  JOY IN PRAYERS I Samuel 2:1-10 Devotional:- “And Hannah prayed and said: "My heart rejoices in the LORD; My horn is exalted in the LORD. I smile at my enemies, Because I rejoice in Your salvation.” (V. 1) NKJV We often fall into depression when we look around us, and all we see are unanswered prayers. It becomes worse when you are despised and mocked for that thing that you are looking up to God for. Hannah was like that, a depressed and unhappy woman. What was Hannah’s secret that made her proclaim to all that “my heart rejoices in the Lord”? 1. She decided to look away from her oppressor 2. She went to God in prayer, pouring her sorrow to God.  3. She made a vow to give God the child 4. She left the presence of God, believing God answers prayer. Hannah made good her vow, and her joy was full. Are you depressed? Pour your heart to God, make a vow to him, and you will see him answer your prayers and your joy will Come. Prayer: Lord, help me to look up to you, not look down o...

THE RULING KINGDOM

THE RULING KINGDOM            

Read: Daniel 4:24-37
They shall drive you from men, your dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make you eat grass like oxen. They shall wet you with the dew of heaven, and seven times shall pass over you, till you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever He chooses. (Vs. 25)
    Another major nature of the kingdom of God is sovereignty. It is a ruling kingdom. In other words, the kingdom of God enthrones and takes over thrones. Wherever the kingdom is established, kings and rulers will be raised over every other throne (Revelation 11:15). This is one of the things the devil does not want you to know (John 8:32).

    The Bible says king Nebuchadnezzar was boasting that he built his kingdom himself and never gave glory to God (Isaiah 48:11). God had to teach him a great lesson, until he realizes that God rules in the affairs of men. If there is any power boasting or proving to be something against your life, such power will soon come under your feet (Romans 16:20).
 
    The word of God says above only you shall be (Deuteronomy 28:13). The word of God says you shall be the head and not the tail. God’s word says you are redeemed to rule (Revelation 5:9-10). Friend, the spirit of this kingdom is a ruling Spirit. You are from above and you are above all (John 3:31). So, very soon, you will take over in your office, business, family, community and nation. Just keep obeying the Lord. You belong to a ruling kingdom.
 
Prayer: Lord, anoint me to rule over every forces around me.
 
“HE THAT IS FROM ABOVE WILL ALWAYS BE ABOVE”

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.

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.
