BECOMING LIKE CHRIST

  BECOMING LIKE CHRIST Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the first born among many brethren” (V. 29) The third purpose of your life is to become like Christ. From the very beginning God intend to make man to be like Himself (Gen 1:26). So like God, we are made a spirit and our spirit lives the body. We are intellectual, we can think and solve problems. We are relational, i.e. we can give and receive love. We also have a moral conscience to discern right from wrong which make us accountable to God. God’s ultimate goal for you on earth is not comfort but character. He wants you to grow up and become like Christ. This does not mean losing your personality. Christlikeness is all about transforming your character and not your personality. Every time you forget that character development is the reason you are here you frustrate yourself. So, life is quite challenging because God is always attem...

THE UNSEEN FORCES

THE UNSEEN FORCES         

Read: Mark 4:26-29
And should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know how (Vs. 27)

    The spiritual force that carries out assignments are invisible to the natural eyes. There are so many things going on around the world which the physical eyes cannot see. They are invisible, more powerful and eternal (2 Corinthians 4:18).
The word of God says, Jesus gave a parable of the kingdom of God as the operation of invisible forces. A man planted a seed and went to sleep. When he rose up, he saw what amazed him. The seed had turned into a full grown plant and was ready for harvest.
 
    This illustrates how we engage the invisible by faith. When you cast out devils in the name of Jesus, it looks as though nothing has happened. But the invisible forces assume their duties to carry out your instruction. When you sow in obedience to God, to man it would seem like nothing has happened because he has no understanding of it. But the invisible forces take it up to ensure that your harvest comes. 
 
    That is why you need to believe God even if you can’t see Him (Hebrews 11:1-3). The realm of the spirit can only be exploited by faith (Romans 1:17, Hebrews 11:6). All you need to do is to believe the word of God. Learn to see things with your spiritual eyes the way the word of God says them. And your world will be turned around for greatness (Jeremiah 1:11-12).
 
Prayer: Lord, send forth Your angel to be in my favour today.
 
“WE ARE IN THE VISIBLE REALM BUT GOD OPERATES IN THE INVISIBLE”

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.
