STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

SPEAKING HIS WORDS
EPHESIANS 6:14-20
DEVOTIONAL: “And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Vs.17)
It is important for us to know that there is a need for the release of authority through our requests in prayer. It is this authority that guarantees the angels of God executing our decrees (Matt. 16:19). This authority is given to us in the word of God and this is the strength of our prayers (Matt. 7:7, Luke 10:19).
We will be able to operate in the authority of God when we put His word in our mouth (Joshua 1:8). His word is His authority (Eccl. 8:4). Through it, He made the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1-5, John 1:1-3). So, when we speak the word in prayers, we release authority and power
In our Scripture for today, we are told that, we should take hold of the sword of the spirit which is the word of God. You need to always hold on to the promises in the word of God and speak them into your life and situations whenever you pray. The Bible tells us that, the word of God is powerful (Hebrews 4:12). It can penetrate anywhere to perform any work. You can send the word by speaking it in prayers (Psalms 107:20). The word is fire and hammer in our mouths and no devil can resist it (Jeremiah 23:29). Speak it with faith and there will always be results. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, help me to always speak your word.
“WHENEVER YOU SPEAK THE WORD OF GOD, YOU SPEAK POWER”
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.
