UNMOVED FAITH Matthew 15:21-28 Devotional:- “And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table" (V.27) NKJV Sometimes, by the principle of our response to life or obedience to God, we might not have been qualified for some things. But faith can qualify us. That is why Jesus said He has not come for the rich but that the poor may be rich. He has come to remove the barriers in the lives of people and to release them to their destiny.

PEACE MAKER
Hebrews 12:12-17 Devotional Verse:0“Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord” (Vs. 14).
One of the greatest values that flow in the heart of the citizens of the kingdom of God is peace. This is because our Savior and Redeemer Jesus Christ is the Prince of Peace (Isa. 9:6). When Jesus was physically leaving the earth, He pledged to give peace to all His children by saying, “Peace I leave with you” (John 14:27). This peace is always visible in the life of any true child of God. The Bible admonishes us to seek peace with all men by striving to be at peace with everyone around us. When we are at peace with all men, we become known as “peacemakers” (Matt. 5:9). Peacemakers create peace where there is no peace and resolve conflict. The opposite of peace is war. A peacemaker is therefore someone who by the wisdom of God labours to unite parties that are at war. As a child of God, this should be your lifestyle. So, do all in your strength to be a peace maker. Making peace helps you not to fall away from the grace of God. It also helps you to disallow the root of bitterness in your heart. As you do this, the peace of God will keep your heart and mind through Christ Jesus and your life will be full of the sweetness of God (Philip. 4:7). Peace! Prayer: Lord, make me a peacemaker in all situations.
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.
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.
