  SPECIAL CHILDREN Proverbs 23:15-25  Devotional:- “Do not let your heart envy sinners, But be zealous for the fear of the LORD all the day” (V.17) NKJV Today, the lives of children in most nations are becoming a great trouble. Many parents have lost control of their children. But in the midst of these hopeless situations of the future generation, yet some children allow the word of God to rule their lives, such children have the fear of God in them. These are children who keep a wise heart and who have learnt the right use of their lips. Who don’t open their lip to speak just anything but the truth and wisdom (Proverbs 23:16). These are children who don’t envy the way of sin, nor do they get themselves involved in the sinful nature of this generation. Rather, they fear the Lord, and this affects everything they do (Proverbs 23:17). Most of the youths of this day go into untimely relationships and cheating everywhere because of fear of failure and fear of tomorrow. But these p...

 CHARACTER OF CHRIST

Ephesians 4:17-24 
Devotional:-“And that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness” (v.24) NKJV


  A disciple of Christ is known basically by their character. The word of God says, it was in Antioch that believers were first called Christian (Acts 4:24) A Christian is the one who is Christ-like in behaviour and attitude. That is why each of us should carefully observe the character of Jesus and emulate Him as our Lord.

Our character development affects our personality in Christ. It also affects our identity with the behaviour of Christ, integrity and morality. To grow our character, we need to identify the character of Jesus when we are learning the word of God, also we need to realize our own character to compare with that of Jesus. 

We need to be sincere to acknowledge if we have character flaws or spiritual weaknesses. It is not as we come to the Lord that we grow to maturity, but we must start from somewhere. It is a curse to remain a baby for life. So, take up quality examination of your character to grow in Christ. Until people around you can call you true Christian, then you have not started. Every child of God must put off the old nature and put on the character of Christ. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to keep growing to be like Jesus.

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 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.
