not domain of Christ. This is the reason the devil has right to torment people even in the church. He has a covenant right over those who are not committed to the kingdom of God and are living in sin (1 John 3:8). To stop his right over your life, you must make a conscious decision to be a citizen of the kingdom of Christ and stop living in sin.
 
   To be a domain of Christ is to always acknowledge and allow Him to direct our path (Proverbs 3:5-6). These are the only people Jesus is coming for (Romans 8:14, Luke 7:20-21). You will not miss your flight. Peace.
 
Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to always do what pleases you
 
“CHRIST DOMAIN IS WHEREVER A TRUE CHILD OF GOD IS”

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.
