SPIRIT OF UNDERSTANDING

SPIRIT OF UNDERSTANDING  Daniel 5:1-11 Devotional:- “There is a man in your kingdom in whom is the Spirit of the Holy God. And in the days of your father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, were found in him; and King Nebuchadnezzar your father-your father the king-made him chief of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers” (V. 11) NKJV      The human level of exploits in life depends largely on their level of understanding. The depth of your understanding determines the size of your light in life. Understanding is what makes people outstanding. If you can't dig deep, you can’t grow tall. It is as you can take root downward, that you can bear fruits upward. Failure is mostly a result of a lack of understanding (Hosea 4:6). People of understanding are of peaceful progress. Since they can dig deep to know the right thing in life they can keep flying.

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”

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.

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
