  NEVER BREAK YOU 1 Corinthians 10:6-13  Devotional:- “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it“ (V. 13) NKJV When some people go through challenges today, it looks as if the end has come. And sometimes we think, it is going to be forever. But God’s love is revealed to us even in our challenges. His help and strength are always available to us, even in our most difficult situations. He has promised never to leave us alone. He is right there with you in your challenges. And that is why you cannot be swallowed nor destroyed, even by any situation you may be facing right now. The scripture we read today says, God will not watch us fall into any pit of trouble above what we can come out from. That means, He is looking at you in that situation, He knows your shame. But He also knows that...

STRONG IN THE SPIRIT

STRONG IN THE SPIRIT   

Luke 1:67-80
Devotional:-“So the child grew and became strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his manifestation to Israel” (v.80) NKJV


  We are growing when we are gaining strength. This is when we develop the ability to handle what we are not able to handle before. As citizens of the kingdom of God, we are instructed to be strong in the Lord (Ephesians 6: 10-12). This is because there are things to be contended for and there are forces to be contended with. (Ephesians 6: 12, 1 Peter 5:8-9).

 Physical strength comes by eating and exercising. So also, is spiritual strength. God’s word says, John the Baptist was growing strong in the spirit. To be strong in the spirit, we must learn to eat the food of the spirit which is the word of God (Luke 4:4). To eat the food of this world, we chew and swallow them into our stomach for digestion, so also to eat the food of the spirit, we must chew by meditating over the word till it enters our heart and we digest it into our body.

    If anyone is weak spiritually, the devil will outsmart his life with troubles and he will be a victim (Proverbs 24:10). That is why you and I must put in our best to be strong in the spirit, so that we have the ability in the Holy Spirit to overcome all the schemes of the devil. You are winning. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me a heart for your word.

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.
