  YOU ARE A MISSIONARY John 17:6-19 Devotional:- “As You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. (V. 18 NLT) God is working all over the world and He has made you to be part of His work. It is the assignment of God for all Christians that is called Mission (2 Corinthians 5:20) Fulfilling your mission on earth is the fifth purpose of your life. Mission means been sent and every Christians is sent by the Lord (John 20:21). When we are saved, we become members of God’s family and the mission of Jesus becomes our mission.  Your mission is important and it is a continuation of the mission of Jesus. So to ignore it will be a sin (Matthew 28:19-20). It is important because it's a wonderful privilege (2 Corinthians 5:18). It is important because telling others about eternal life is the greatest thing you can do for them. That is why it's more important than any other job, achievements of goals you will ever reach in your lifetime. This is because you are connecti...

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE     

1Samuel 30: 1-10
Devotional:-“Then David and the people who were with him lifted up their voices and wept, until they had no more power to weep” (v. 4) NKJV


    Every man or woman who want to progress in life must take it upon themselves to grow emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence is our ability to manage our emotion not to break down or even react to people negatively because of a particular event or experience. 

We saw today how David broke down in tears as a leader with all his people. When people are emotionally weak, you need to allow them to weep and exhaust themselves like David did. There was a time that Jesus also wept (John 11:35). It is not outrightly wrong to weep when you can’t help the situation, but there is a need to grow above such emotional weakness.

To grow emotionally, is to be sincere with your weakness and strength. Stop pretending that you are mister know it all. You must not over judge yourself in any issue. You are not Mr. or Mrs. mistakes. There is no one who cannot make mistakes. Always exercise self-control in any occasion. Learn to be self-motivated in any situation. Don’t wait for anyone to encourage you before you encourage yourself and others around you (1 Samuel 30:6). Make a decision to be free to relate without fear. That way you will discover that you are not the only weak one. Everyone is growing, don’t over celebrate any problem or progress. Pray for the grace to forgive instantly and you will be strong emotionally. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, make me a growing person.

"WHEN YOU REFUSE TO BREAKDOWN, YOU WILL ALWAYS BUILD-UP"

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.
