SORROW Nehemiah 8:4-12 Devotional:- “Then he said to them, “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” (v. 10) NKJV It is the target of the enemy, using every avenue to make a strong man weak. One of the weapons of the enemy to make a man weak is sorrow. This is not just a psychological feeling, it’s an affliction released or unleashed upon the life of a man from the pit of hell. No matter how strong a man is, when he allows sorrow, he is coming down. God’s word says; sorrow rotten bones (Proverbs 17:22).

HEALTH IS YOUR HERITAGE
Exodus 15:22-27
Devotional Verse:“And said, If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God, and do what is right in His sight, give hear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon you, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that heals you” (V. 26)
One of the major challenges in the life of man is sickness. These have been an instrument of the devil to afflict man since the curses in the Garden of Eden (Genesis 3:17-19). Sickness was never part of the curse but the devil took advantage of the curses to afflict the sons of men with pain and sickness.
God, in our scriptures of today gave a heritage of health. It is a heritage because it gives us license to health. The moment any one walks in this covenant, he/she becomes qualified for this heritage. God Himself becomes your healer.
The covenant is that, if you will obey the Lord your God to do all that He commands, then health automatically becomes your heritage. For the fact that something is yours does not mean that you cannot miss it. It is your responsibility to connect with it by walking in the covenant. But you can always claim it back. God said He will not put sickness on you, so if someone put it on you, then you have the right to resist and reject it back to the owner (Matthew 15:13). God says He is the one who heals you and that is a continuous tense. This means, you will not only be healed, but stay in a good state of health for the rest of your life. Stand in these covenants for the rest of your life. Any time you lie down to rest, God heals you.
It’s a new day!
Prayer: The Lord is my healer in the day and in the night in Jesus name.
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.
