PROMOTION

  PROMOTION Psalm 113:1-8 Devotional:- “He raises the poor out of the dust, And lifts the needy out of the ash heap” (v.7) NKJV Observe a joyful man, he will keep going up, and this is because joy makes room for the presence of God (Psalm 16:11). When God is available, He makes the joyful to inherit great places of the earth. We must understand the mystery of joy as affecting our level per time on the earth. In our scripture for today, God’s word says when a man is joyful and praiseful, God will set him on high among the princes. This is because a joyful heart accommodates praises, and where God is praised, God encompasses the place with favour (Psalm 22:3). Observe a happy man or woman; everyone wants to favour him/her. So when joy is available, it will move you to praise God, and your promotion is inevitable  The reason for your current level is directly proportional to your level of joy. If you want to go up, then increase in joy and praises (Isaiah 12:3). See, getting anno...

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"

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.
