LOOKING UNTO HIM

  LOOKING UNTO HIM Psalms 34:1-7 Devotional:- “They looked to Him and were radiant, And their faces were not ashamed” (V. 5) NKJV To enjoy the love of God for us, we must learn to keep looking unto Him. The scripture says, they looked unto him and were not ashamed. No one trusts in Him who will be ashamed at the end. It is amazing that Joseph, whom they sold as a slave, eventually became a ruler. Because that is God’s plan for Him (Genesis 45:1-9). Amazingly, Abraham, who had no children for almost a hundred years, at last became the father of eight children before he died (Genesis 25:1-2, 9). These are proofs of God’s faithfulness. Because He also has a plan for each of us, He does not want us to be discouraged or frustrated, but rather to keep looking unto Him. This is because He has a plan for us, and it shall surely come to pass. That is why He said, "I know the plans that I have for you; they are not of evil, but good, to give you a hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11). H...

WHERE IS YOUR TREASURE

WHERE IS YOUR TREASURE

Matthew 6:19-21
Devotional Verse-“For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” (Vs. 21)

 


    It is the lifestyle of God’s kingdom citizens to always give sacrificially. In the realm of the spirit, the way to tap into God’s favour is by sacrificial giving. This is not what we should do once in a while. Whoever wants to partake in God’s blessings must give willingly and consistently. The key word here is ‘consistency’ (Psalms 126:5, Gal. 6:9-10, Eccl. 11:1-2).
 
    In our Scripture today, Jesus talked about where our giving should be focused on. Jesus said that giving should not be channeled towards the earth, but towards heaven. This becomes possible when our giving is in accordance with the Biblical instructions and directives from God. Jesus is actually teaching us to put our treasures in heaven. Our treasures are our valuables. Investment in God’s kingdom is void of inflation or corruptible factors. 
 
    You can bank on the faithfulness of God, because He will always bless you in times of need (Phil. 4:19).  It is what you keep in heaven that you will meet when you get there. That is the reason we should be wise and invest for heavenly treasures. This helps us to focus on eternity with God rather than gathering the riches of the earth which will be eventually perish. As you give sacrificially, you and your family will not lack timely provision in Jesus name. Peace! 
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to always put my treasures in you. 

“IT IS WHAT GOES UP THAT COMES DOWN”.

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.

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.
