  WORSHIP John 4:10-26 Devotional:- “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him” (v.23) NKJV Many of us have not come to the level of understanding that God is more interested in building relationship with us than in meeting our needs. Actually, He desires to meet our needs, but fundamentally, He wants a relationship first. That is why most people don’t have a constant response from God, because He has discovered that they are much more after His gifts and not after Him as God. So also when Jesus discovered that people were following Him for the sake of fish and bread, He quickly discouraged the act (John 6:25-27). One of the things that God strongly desire from human race is our worship. Not because He wants to show that He is God, but because He knows that it will help Him build a relationship with us. Observe that God called David a man after His heart. One of the reasons...

THE PREPARATION OF THE HEART

THE PREPARATION OF THE HEART

PROVERBS 16:1-7
DEVOTIONAL: “The preparations of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD” (Vs. 1).



   It is often said that proper preparation prevents poor performance. God has given the task of the preparation of the heart to man before we will expect God to give us result. This is simply our part in His divine plan (Hebrews 11:40). So, if we want to have our prayers answered, we must prepare our hearts for it. Remember, God listens to the voice of our hearts more than He listens to the voice of our mouths (1 Samuel 16:7)
    To prepare our hearts for a time of effective prayers which attract answers, we must understand what strengthens our hearts before God.  Remember, every mind has three compartments such as the intellect, the emotion and the will power. Each of these parts have their roles to play in our success. The one that is very vital for our decision to act on faith is our will power. A man with a strong will power will always make progress. One receives strength in his will power with confidence and courage, when being inspired by the word of the spirit, the word of God. When this happens, your strength becomes doubled (Job 32:8, Joshua 1:8). This is the reason God instructed Joshua to meditate on the word for his prosperity and good success. 

    Always sit down to meditate on the word of God which has been covenanted to solve your problems. When you do this, your mind will be positioned to receive the confidence you need to stand before God for any answer you desire. Your testimonies will also be inevitable. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, inspire my heart to courageously seek you for my answers (Hebrews 4:16).

“YOUR CONFIDENCE IN GOD DETERMINES YOUR RESULT”

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.

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.

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.
