  CONTENTMENT I Timothy 6:3-12 Devotional:- “Now godliness with contentment is great gain.” (V.6) 6 NKJV For anyone to sustain the spirit of joy, he must learn to exercise godliness with contentment. One major reason why people quickly lose their joy is their fear of lack. This is a feeling of losing what they have. This is a fear of unknown or undefined unexpected problems that may occur. In the scripture we read today, God’s word explains to us about something that is of great gain to us. The word contentment means to be calm and at peace in every situation. It means not to worry but expect the best of every challenge. The godliness that the Bible talks about here is to remain in your godly virtues, no matter what is happening. This will make you find it easy to believe God for supply, and it shall be so. And in the midst of this, you will have peace and joy. Friend, if you still have a problem with letting money go, thinking of how you would get it back or getting worried about ...

VENGEANCE

VENGEANCE             

Mathew 5:38-42
Devotional Verse:-"You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.'”  (Vs. 38).

    In the ungodly world, life is tit for tat when people’s cars are mistakenly bashed. There must be a payback for any property mistakenly hit or destroyed. It is actually not out of hand to make a man pay for what he has carelessly handled as a way of discipline for him, but we must not always insist on this so as not to offend God (Romans 12:17).
    In our Scripture for today, Jesus teaches us to be willing to give out things. This teaching is about being liberal and willing to let go by letting God have His way because we must not take vengeance (Romans 12:19). We all could have been involved in this before but we need to learn from the word of God to always let go. We must not be so attached to things that we start returning a slap for a slap, or an eye for an eye (Matthew 5:40).
 
    Sometimes, we must accept that whatever is done is done. It becomes a test for us before God who is our provider. Don’t let Him stop your provision. Remember that, vengeance should be left for God (Deuteronomy 32:35).  Let Him fight for you. Prevent evil and don’t wait for them to happen before you start to think of revenge. Don’t lose your life because of properties but teach people that they must not demonstrate the bitterness of vengeance. Teach them to show love so that God will reward them. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, deliver me from the spirit of vengeance 
 
“TEACH PEOPLE LESSONS BUT ONLY IN LOVE”

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.
