  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 ...

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”.

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 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.
