  DESIGNED TO SERVE GOD Psalm 139:13-18 Devotional:- “Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand!” (V. 16 NLT)   God designed and formed you to fit into what He wants you to do to serve Him. The intended function determines the form of a building, so also your life. You are the way you are because you were made for specific ministry (Ephesians 2:10) Our scripture today simply means nothing that happens in your life is insignificant. God will never waste any ability unless He intend to use it for His glory (1 Peter 2:9) Before God will give you any assignment, He must have packaged you for it. This packaging is what we call shape (Jeremiah 1:5). Let us look at the meaning of each letter in your shape. The ‘S’ represents Spiritual gifts. These are special God-empowered abilities for serving Him, giving only to believers (1 Cor. 2:14). These gift cannot be bought because they are given by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12:11).

RIGHT COMPANY

RIGHT COMPANY

Act 4:23-31
Devotional verse: “And being let go, they went to their own companions, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them” (v. 23).


    All of us need right people around us. Someone said, count seven closest people to you, and then check their lives; you are looking at your future. The effect of right company around us is that, they influence us to do right thing and they join us to war against wrong things that are confronting us.
  In our scriptures for today, the disciples were faced with persecution, they were even flogged and threatened not to preach in the name of Jesus any more. After letting them go, the bible says, they returned to their company. The company joined faith with them as they prayed. There they received new strength to continue in the work God has given to them.

    The right company are people of the same faith with you, and you can always find encouragement among them. This is among the people you always spend time to pray together and strengthens each other in faith. That way it will be difficult for the enemy to break you down. And you will keep winning. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, surround me with right people in life.

“YOU CANNOT BE MUCH BETTER THAN THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU”

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.
