BEING HELP

  BEING HELP Romans 12:9-20 Devotional:- “Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality” (V. 13) NIV There is hardly anyone in the world who does not need help, except that they are not making any move to make something happen. So help is a need of people who are looking forward, people who have vision or people who are pursuing a life goal. If you consider yourself in need of help, then you are just one of the people on the path of success. This help could vary from the need for the right people’s assistance, counselling, or money and material. We need to understand with clarity that at any period in time, we will surely reap what we have sown (Galatians 6:7). And so we must keep sowing help into the life of others to reap help. The bible says, “Share with people who are in need“ Let us be careful not to be too need-conscious that you don’t remember to do good to others. There are people you are far better off. There are people around us who look at us as priv...

IT’S IN THE HEART

IT’S IN THE HEART           

Matthew 5:27-30
Devotional Verse:- “But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart” (Vs. 28).
 
     The center of all that a man does is in the heart. Jesus said that while a good man brings forth good things out of the good treasure of his heart, a bad man does the opposite (Matthew 12:35). It is important for us to know that all that is going on in our lives, that is, in our current state, are all products of the state of our hearts (Prov. 23:7). That is why everyone should work to improve the state of their hearts by studying edifying books.
     Jesus said that fornication is not only in the act but in the heart. Adulterous people always first have to desire the act in their heart. What transfers these things to the hearts of people is looking and meditating which is done with the eyes and the heart. For this reason, every child of God must learn to work on both their hearts and discipline their five senses.
 
    The key to taming your heart is to mind what you look at. It is also to mind where your five senses take you. The key word here is ‘self-discipline’. Apostle Paul said he disciplined himself so as not to be a cast away (1 Cor. 9:27). You need to ask for the grace to do these in prayers and you will be an overcomer over all the tricks of the devil. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, give me victory over the temptation of wrong looking. 
 
“IF YOU CAN’T STOP THE LOOK, YOU CAN’T STOP THE ACT”.

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.
