A CHOSEN PEOPLE

A CHOSEN PEOPLE Deuteronomy 7:4-11 Devotional:- “…the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth…” (V.6)      The basic challenge we are facing that does not make us understand our new position in Christ is that of misunderstanding how we become a child of God. Because we do not understand what it takes, many don’t even value it. So they easily throw it off their mind. Many today are not holding on to their faith and are easily discouraged simply because they lack understanding of the richness of their choice. Some also put up some pride and some show up because they think they were qualified.

FAITHFULNESS

FAITHFULNESS   

1 Corinthians 4:1-5
Devotional:-“Moreover, it is required in stewards that one be found faithful”
 (Vs. 2) NKJV


    It is required of every disciple to be faithful. One of the most difficult attitudes for most people today is faithfulness. This is because of the temptation of greed and selfishness. When people have waited long for a prayer to be answered, it is possible to already be desperate and when this is not effectively managed it can result to unfaithfulness.

In the scripture we read today, the scripture thought us of the importance of faithfulness in stewardship. As disciples of Jesus, much is committed into our hands to be a light and a guide for other to come to the knowledge of Christ. That is why it is compulsory to be faithful. To be faithful is to be trust worthy, reliable and constant. Our situation and strong desires for solution should turn us to God and not to unfaithfulness.

If we will keep following the Lord, then we must be loyal and steadfast. The master will hand over to us grace, revelations, instructions and gifts of the spirit. We must always be faithful before God and man. Unfaithfulness could make a man lose his entire reward in life and eternity. It makes king Saul to lose his throne (1 Samuel 15:26). It makes Gahazi to lose his opportuned position (2 kings 5:26-27). It makes Judas to lose eternity with God (Luke 22:21-22). Be faithful, so that God can promote you (Luke 16:10-12). You will not lose your place in Jesus name. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to always be a faithful disciple of Christ

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.

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.

THE GRACIOUS

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.
