SPIRIT OF WISDOM

SPIRIT OF WISDOM I Corinthians 2:6-10 Devotional:- “But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory” (V.7) NKJV      The mind of every man is created to operate wisdom even at the level of common sense. This is one of the reasons why many are poor. The reason why this is so is that most human beings do not know how to empower their mind for wisdom with the right and quality information. They rather believe that life is all about making do with everything that comes their way. Wrong information and association have made many minds dull (Proverbs 13:20).

AREAS OF A DISCIPLESHIP

AREAS OF A DISCIPLESHIP   

2 Peter 3:14-18
Devotional:-“But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen” (v.18) NKJV


   As citizens of the kingdom of God, there are areas of life that we need to grow to be true disciples of Jesus. These areas encompass different dimension of our spiritual need for a balanced Christian life. Though, we should grow in Christ in every area of our lives, but let us group these areas to about five, for easy growth structure. 
  The first area a disciple of Christ should focus on to grow like Jesus is in our character. This has to do with our behavioral habits which characterized us before God and man. The second area is the area of our capacity. This has to do with the development of our ability to use our gift and talent to help and advance the kingdom of God, yet in a godly way (1 Cor. 12:7). The third is our understanding (Ephesians 1:17-18). Our understanding of the ways of God determines how much we can get done in God. Fourth is our relationship with God and people. And fifth is our faith in God. 

Every time we are studying the word of God, these are areas we should seek to learn and know more in God. And we shall be growing up in the Lord as true followers of Christ. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to grow in all things in Christ

“GROWTH IS ONLY A GOOD GROWTH WHEN IT IS BALANCED.

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.

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.

ALTERNATIVES

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.
