SALT AND LIGHT

SALT AND LIGHT          

Matthew 5:13-16
Devotional Verse:- "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men” (Vs. 13).

 


    Salt has the characteristics of sweetening, preserving and cleansing just like light has the nature of illuminating, revealing and dominating darkness. In His teachings, Jesus likened believers to salt and light. These are the two powerful combinations that ordained every child of God to stand out and be a blessing wherever they are.
    Like the salt, our lifestyles should bring sweetness to every relationship and community we find ourselves. This can be done if we remain in the peace and joy of God wherever we are (Philip. 4:4-5). Also, like salt preserves, we should be the sustainer of all good things around us by enduring with others and standing by faith in the word of God (Hebrews 1:3). To cleanse like salt does, we should be the cleansing agent wherever we are either in the house or office. This is by been an example of righteousness in all situation and others can emulate us for good.
 
    To illuminate as light, we are expected to bring understanding of wisdom and truth everywhere, so that people can see rightly. Through the light in us, we should prevail over darkness (John 1:5). This includes living by faith to overcome in all situations (1 John 5:4). Every one of us should take time to inculcate these characteristics into our lives so that it can become our lifestyle. In doing this, you will find the grace to reflect the glory of God (1 Peter 2:9). Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, make me a sweetening agent and a light everywhere.
 
“BE THE SALT AND LIGHT EVERYONE NEEDS!”

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.
