HOUSE HIM

  HOUSE HIM Proverbs 23:19-28  Devotional:- “My son, give me your heart, And let your eyes observe my ways.” (V. 26) NKJV No man can actually have the best of God until you are really ready to house Him. As a man that married a woman will have to house her so also in Christ, though He is our husband yet we have to house Him (Ephesians 5:28-29). The scripture we read today is the wise counsel of God to us as His son, saying “… son give me your heart.” This is because until you give your heart to a lover you cannot totally have the enjoyment of the fill of His love. You will observe that when a man is truly in love, his entire mind is rapped into the love for his beloved. He cannot help longing for him. Some will even have the picture with them always and anywhere. Just to see it and feel loved. A true lover will always long for their beloved. He does not stay late or long outside because the beloved is in the house waiting. Friend, do you really love God. Does His love fill you...

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.
