SPIRIT OF JOY

  SPIRIT OF JOY Galatians 5:16-26 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness” (v.22) NKJV For all men to experience an ever-flowing joy, we must first possess the spirit of joy. God is the source of joy. When He is in a man, He brings His joy along (Psalm 16:11). Since God is a Spirit, He can only be with men by dwelling in them. When the spirit of God dwells in a man, he will experience unlimited joy. One of the most neglected exercises in the church is people receiving the Holy Spirit. Most Christians look for one excuse or the other to neglect the Holy Spirit in their life. Sometimes people feel the Holy Spirit is not that necessary. Some people feel it is an old way of following the Lord. But you need to know that if you lack the Spirit of God, God’s word says that you are none of His own (Romans 8:9). Friend, it will be wisdom for you to set aside time to ask and be filled with the Spirit of Christ. When you are filled wit...

PURE IN HEART

PURE IN HEART             

Titus 1:10-16
Devotional Verse:-“To the pure all things are pure, but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience are defiled” (Vs. 15).
 
    It is important for you to know that the heart of the problem of a man is the problem of the heart. One of the ways to enjoy the kingdom of God is by having a heart that is free. That is why the word of God instructs us to guide our hearts diligently because the issues of life flow out of them (Prov. 4:23). Until a heart is pure and free, such life will be corrupt or defiled.  
    The word of God says “Blessed are the pure in heart…” (Matt. 5:8). Been pure in heart means having a heart that is put right with God and free of fear of condemnation (Romans 8:1). It is putting your heart right with God which demands that you love to do His will in all things. This is by always standing where God stands in all situations. These are the people who will always see God in all their situations. Such will easily access God (Psalm 24:4).
 
    Friend, don’t join others to live in condemnation (Romans 8:1). To some people, it is spirituality to live in condemnation but the Bible says, the just shall live by faith (Romans 1:17). Don’t be a part of those who see the devil in everything. Don’t rate the devil as though he is stronger than God. Jesus is the Almighty and He has defeated the devil on the cross (Colossians 2:14-15). Now all power belongs to Jesus. Hold on to the word of God by faith. You will always be victorious in Jesus name. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, give me a pure and free heart.
 
“THE STATE OF YOUR LIFE CANNOT BE BETTER THAN THE STATE OF YOUR HEART”.

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.

FRUITFULNESS

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

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.
