  PRAISE THROUGH Psalm 149:1-9 Devotional:- “Let them praise His name with the dance let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp” (V.3) The end of every year is always known for jubilation and celebration. But men often lose focus of it’s purpose to ordinary celebration and even Sometimes to their own harm. But to you this time should be celebrated with understanding. It should be that you should look back and see how much God has done for you. Do not allow the enemy to make you see what is not working but what has wonderfully worked for you in the year. How God has preserve you and your children and relation from the first to the last month. So dance not in celebration without understanding but in celebration with appreciation.  You need to know that you are not only to appreciate Him for what He has done but for what He shall do. See, the devil never wanted you to dance this time because he knows that what you start the year with will fill the year for you. So no ...

WITH GOD AND MEN  

Scripture: Luke 2: 41-52
Devotional:-“And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men” (v.52) NKJV


    Growth helps us to have effective relationship with God and men. Quality relationship is the evidence of maturity. When people can’t manage their relationship either with family, friends or staff, it is because they have not been able to develop maturity in factors of relationship. So, God expect us to grow in relationship.

 We read about the testimonies of Jesus in our scripture today of how He was having favor with God and men. The favor He had with God and man was a product of His quality relationship with them. That is why each of us must also grow in our relationship. 

To grow in relationship with God, is to create time to consistently be with Him, communicating with God in praises and worship, studying His word and asking in prayers. In this, we enjoy grace to obey Him and please Him for our favor (Joshua 1:8). To grow in relationship with people, we must humble ourselves to relate (Proverbs 18:24). We must understand different nature of people. We must learn to endure and tolerate with people. This is when we can grow maturely in relationship. By this, we will be able to walk in favor. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, teach me to relate well in life.

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.
