  DON’T BLAME GOD James 1:12-20 Devotional:- “And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, "God is tempting me." God is never tempted to do wrong, and he never tempts anyone else” (V. 13) NLT Today, there is so much confusion the enemy places in the heart of men to make them feel that God hate them. So, when people are under the pressure of the flesh to sin, they say “God is tempting me”. When people are weak, they are going to face temptation through their flesh. It wil be wrong to say God is tempting you with sickness or troubles. Yes, God knows about it but He only allows it when we have been warned repeatedly and we refuse to change. He disciplines, but it is necessary for us to know that God is not the author of evil, that is the work of the devil (Hebrews 12:6; Matthew 4:24).  There is a difference between a test and temptation. To test means to examine or observe if someone is capable of doing something. To tempt means to entice or lure someone into doing some...

FEAR

I John 4:17-19
Devotional Verse:-“There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love” (V. 18).


    For the devil to achieve his goals of afflicting humanity with sicknesses of all kind, he uses some virtue that we need to wisely expose. (Psalm 89:22). One of such attitudes he uses to trick man into sickness is the attitude of fear. The devil has successfully packaged himself in such a way that man will think it is normal. The word of God we read today says, fear has torment. The torment of fear is all kind of sicknesses and pain. Job said what he is greatly afraid of has come upon him (Job 3:25).

    Friend, faith is the opposite of fear and just like faith move the power of God to action, so also fear move the power of devil to action. (Hebrew 11:6). Fear is produced in man just as faith is produced. Faith comes by information, so also fear (Romans 10:17). Many lives have been cheaply terminated by wrong information they received.

    Friend, be careful of what you are hearing, it will determine how far you can go in life(Mark 4:24). Don’t stay in any place they are giving poisonous information. If you are to do medical test, it is to let you know the state of your health. If result is negative, reject it for the devil immediately. Treat yourself but don’t be victim of fear. You are a child of faith for victory in Jesus name (1 John 5:4). Peace!

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from the spirit of fear.

“THE CURE FOR FEAR IS FAITH”

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.
