MATURE CLASS

  MATURE CLASS I Corinthians 13:9-13 Devotional:- “When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things” (v.11) NLT I have observed that it is not everyone that can truly love. This is because it is a character for a person in a class. I have seen some men taking pride in beating their wives. I have heard many women proudly saying that they cannot stay under any man. And they do not feel ashamed that at their age, they couldn’t manage a home. The truth is that, if you cannot rise and manage a home, it is a sign that you cannot manage a greater thing that God would have loved to give to you (1 Timothy 3:5). When people give excuses of the reason why they cannot love, you will easily recognise their immaturity. Friend, you should feel ashamed if there is always noise of a fight coming from your apartment. And so many times, people, including the pagans, often come around to judge you and people, bashing and mocking...

NO DIVORCE

NO DIVORCE

Mark 10:1-12
Devotional Verse: -“Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate” (Vs. 9)

 

    In the original plan of God for mankind, there is no plan for divorce. This is because for many, divorce is an optional route to avoid the blessing of growing maturely in marriage. One of the purposes of marriage is to involve a man and a woman in an acceptable intimate relationship (Genesis 2:24). Sincerely, because relationships can sometimes be very demanding and challenging, anyone in it would sometimes want to opt out. That is why God made intimacy necessary for people, except in cases of fornication. 
     We all graduate from schools but we do not graduate from the school of marriage. The wedding day is the graduation day from the school of bachelorhood but there is no end in the school of marriage. This is because marriage is an intimate relationship from where we can truly learn. So, God did not make it for anyone to escape.
 
    The reason God said that He hates divorce is that some people often use it as a means to avoid facing the challenges of marriage (Malachi 2:16). Divorce freedom mentality also gives room for fornication.  So, please don’t have a plan B while in your marriage (Matthew 19:8-9). Plan to stay in your marriage for life. That is when you can be the best and also get the best out of it (Ecclesiastes 2:9). Your marriage will be peaceful in Jesus name. Peace! 
 
Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to have a successful marriage. 
“YOUR MARRIAGE SUCCESS IS YOUR CHOICE”

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.
