DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

GROWING IN FINANCES

GROWING IN FINANCES        

1 Thessalonians 4: 9-12
Devotional:-“that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing” (v.12) NKJV


  Just like we have to grow in the strength of the Lord, in relationship with God and people, making a good home, in managing our own businesses, growing in faith and in wisdom, so also in handling finances. A major area where the devil punishes many Christians today is in the area of money. It is the reason many are frustrated and are moving from church to church. 

   To grow in finance does not only mean to have more money alone, but to have the godly understanding towards money. The word of God says, we should not lack. The first Church was not in lack (Act 4: 34). Remember you are a member of the body of Christ. Which means you are connected to Jesus and are now one with Him. Because you are in Him, He will always flow His blessings to you. You will therefore need to grow in handling money matter so that we can be a blessing to God’s kingdom. 

There is a need for all of us to trust God to earn from multiple businesses (1 Thessalonian 4:11-12). As we wait on the Lord, He will give us vision for businesses (Isaiah 40:31). We must grow in discipline to save a determined percentage of all our earnings. We must save ahead for any project we desire to achieve for the glory of God. We must grow the habit of spending what remain only after our savings. We must have the habit of faithfulness to God in paying our tithe, offering and kingdom project. We must make it a habit to regularly bless ministers of God and be diligent in our business. That way, you will not lack and you will keep growing. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, make me a master over money.

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
