WALL OF FIRE Zachariah 2:1-5 “For I,' says the LORD, 'will be a wall of fire all around her, and I will be the glory in her midst” (V.5) NKJV One of the troubles that brings fear into the hearts of people today is insecurity. Most people in this part of the world always feel insecure. And when you look at the situations and experiences that surround us, they often want to make us feel insecure. This causes many to live their lives in fear in the day and at night.

THE MERCIFUL
Luke 6:30-36 Devotional Verse:-“Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful” (Vs. 36)
One of the lifestyles of the kingdom of God which was among the teachings of Jesus is being merciful. This attitude gives us access to the blessings of God. To be merciful is to be considerate or compassionate on others. People may offend us but we need to deal with them with consideration. Jesus taught us that it is when we are merciful that we can obtain mercy. It is in the nature of God to give mercy (Exodus 33:4-6). So, as citizens of the kingdom of God, when we show mercy, we are taking after our father in whose image we are made. That is why you must not let things affect you negatively. You must not allow people’s negative attitude to get inside of you. Make up your mind never to hold anyone in your heart. This will help you to be able to easily forgive others. If anyone has offended you either in the office, home, church, etc, be merciful to them, so that God can also show you mercy. Peace! Prayer: Lord, help and give me a merciful heart to enjoy your mercy.
“WHEN YOU ARE MERCIFUL, YOUR LIFE WILL BE FULL OF GOD’S MERCY”.
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.
ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
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.
