  MADE TO SERVE GOD 1 Corinthians 3:5-17 Devotional:- “For we are both God's workers. And you are God's field. You are God's building. (V.9 NLT) God put you on earth to make contributions and make a difference with your life. Another purpose of your life is to serve the Lord wherever you are. You are created to add to the earth and not just to take from it. This purpose of your life is called ministry or service. It is very important that you live in this consciousness, you were created to serve God (Ephesians 2:10). Wherever you are either in the school or in the office, be sure you are serving God and fulfilling your purpose.  God saved you to serve Him. Your work, business or academic is also a work and a service to the Lord (Ephesians 6:5-7). God redeemed you to do His holy work everywhere in your life. It is service that gives value to your life (2 Timothy 1:9). Ministry is not only for pastors but for all members of the body of Christ. We are not to sit and wait for h...

BEEN BETTER    

Daniel 1: 8-21
Devotional:-“And in all matters of wisdom and understanding about which the king examined them, he found them ten timesbetter than all the magicians and astrologers who were in all his realm” (v.20) NKJV


  To be better than others in life is a function of growth. It is growing better that makes a life better. We have placed so much importance on learning academically but we must be careful not to miss out in applying the knowledge for our growth. As a child of God, you need to always apply the word of God to your life to grow up and be better. 

  Daniel and his three Hebrew friends became better because they gave themselves to learning the wisdom of God by relating with God (Daniel 1:3-4). The rest of the royal seed there were only eating and drinking. That will only make the body look good. It takes growth to live in the will, the way, wisdom of the Lord to be better and stand out in this wicked world. 

Friend, stop following God religiously. Christianity is not a religion, but a way of life. It is the life of Christ. Until you start to live by the word of God, you may not be better or preferred in this world. This is because the word makes us stand out as light to the darkness of the world (Matthew 5: 14-16). For our life to be better, we need to live by the word of God and we shall be a star in the world. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to build up and be preferred in life 

"IF YOUR LIFE WILL BE BETTER, THEN RELATE MORE WITH GOD"

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.
