UNMOVED FAITH Matthew 15:21-28 Devotional:- “And she said, "Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table" (V.27) NKJV Sometimes, by the principle of our response to life or obedience to God, we might not have been qualified for some things. But faith can qualify us. That is why Jesus said He has not come for the rich but that the poor may be rich. He has come to remove the barriers in the lives of people and to release them to their destiny.

FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD
LUKE 5: 12-16
DEVOTIONAL: “So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed” (Vs. 16).
Every citizen of the kingdom of God knows that prayer is not only to ask, but to fellowship with God. Fellowshipping with God means hanging around or staying with Him to rub minds with Him. It also means, to have feelings of relationship or connection with God. Abraham use to have fellowship with God. That was why he was called God’s friend (Isa. 41:8). If you want to enjoy quality fellowship with God where minds and thoughts will be freely shared, then you must not be need-oriented. Rather, you must be love and fellowship-oriented.
In today’s Scripture, the Bible says that Jesus often withdrew to a quiet place to pray because He always wanted to stay around God. When you fellowship with God, you should do it in worship and thanks giving. This is what He wants (John 4:23). If you regularly hang out with Him, you will look like Him and act like Him in the long run (Exodus 34:29, Prov. 13:20).
Sometimes, I feel very sorry for Christians who come to church once in a while, because they cannot have the best of God. The best always comes out of deep and regular fellowship with Him. Create time to regularly fellowship with God in prayers and watch your problems get resolved naturally. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, help me to enjoy having a time out with you daily.
“WATCH YOUR RESULT AND WATCH THE PERSON YOU HANG OUT WITH. IT’S THE SAME”
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.
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.
