SUCCESS YOUR PURPOSE 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Devotional:- “And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (V. 8) NLT When a person turns to the Lord, invite Jesus to his/her life, and surrender to Jesus as Lord and saviour, then he/she sincerely becomes a Christian. This is the state many in the church has not attained. Many struggle to surrender their lives to the Lord because they are afraid of failure, not able to trust God to give them success, and their love for the things of this world (1 John 2:15-17). When you sincerely surrender your life to Jesus Christ, your view of success cannot but change. Apostle Paul said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful” (2 Timothy 4:7). When you start to live for God, your definition of success will change from materials to purpose. Liv...

THE UNSTOPPABLE KINGDOM

THE UNSTOPPABLE KINGDOM       

Read: Mark 4:30-32
But when it is sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out large branches, so that the birds of the air may nest under its shade.” (Vs. 32)

    There is no power or force that can stop God. So, His kingdom operations are unstoppable. If anyone tries to stop the kingdom of God, such will have to stop living (Luke 20:18). That is why as a citizen of the kingdom of God, you are unstoppable.
 
    Jesus likened the kingdom of God to a small seed called the mustard seed. Though the smallest of all seeds, when it is sown, it soon become a great tree that all birds want to take solace in. The seed of God is His word and His spirit (Mark 4:14). I call it the Spirit of the word (John 6:63, Ezekiel 2:2). Wherever the word of God is, there will be possibility and greatness. Jesus also gave a parable of the sower and great were the fruits (Luke 8:4-8).
 
    Friend, the seed of God to greatness is His word. When the Spirit of the word comes upon you, anything you embark on will prosper. This seed makes you operate at the realm of God. It also makes you bigger than all barriers (John 10:34-35). This is a rhema from God. The Spirit of the word comes upon you as you wait on God in meditation on the word and in prayers. (Isaiah 40:31). When a seed is of God, it will surely germinate, succeed and soon become great (I John 5:4; Matthew 16:18-19). Keep speaking the word into your situations because it is unstoppable. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, make me enjoy your unstoppable grace.
 
“WHEN THE WORD IS ALWAYS IN YOUR MOUTH, THE RESULT WILL ALWAYS BE GREAT”

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.
