THINK FORWARD

  THINK FORWARD John 6:3-13 Devotional:- “…gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost” (V.12) KJV  Coming to a period like this, so many people have gathered so much to be enjoyed. This time also, so many homes enjoy so much of abundance of many good things. The government also releases more money to the Society in form of incentives for their staffs and benefactors. Most country enjoys abundance in their society at this time. But only few people think forward that they should not finish it all now. It is this lack of wisdom that makes many to lack at the beginning of every year. But you should be wise. In the scripture we read today, even though God has provided abundantly for the people to eat yet Jesus knew it is wisdom not to waste the remnant. So He asked them to gather it. This will at last meet the need of another time for other people (Proverbs 13:22-25). Friend, don’t eat and waste everything in this season, learn to keep Something for the coming year s...

CHILDREN OF THE KINGDOM

CHILDREN OF THE KINGDOM                     

Read: John 1:6-12
But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name. (Vs.12)
 
    Citizenship of the kingdom of God is by faith in the salvation and redemption Jesus brought. Please, remember that we are learning about a spiritual kingdom and not physical one. So, the materials for citizenship are not human but are by faith.
 
    God sent Jesus into the world for the purpose of bringing the sons and daughters of men into His kingdom. That is why it will be wrong to look at Christianity as a religion. It is the kingdom of God. The assignment of Jesus was carried out by Him shedding His precious blood so as to pay the price of our redemption from the kingdom of darkness into His marvelous light. That is, taking us away from the devil’s kingdom and bringing us to God’s kingdom (Colossians 1:13-14). He had to pay with His blood which contain His life, because that is the currency in the spirit realm (Leviticus 17:11). He died the death sinners ought to die according to the law (Romans 6:23, 5:6-8).
 
    To become a citizen of God’s kingdom, you only need to accept and believe that He shed His blood for you. That conferred on you the right and power to become a child of God, not of the flesh but of the spirit. This then gives you access to all the goodness and blessings of God. As a child of God, the enemy has no legal right over your life. You are free from his kingdom because you have become a New Creature in Christ Jesus. It's a new day!
 
Prayer: Lord, let my believe in your death and the shed of your blood qualify me for God’s sonship.
 
“IF JESUS’ DEATH IS NOT FOR YOU, THEN YOU WILL DIE FOR YOUR SINS”

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.

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.
