  TIME OF CELEBRATION  2 Samuel 6:11-23 Devotional:- “Then David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was wearing a linen ephod” (V. 14) NKJV As much as this season is tagged with much celebration, the enemy often tries to see how he could poison the joy of many people to remove them from the list of people who will celebrate. It will be wisdom for you to know that happiness and sorrow are a choice. I will advise you to choose to rejoice in hope and leave sorrow for the enemy (Romans 5:22). In the scripture we read today, David and all the people were in a mood of celebration because of the advent of the ark of the Lord. But a lady could not see what was worth celebrating, and she took offence at David’s elegant celebration. And she remains barren till her death. Friend, if the coming of the ark of the Lord is sufficient to lose celebration, how much more the coming of Christ, the Son of God. Don’t let the devil push you to sorrow corner in a time like this. It...

THE UNJUST STEWARD

THE UNJUST STEWARD             

Luke 16:1-9
Devotional Verse:- “And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, that when you fail, they may receive you into an everlasting home.”  (Vs. 9)

    The parable in our Scripture for today teaches us so many lessons. It teaches us that we are stewards. A steward is a manager in charge of a business or an assignment. This teaches us that whatever we have comes from the Lord (Psalm 24:1, John 3:27). For this reason, we must use them consciously in the service of the master. 
 
    We also learn that we have to render our services to the Lord with the wisdom of God. In other words, we must be strategic, innovative and dynamic. The Holy Spirit is in us to help us. The servant in this parable of Jesus was wise in unfaithfulness towards his master, but we are called to be faithful (1 Corinthians 4:2).
 
    Jesus taught us to treat people well when it is well with us. This is because it is what we sow, that we will reap. When you have the privilege, use it to help as many people as you can especially in the family of God; the Church. The people you help today will be the ones to help you tomorrow. There is no man that cannot be in need at any time. But God will remember our seeds and help us. You have a secured future in Christ. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the heart to be a blessing
 
“IN MOST CASES, IT IS THE PEOPLE YOU”VE TOUCHED THAT GOD WILL USE TO TOUCH YOU”

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.

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.
