DON'T BLAME GOD

  DON’T BLAME GOD James 1:12-20 Devotional:- “And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, "God is tempting me." God is never tempted to do wrong, and he never tempts anyone else” (V. 13) NLT Today, there is so much confusion the enemy places in the heart of men to make them feel that God hate them. So, when people are under the pressure of the flesh to sin, they say “God is tempting me”. When people are weak, they are going to face temptation through their flesh. It wil be wrong to say God is tempting you with sickness or troubles. Yes, God knows about it but He only allows it when we have been warned repeatedly and we refuse to change. He disciplines, but it is necessary for us to know that God is not the author of evil, that is the work of the devil (Hebrews 12:6; Matthew 4:24).  There is a difference between a test and temptation. To test means to examine or observe if someone is capable of doing something. To tempt means to entice or lure someone into doing some...

FAITH        

Matthew 17: 14-20
Devotional:-“So Jesus said to them, "Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you” (v.20) NKJV


    Faith is the strength and energy of God to do all things. It is by faith creation came to be (Hebrews 11:3). Where there is faith, there will be achievements. It is by faith that we can experience divine healing (James 5:15). It is by faith we can overcome the devil (1 John 5:4). Faith is the major factor in walking and attaining with God (Hebrews 11:5). If faith is that important, then we must grow in faith. 

We read in the scripture today that the disciples came to Jesus having failed in been able to cast out devil. They ask Jesus the reason for their failure. Jesus replied them that, it’s due to their unbelief which is lack of faith. Please understand that faith is the energy of God released into our spirit-man by God for us to be able to carry out an assignment for His glory. 

Growing faith therefore demands that we wait on the word of God by meditation. It is as we meditate that the Holy Spirit releases the energy of the word of God into our Spirit. By this, we gain confidence and boldness to rise and manifest the grace of God for an achievement. All citizens of the kingdom of God must give themselves to growing in faith to keep their victory and success in place. And we shall keep growing. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me grace to keep increasing in faith.

"LEVELS OF MANIFESTATION IN THE SPIRIT IS BY THE LEVEL OF FAITH"

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.
