WAITING ON THE LORD

WAITING ON THE LORD 2 Samuel 5:1-10 Devotional:- “David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years” (v.4) NKJV One of the good virtues of God we must always appreciate is His faithfulness. God is not a man that will lie; whatever He has said in His word, He is able to do and He shall do. You can always plug yourself into His promises as much as you work in His covenants. I always tell people never to think God’s word is written only to some specific persons we hear or read about in the Bible. The word of God is the standard practice and programme of God. They were only privileged to be the ones to receive the word at their time, but God is still the same, and so is His word. In claiming the word of God, you must learn to be able to patiently wait. People who will retain their joy must add this virtue to their life (Hebrews 6:12). Our scripture today told us of the installation of David as king, but that was a promise he received from God when he was about 1...

THE BLESSING

THE BLESSING        

Gen 39:1-6
Devotional Verse:- “The Lord was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian” (Vs. 2)
NKJV

 


    Very many people often think that the blessing of the Lord is all about material things. This is one of the reasons many are not grateful and are not happy in life. Riches are just one of the manifestation of the blessings of the Lord (Prov. 10:22). The blessings of the Lord are the entirety of the goodness of the Lord and this is made manifest by the presence of the Lord with a man. 
    We saw in the scripture that Joseph was prosperous, though he was a slave in the house of his master in the land of Egypt. The Bible says people around Joseph noticed that the Lord was with him. They also observed that this was the secret of his blessing (Genesis 39:3). That is why you as a child of God should know that you are blessed because the God who owns all things is with you (Ephesians 1:3).
 
    All you need to do to activate this blessing is to humble yourself, fear the Lord, always ask for His leading in all you do and obey His instructions (Proverbs 3:5-6, Psalm 25:9-14). Always obey the Lord as He instructs you in taking steps of faith in pursuit of your businesses (John 2:5). Be obedience to Him in giving and this will open for you the door of divine ideas (Isaiah 48:17). You will have divine protections on all your businesses and investments (Malachi 3:10-12). Remember, Jesus has taken away curses and poverty from your life and you are operating under the covenant of blessing (Galatians 3:13-14). Always claim your portion in His blessing. This will help you to be a partaker of the fullness of God’s blessings which will ensure your greatness on earth. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to build the right attitude for your blessings.

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.

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.

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.
