MEDITATION Psalm 1:1-6 Devotional:- “But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night..” (v.2) NKJV God’s word describes someone blessed because he/she meditates on the word of God, day and night. How can this be? The word of God is the source of inspiration that strengthens us to perform (John 1:1-3). The Bible told us that God is a spirit; therefore, meditating on the word of God is drawing on the strength of the spirit (John 6:63).

ACCESSING YOUR PORTION
Read: Luke 18:1-8 And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? (Vs.7)
The key to accessing our portion in the kingdom of God is persistence. This is an act of faith which is not willing to turn to another quarter for solution. To persist is to pray without being discouraged until something happens. It is a decision based on the knowledge of the faithfulness of God. No matter how tough your situation may be, when you persist in prayers for your right in God, He will have no option but to give you access.
This kingdom principle is explained in the parable of Jesus. It emphasizes on a woman who persisted in asking for her portion from the judge. She got what she is looking for and went away justified. The same thing applies to children of God who persist with God. Jesus says, God will answer us speedily.
The attitude of persistence is for the determined as well as the matured. God sees persistent people as people that are qualified for their portion. Hannah persisted and sought her portion in prayers. Esther persisted and said, ‘If I die, I die’ (Esther 4:16). Daniel also persisted. All these people were given access to their portions and God answered their prayers. If you will not give up, your enemy will, and you will laugh last. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, strengthen me not to give up.
“PERSISTENCE GROWS YOU STRONGER UNTIL YOU BREAKTHROUGH”
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.
YOU HAVE TO FIGHT Deuteronomy 20:1-4 Devotional:- “When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt” (V. 4) NKJV God’s children must come to realize that our victory has been purchased by by the blood of Jesus, but we have to fight to establish it in our lives. If you have to face the devil, it will be impossible to defeat him. he was in a greater glory before than you are now. He has been in a battle game before the creation of man (Revelation 12:7-8). He knows far more than we do.
