  LIVING WITH PURPOSE Proverbs 19:16-23 Devotional – “You can make many plans, but the LORD's purpose will prevail” (v. 21 NLT) Living on purpose is the only way to really live; everything else just merely exists. Most people struggle with these three questions in life; WHO AM I? (Identity); WHY AM I MADE? (Purpose); WHAT IS MY PLACE IN LIFE? (Impact). The answers to these entire questions are found in five Gods purpose for you. Now that you know God’s purpose for your life, it is important you live in it. For you not to drift away from the most important things of life, it is important to develop a purpose statement for your life and regularly review it. This is a statement that summarizes God’s purpose for your life (Psalm 39:11). It is a statement that point the direction of your life (Proverbs 4:26). It spells out what you are to do and what not (Proverbs 17:24). It is a statement that defines success for you (Philippians 1:10). It is a statement that clarifies your roles and i...

KINGDOM OF POWER           

Read: I Corinthians 4:17-21
For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power. (Vs. 20)


    Every believer must know that the kingdom of God is characterized with power. It is important that you get used to power as a child of God. As a child of God, you must not be a victim of the devil who is the enemy of God and man. Being involved in a religion makes a man a victim. This is because religion is always void of the manifestation of power (Colossians 2:23).
 
    Power is the demonstration as well as the manifestation of the working strength of God. This working strength of God is the mysteries of God, which when demonstrated in understanding are able to put the devil under a check. The devil cannot contend with the power of God because it is a done deal. It is sealed and already perfected by Jesus on the cross.
 
    That is why as a child of God you must not be ignorant of your right over the power of the enemy. If the Spirit of God is in you, then you should get angry and pray for people whenever you see them sick or living under any form of affliction. The reason is that sickness and affliction are the manifestations of the devil. Get used to laying hands on the sick and they will be healed (Mark. 16:17-18). Get used to issuing commands in the name of Jesus and the devil will flee from you (James 4:7; I Peter 5:9). Don’t ever be in doubt or fear. (2 Tim 1:7; James 1:6-7). As you do this, you will see the power of God being demonstrated through your life on daily basis. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, baptize me with your power.
 
“IT IS EITHER THE DEVIL FLEES FROM YOU OR YOU FLEE FROM HIM. CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT”

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.
