  A SAVIOUR Matthew 1:18-25  Devotional:- “...for He will save His people from their sins”. (V. 21) Due to the multiplication of man, the increase and enlargement of needs, life is almost becoming a tragedy for the human race. It is becoming complicated for the government to successfully govern the people. Diseases and strange kinds of sickness are increasingly multiplying. Human and science solution is becoming unpromising to the challenges of life. The technologies men have built have become a trap and an unpredictable time bomb. The devices of wickedness in the hearts of men are becoming unbelievable. The relationship between people that made life bearable in the past is sacrificed for safety, so loneliness, one of the greatest enemies of man, is being joyfully embraced. And living is becoming a mixture ofjoy and sorrow. Yet in the midst of all of these, there is a way out to anyone who will embrace it. God has given us Jesus Christ as our Saviour. Not only to bring us to h...

LOVE AND RESTORATION

LOVE AND RESTORATION  

Read: Luke 15:11-32
For this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry. (Vs. 24)

    The God of this kingdom is love personified (1 John 4:7-8). That is, He Himself is love. Citizens of the kingdom of God always enjoy the demonstration of the love of God. This love attitude of God makes us enjoy forgiveness of our sins and restoration to fellowship with Him. This is not a practice in the other kingdom.
 
    We read today about the parable of a lost son. We are used to call him the prodigal son. This parable relays the attitude of the love of God to us. It demonstrates how God allows us to make mistakes, repent of them and eventually accepts us when we return to Him.
 
    The prodigal son demanded for his right from the father. This is how we ought to ask things from God in prayers for He always answer our prayers (Matthew 7:7-12). He has covenanted Himself to us to do so. So, be bold to always turn to Him in prayers, making your requests known to Him (Mark 11:24). In his suffering, he came back to his senses (Luke 15:17). He humbled himself, made up his mind and went back to the father to ask for mercy. Whenever you are away from God and you feel the pains, return to Him with a sincere heart and you will find forgiveness (1 John 1:7-9) and God will fully restore your joy (Ps. 51:12). Grace and strength in God can be restored. I see your joy come back to you. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, restore all that I have lost in Christ
 
“IN GOD, ALL THINGS CAN BE RESTORED”

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.
