SERVING WITH JOY

SERVING WITH JOY Deuteronomy 28:47-52 Devotional:- “Because you did not serve the LORD your God with joy and gladness of heart, for the abundance of everything” (V.47) NKJV A greater percentage of people do not know what stops their glory. They just suddenly discover that things just stop working out for them. In their ignorance, they accuse God and the devil for their predicament. You need to know from now that one of the things responsible is when people don’t serve with joy. People are always in haste to expect reward for their service. When it looks delayed, they begin to serve with grudges in their mind. God told the Israelites that if they did not serve God with a joyful heart, they would serve their enemy. This is actually too grievous, but men are also not always understanding. Something in us always looks so high that we don’t see what the Lord is doing, but we will always see what he has not done. This makes it difficult to serve with joy. Many are wounded by their delayed ex...

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

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.

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.
