BEAUTY OF LOVE

  BEAUTY OF LOVE Psalms 133:1-3  Devotional:- “How wonderful it is, how pleasant, when bro thers live in harmony!” (v. 1) TLB Some people in society today have made up their minds never to love anyone again. This is a product of their experience of disappointment and frustration with men. But no matter our experience with people, we cannot give up love except that we give up living. Though some live without loving, they can’t know the best of life. The scripture we read today expresses to us the beauty of unity and love. It is expressed as good and pleasant. There is nothing to compare with the beauty of love. The bible describes love as precious oil, and this is because love is the oil that lubricates our mind and body. Where there is love, there will be health, and men will be polite. It is the ointment that makes the wounds of life bearable. Love is the cord of unity, and in unity men can achieve anything (Genesis 11:6) NIV. It is the strength of every relationship. No rela...

HUNGRY FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS

HUNGRY FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS           

Luke 1:48-55
Devotional Verse: -“He has filled the hungry with good things, And the rich He has sent away empty” (Vs. 53).

 

    It is the nature of the Lord to satisfy those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. When anyone is thirsty for God, he/she will certainly find Him. The Lord says that when we seek Him, we shall find Him (Deuteronomy 4:29). This attitude of being hungry for God always qualifies us for His blessings.
 
    In the Scripture we read today, Mary the mother of Jesus who was filled with the Holy Spirit spoke by the spirit. She testified by the Holy Spirit that God had filled her hunger with good things. For us to find the best of God in this kingdom, you and I have to be thirsty for God. To be thirsty for God is to long for His presence and be in His will.
 
    You live in righteousness by standing right with God. By doing the will of God with passion, Jesus said that there will be a filling (Matt. 5:6). As we seek the kingdom of God first and its righteousness, all other blessings which we desire shall be added to our lives (Matthew 6:33). We hunger for righteousness by acknowledging His will and obeying Him in everything (Prov. 3:5-6). When we do this, we will live a life of wonders on earth. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to be hungry for righteousness 
 
“IT IS WHAT YOU ARE THIRSTY FOR THAT WILL FILL YOUR LIFE”

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.
