JOY IN THE CITY

    JOY IN THE CITY Acts 8:1-8 Devotional:- “And there was great joy in that city” (v.8) NKJV Another powerful producer of joy is Christ in your life (Colossians 1:27). Christ can change our sorrow into joy. He came to set us free from the power that caged us in sorrow. He came to give us the key to joy. Many have not come to know that having Christ in their life is not just about going to church. The truth you need to hear is that when you give room to Christ in your life, you have given room to joy (Luke 2:10). The scripture we read today is the report of what happened to the city of Samaria. They accommodated Jesus Christ in their life, and God’s word reported that there was great joy in that city. The confusion is that there are many in church today without Christ; they have confessed Jesus Christ as their Saviour, but they don’t have room for him in their heart. They are workers and leaders, but have no room for Christ. When Christ has room in your life, He will change yo...

THE QUALITY SEED

THE QUALITY SEED            

Read: Luke 21:1-4
For all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had” (Vs. 4)

    The quality of a seed is evident in the richness of its fruits. In the kingdom of this world, we celebrate those who give big gifts but that is not so in the kingdom of God. In the kingdom of God, the quality of your love determines the quality of your seed. You can see the quality of the love of God in His willingness to give His only son (John 3:16). That was His all.
     Jesus was in the temple and people were giving their offerings. Jesus comment that those were giving big offerings took it from their fat account. A widow brought what looked small to man but that was all she had. To God, when you give your all, you have given your best. No one wants to accept a 70% marriage but a 100% marriage.
 
    Friend, stop reserving your strength to serve the Lord. Abraham gave his only son, Isaac. Hannah gave her only son, Samuel. They all bagged greatness in God. Be willing to give your all into anything you do for God. 99.999% is not comparable to the best. Give your heart and life totally to God. Don’t divide your offerings or tithes so that you can get the best of God. It is your day!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to give my best to You.
 
“ONLY THOSE WHO GIVE ALL CAN EARN THE BEST FROM GOD”

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.

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.
