STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

BEWARE OF SCIENCE
1Timothy 6:11-21
Devotional verse: “O Timothy! Guard what was committed to your trust, avoiding the profane and idle babblings, and contradictions of what is falsely called knowledge” (v. 20)
God is the author of all forms of wisdom, including Science. Science is using our natural discovery of nature to solve human problem. God told Adam, have dominion over all things and subdue them (Genesis 1:28). In other word, use them for your advantage. Because of this grace given to man, many have thought that there is no need for God any more. Thinking all solution can come from nature through science.
Actually, from the beginning of the fall of Adam, the devil often wants to make man feel there is no need for God in our lives. (Romans 1:28). That is why you cannot put your total trust in science but in God. (Psalm 125:1).
The medical science has been doing very well. I like to say, it is an aspect of care that can bring a cure, yet it has its own limitation without God (Pro. 21:30). Science is a product of human discoveries that changes from time to time. Only God’s words abide forever. Today they will say something is good and tomorrow they will say it’s bad. Even if you are using drug for a cure, please, trust God to work through the drug. The drug will only work when God works through it. Remember, God is your healer and that is why all glory must be given to Him. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, help me to always believe you for my healing.
“TRUST IS MORE VALUABLE WHEN IT IS ON A SURE WORD”.
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 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.
