SHARING YOUR FEELING

  SHARING YOUR FEELING Hebrews 4:11-16 Devotional:- “For we do not have an high priest who cannot sympathize with our weakness… (V. 15)” It is not always very easy for people to understand us, especially when we pass through challenges and are weak. Even those who want to understand and sympathise could get to a level and turn back. Sometimes, instead of people sympathising with us, they constitute a panel of judges and begin to point accusing fingers at us.  As part of the act of love of Jesus, the scripture we read today says, He sympathises with us in our situation. In other words, He knows exactly what you are going through, both the one you can explain and the one you cannot. He could feel exactly the way you feel. The Bible says, He has suffered as we do. Even if you are struggling with a weakness or a sin, He has also been in the flesh. He knows how painful your feelings are. He cannot reject you, and He identifies with you and still loves you. That is why He made provi...

COMMITMENT TO THE MASTER

COMMITMENT TO THE MASTER

1John 3: 3-11
Devotional:-“Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him” (v.6) NKJV


   For anyone to be a true disciple of Jesus, he/she must be committed to the master. Though, many goes to church today, but are not committed to Jesus. Many have accepted Him as Lord and saviour, yet they do not get committed to the master (Matt 7:20-21).

   Been a citizen of the kingdom of God is a relationship with Jesus. Just like no man will love to marry a woman committed to the marriage 50% or 80%, so also, a disciple of Jesus must totally be committed to Jesus. We must be committed to Jesus as our master who have no selfish interest in mind but our welfare and our growth in God.

    Friend, you can only become a true disciple of Jesus if you are committed to Jesus. To be committed to Jesus is to be committed to Him as your master and be committed to follow His instructions. That is why a disciple of Jesus must have an open mind that learn from the master. We must be committed and be consistent to the word of God and the service of the Lord. This is when we are His true disciples. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me a committed heart to your kingdom.

"ONLY THE COMMITTED CAN GROW LIKE THE MASTER"

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

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.
