  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

FELLOWSHIP WITH BELIEVERS

 FELLOWSHIP WITH BELIEVERS   

Hebrews 10: 19-25
Devotional:-“not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching” (v.25) NKJV


    It is your company that determines your growth in the Lord. This is because everyone is a product of his/her fellowship. As social being, we are all influenced by the people we relate with regularly. That is why spiritual growth demand a company with believers. 

The word of God told us not to forsake the assembly of the believers. This is how to grow as a believer. Remember the word fellowship is from the word fellow in the same ship. It is as you join regularly with godly fellow that you can grow in the Lord. 

Apart from the fact that we are influenced by our fellowship, we are also given the privilege of interaction especially in a small cell fellowship. It is in the fellowship that we relate and exercise what we have learnt practically. It is in the fellowship your strength or weaknesses will be tested. It is in the fellowship we are offended to test our maturity. It is the fellowship that proves us weak or strong. Due to the level of your commitment among your small group, this will surely make you to grow in their direction. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, help me to always be committed to your fellowship.

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 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.
