  JOYFUL HOME Matthew 7:21-29 Devotional:- “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock” (V. 24) NKJV   If Anyone wants a joyful home, they must understand that the home has to be built on a solid rock. This rock is Christ (1 Corinthians 10:3-4). It will be possible to build our home on this rock if we allow the wisdom of the word of God to be the guide of our teaching, training the children and ruling our home (Proverb 22:6). Our home is likened to a building that has to be organized bit by bit to stand firm and strong in Christ. That is why you need to take good time to share God’s word with your family daily till it becomes their lifestyle. Don’t be deceived by the busy schedule of today’s world. Create time for your family. If you don’t do this, other negative things will.  Please understand that all human are product of what we hear repeatedly. To raise a right family, you must share the...

HUMILITY

HUMILITY   

Philippians 2:5-15
Devotional:-“And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross” (v.8) NKJV


   A virtue that all disciples of Jesus must possess is the virtue of humility. No one can successfully work with God without been humble. As long as you have surrendered your life to Jesus and you have accepted Him as your Lord and Savior, He has the right to direct your life. Don't forget that a landlord is a controller of his house, so also Jesus is to us. To understand the real meaning of humility, we must learn from the life of Christ. 

The scripture we read today tells us how Jesus humbled himself. Though He is one with God, yet He did not lay claim on this. It means, He was not title minded. He made Himself of no reputation, even as a servant. Most people want to be known as master but Jesus want to be known as servants. The creator allows His creature to crucify Him. This was too much. 

The word of God says, it is enough for servant to be like the master (Matthew 10:25). Humility is willingness to drop your own plan and obey the instructions of the master. Jesus obeyed God even on the cross. So, we should always obey God, no matter what. Then we can be called true disciple of Christ and we can enjoy the full blessing of His grace. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace of humility.

“THE HUMBLE YOU ARE, THE GREATER YOU ARE TO GOD”

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.

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.
