  MY SALVATION Habakkuk 3:9-19 Devotional:- “Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation” (V. 18). NKJV In the scripture today, Habakkuk made bold to say that even though the works of his hands are not prospering, even if his Labour fails, even if there is no food to eat, and his pocket is empty, yet he will rejoice in the Lord. What is the secret of Habakkuk? I will joy in the God of my salvation..., the Lord is my strength” A man who has experienced the salvation of the Lord can trust God for anything. If God could give his only son for our salvation. There is nothing else that he cannot offer freely to us  (Romans 8:32). And His salvation is our strength.  In salvation is great joy, irrespective of what is happening around you. To be saved is to allow Jesus to dwell in our heart (Revelation 3:20). When you allow Him to dwell in your heart, His joy will be established in you. You will always remember His saving grace gives you victory over all ...

RESIST THE DEVIL

1 Peter 5:5-11
Devotional verse: “Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world” (v. 9).


    A major responsibility you have towards the devil is to resist him. You have nothing to do together with him than to cast him out. Whenever you sense his activities, the Bible didn’t tell you to fear him or beg or appease him but resist him (James 4:7).
    Any other thing you are doin with the devil will put you in further trouble. To resist is not the same as chasing. It is actually to command, throw off, or stand against, disallow, give no room or stop the devil. This is possible because, Christ has given us authority over him (Like 10:19), Christ defeated him on the Cross, Christ disarmed him (Colossians 2:15), Christ took all the authority Adam and Eve gave him over man and give it to us. Now we are sited far above him (Ephesians 2:6), we are no longer class mate by the great I AM in us. (1 John 4:4).
    Stop getting scared of him, the devil is a tooth–less animal (Colossians 2:15). Don’t be intimidated by the big title in his kingdom (principalities and powers, witches and wizards etc). Their surname is devil who is under your feet (Romans 15:20). Our scriptures today instruct us to resist him always. This you should do in speaking the word of God in prayers by faith. (Luke 4:4). Peace”!

Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to resist the enemy always.

“WHAT YOU CANNOT RESIST YOU CANNOT CONQUER”

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.

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.
