SUCCESS AND YOUR PURPOSE

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 STRENGTH OF LIFE

THE STRENGTH OF LIFE           

Genesis 2:1-7
Devotional Verse:- “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being” (Vs. 7)


    God made man in the beginning in His own image and likeness. Since God is a Spirit, it should be clear enough for you to know that man is also a spirit being (John 4:24). If man is therefore going to gain strength, then he must trace his way back to God who is his source. 
 
    In our Scripture for today, we see that God molded man just like a clayed image. You will agree with me that without the breath of God, there is nothing the clay can do by itself. In Genesis chapter two and verse seven, God breathed into the nostril of that molded image and it came alive. That was one of the first miracle of God. 
 
    Friend, please understand that the true strength of life is when you receive the breath of God which is the Holy Spirit. When people are filled with the Holy Spirit, they become great potentials in the hand of God. Jesus told the disciples that they would only be able after they had been baptized in the Holy Ghost (Acts 1:8). It's important you set quality time aside to fellowship in the presence of God and ask for the baptism of the Holy Spirit (Acts 4:13). When you receive it, the best of you will start to manifest (Job 32:8). Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, baptize me with the Holy Spirit.
 
“IT WILL TAKE THE HOLY SPIRIT TO BE INTELLIGENT IN RIGHTEOUSNESS”

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.
