HIS NAME

  HIS NAME John 14:7-14  Devotional:- “If you ask anything in My name, I will do it.” (V. 14) NKJV The key is like a magic or a major instrument that opens the door. When you have a key that opens a particular door, you do not need to bother or be worried about how to enter. But you just goes in without fear. Such is the game of life for the successful. When you have the key to the door, you don’t struggle. When Jesus came to the world, having known the importance of the key, he promised the disciples that they would have the keys that open the Kingdom of heaven (Matthew l6:19). One of the keys is His name. The father gave him this name. He purchased the name by His obedience to the father and Jesus gave the name to us (Philippians 2:8-11). This name is a key that was released to us from heaven (John 16:23). This name has become a purchasing power in heaven and on earth. It is more highly loaded than any credit card. Jesus said, whatever you ask the Father in my name, it shall...

LIVING A JOYFUL LIFE

LIVING A JOYFUL LIFE   

John 15:9-17
Devotional Verse:- "These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full” (Vs. 11)

    It's amazing to know that Jesus choose us to love us (John 15:16). He selected us when we were not even aware. He sacrificed Himself on the cross and brought us unto Himself by redeeming us with His blood (Revelation 5:9). What a great love!
 
    In our Scripture for today, we see that Jesus gave us the secret of a joyful life. A joyful life comes when we abide in His love. How do we abide in His love? We do this by yielding to His instructions always (John 15:10). By doing this, Jesus said that we shall live a joyful life. When we love one another, we become the friends of Jesus (John 15:14). To be called a friend of Jesus is a rare position. Only few people were called the friends of God in the Old Testament.
 
    Friend, we have an open cheque to enter a life of joy. Let us yield to His love so that we might live a life of joy in this sorrowful world. As friends of Jesus, we will have access to all His blessings. Jesus said that He and His father will dwell in us. What a great opportunity! Give Jesus a chance to show you His love and you will live a great life forever. It's a new day!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to choose to obey you in all situations.
 
“FRIENDLINESS WITH GOD PRODUCES A LIFE FULL OF JOY”

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.
