MEDITATION Psalm 1:1-6 Devotional:- “But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night..” (v.2) NKJV God’s word describes someone blessed because he/she meditates on the word of God, day and night. How can this be? The word of God is the source of inspiration that strengthens us to perform (John 1:1-3). The Bible told us that God is a spirit; therefore, meditating on the word of God is drawing on the strength of the spirit (John 6:63).

MOURNING FOR COMFORT
Isaiah 61:1-11 Devotional Verse:- “To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified” (Vs. 3).
Mourning as it applies to the teachings of Jesus in Matthew 5:4, is a feeling of being inadequate in spirit. Anyone ‘mourning’ feels that he has missed a virtue in God that must be regained. Such a person feels that he is missing something of great value. However, God is always out to extend comfort. In today’s Scripture, we can see the prophesy that was given about the ministry of Jesus and the assignment He had to carry out in the world. Jesus declared this manifestation in Luke 4:18-19. He came to comfort us and take away our mourning. Mourning in Zion applies to anyone facing a tough time but still remaining in Christ. You must remain in Christ no matter what you are going through. This is because it will lead to your comfort in the long run. This is one of the factors of God’s blessings that make one end in joy and comfort if one remains in Christ. Keep your feet in Christ and you shall be comforted beyond your imagination this month. Peace! Prayer: Lord, comfort me in your mercy this year in Jesus’ name.
“COMFORT IS ALWAYS WAITING AHEAD OF A FAITHFUL BELIEVER”
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 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.
YOU HAVE TO FIGHT Deuteronomy 20:1-4 Devotional:- “When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt” (V. 4) NKJV God’s children must come to realize that our victory has been purchased by by the blood of Jesus, but we have to fight to establish it in our lives. If you have to face the devil, it will be impossible to defeat him. he was in a greater glory before than you are now. He has been in a battle game before the creation of man (Revelation 12:7-8). He knows far more than we do.
