SERVING WITH JOY

SERVING WITH JOY Deuteronomy 28:47-52 Devotional:- “Because you did not serve the LORD your God with joy and gladness of heart, for the abundance of everything” (V.47) NKJV A greater percentage of people do not know what stops their glory. They just suddenly discover that things just stop working out for them. In their ignorance, they accuse God and the devil for their predicament. You need to know from now that one of the things responsible is when people don’t serve with joy. People are always in haste to expect reward for their service. When it looks delayed, they begin to serve with grudges in their mind. God told the Israelites that if they did not serve God with a joyful heart, they would serve their enemy. This is actually too grievous, but men are also not always understanding. Something in us always looks so high that we don’t see what the Lord is doing, but we will always see what he has not done. This makes it difficult to serve with joy. Many are wounded by their delayed ex...

KNOWLEDGE BASED            

Read: Daniel 11:29-39
Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits. (Vs. 32).


    The kingdom of God is not for people who hate knowledge (Hosea 4:6). Anyone who feels that knowledge is a burden will be easily deceived by the devil. He will not be able to achieve much in God. Many have not laid hands on the constitution of their countries, not to talk of knowing what is there. You cannot do that with the kingdom of God. It is too delicate and dangerous.
 
    The word of God says that those who disobey the covenant shall be corrupted with flattery. You know what happens when a computer system is corrupt. It will be malfunctioning. The same applies to people whose lives are without the knowledge of their God.
 
    A major way through which God can make Himself known to man is by His word. All we need to know about God is written in His word. It is therefore our responsibility to find it out (Proverbs 25:2). You need to know what the will of God for your life is. You must find out what He wants and what He does not want. You also need to know your right in God. You need to know what to do to overcome and succeed in this wicked world. While others are running about, you will be doing exploit in God in Jesus name. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, give me a thirsty heart for your word.
 
“HE THAT DOES NOT KNOW HIS RIGHT WILL SURRENDER IN EVERY BATTLE”

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.

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.
