  NOT AN ACCIDENT Isaiah 44:1-5 Devotional:- “Thus says the LORD who made you And formed you from the womb, who will help you: 'Fear not, O Jacob My servant; And you, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen” (V. 2) In discovering the purpose of your creation, it is important that you know that you did not evolve accidentally. You are a product of the conscious plan of God. The word of God says before we were formed in our mother’s womb, He knew us. This means, before you were in the womb of your parent you were first in the womb of the mind of God (Jeremiah1:5) God prescribe every single detail about your life before you were made. You colour, skin, hair or your race. He determines your skills, your uniqueness or your natural talents (Psalm 139:15). Your parent may not have planned your birth but God did. He chose your mother and your father to form the blood group He wants for you. He makes sure that you are raised in the right community and your background. All these things were determined...

LIFE TIME        

Ephesians 4: 10-13
Devotional:-“till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ” (v.13) NKJV


    For those who love to grow, it is important you know that growth is gradual and it is a life time adventure. We will only be perfect when we get to heaven. As long as we live in this world and in the flesh, we have to keep growing to overcome. 

That is why you must not be disturbed that you still make mistakes. The Bible says, to us that God gives us the ministry gift. These are apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. These ministry gifts are offices God put people to function in, to equip the saints i.e., to raise believers to serve the Lord that the church of Jesus may keep growing. 

Then the Bible pointed us to the fact that we have to keep growing till we come to easily working together with the Holy Spirit. As the body of Christ, we become mature in the Spirit when we are able to keep working together as one. But this is not a product of a few years of learning. That is why all children of God must keep growing in the Lord. We are slow learners; we are all in the process of growing. We should not keep repeating the same mistakes of life. So, commit yourself to a life time journey with God (Gen. 17:1) Don’t graduate out of growth, else you start to go down. Don’t become too big to learn. Then you will become more and more mature in Christ. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, help me to have a life time commitment of growing in you.

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.
