  ASK Matthew 7:7-12  Devotional:- “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!” (V.11) NKJV For us to be able to enjoy the love of God as believers, we must begin to ask God for our needs. It is the principle of God that you will only have what you ask (Matthew 7:7). If you don’t speak out to ask, you may not be given. This was the problem of the senior brother of the prodigal son (Luke 15:29-32). Everything is for Him, but he had never asked for any. But the younger brother knew how to ask You must also learn how to ask. This is because you will only enjoy what you asked for. We therefore need to learn how to ask. The word ‘ask’ is not the same as beg or loan. The word asks suggests confidence and courage. It means to demand for what you are due for. It means to ask for your rights and your entitlements in God (Galatians 3:13-14). The bible is a book of covenant ...

WISE AGREEMENT

WISE AGREEMENT

Matthew 5:25-26
Devotional Verse:-“Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are on the way with him, lest your adversary deliver you to the judge, the judge hand you over to the officer, and you be thrown into prison” (Vs. 25)

 


    God’s word advises us to be wiser than the enemy especially when we are dealing with an unbeliever. An unbeliever can be bent on doing evil or carrying out revenge. When they demonstrate what they are, we must be willing to demonstrate the wisdom of God because we are children of God.
 
    In our scripture, Jesus says, if anyone takes you up on a matter because he feels that you have offended him, there is no need arguing. If you are truly guilty and asked to pay back, do not hesitate. If you feel you are not guilty, then seek counsel. Be what you are in God and they are just what they are in their father (John 8:44). Jesus is not asking us to give bribes but He is saying that instead of going to court with them, we should agree with them by paying them whatever they are due. This is better than going with them to court where most of the judges are unbelievers. The Bible condemns the act of believers going to the court with another believer (1 Corinthians 6:1-8). 
 
    This does not mean that we should let people cheat us but when they do, we should learn to “let go and let God” (1 Corinthians 6:7). As you do, God will fight for you in such matter and you will keep rising in Jesus name. Peace!
 
Prayers: I will not be an object of intimidation and ridicule in Jesus name.

“WISDOM IS PROFITABLE TO DIRECT”.

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.
