  SUBMIT TO HIM John 14:12-24  “Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (V. 23) NKJV   Sometimes on the platform of love, there is nothing men cannot offer to one another. If you truly love a man you will not want to reject or disobey him. You will want to do as much as it is in your capacity. You will not want to turn him down. Can you imagine how strictly you want to keep to an appointment with a loved one? If we have attached so much importance to responding to our lover, how much more God. If you truly love God it will be natural for you to submit to His will. You will not need to argue or ask too many questions. It will be a pleasure submitting to His will. Jesus said in the scripture we read today, if anyone loves me he will keep my words. In other word he will submit or obey my word. Then the reward here is that the father will also love such one i...

HEART TO HEART

1 SAMUEL 1:12-18
DEVOTIONAL:- “But Hannah answered and said, “No, my lord, I am a woman of sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor intoxicating drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD” (Vs. 15)


    It is important for us to understand that God hears the voice of our hearts more than the voice of our mouths. When some people pray, they just make noise. God told Samuel that He looked at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7). So, as we pray, we must let our prayers come from our hearts and not just from our lips (Matt. 15:8). This is because God listens to our hearts.
    To pray from the heart is to be sincere and truthful in our prayers. It is to pray with focus and determination as we seek the Lord (Jeremiah 29:13). God want us to seek Him with our hearts (Jeremiah 29:11). 

    When you pray, please always pray from the heart. This will ensure that your heart is sincerely communicating with God. This makes your prayers to be full of power before God (James 5:16 Ampl). Hannah did this and God heard her prayers. You are next in line to receive an answer from God. Arise, pour out your heart to the Lord and your prayers will receive attention from heaven. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to always pray from the heart.

“A TRUE PRAYER CAN ONLY BE HEART TO HEART”.

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.
