FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD

  FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD Romans 5:1-11 Devotional:- “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life” (V. 10)  As a kingdom citizen please known that God wants to be your best friend. This is because intimacy is part of your act of worship. It is true that God is our maker and redeemer yet he wants to be our friend. Remember we were made to live continually in God’s presence but it is sin that makes us loose that (Gen 3, Roman 3:23)  In our scripture for today we saw that it was grace through the sacrifice of the cross that gives us access to friendship with God (2 Corinthians 5:18). Our friendship with God does not mean casual acquaintance but close and trusted relationships just like the best man in a wedding. In the palace the servant must keep their distance from the king but there are some people in circle of intimate and trusted friends with the king. They enjoy free an...

ACTION    

Isaiah 60: 1-7
Devotional:-“Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you” (v. 1)


    Wisdom is wise action. No action, no wisdom. Talking is not equal to wisdom. Until there is a good result produced by our actions then, it is not yet wisdom. This is because wisdom is identified by its good result (Matthew 11:19). A major step that separates failure from success is action. Action does not mean automatic success but continuous wise action does. 

One thing that the devil doesn’t want the children of God to do today is wise action. So, he does all in his power to discourage people from acting on their dreams, ideas or desired goals. He knows that the moment there are continuous wise actions, he cannot stop achievements. That is why you and I must not allow discouragement of any kind to stop us. No matter how good a plan or an idea is, it is action that will make it a reality. Observe that miracle follow those who act and not those who sleep at home (Mark 16:17).

Friend, if the devil can get you sleeping, eating and playing, he has really gotten you. That will end a man up in poverty and failure (Proverbs 3:6-11). Do you have a song to sing then go on and sing it. Do you have a building drawing in your mind, then act fast. Do you have a vision or an idea, then pick a paper, put up a line of action and step out. Delay is dangerous. Publishing this book for me is an action. Stop waiting for a perfect weather, tomorrow might be late. Receive direction and act. The book of act of the Apostles is full of actions and not just plans of the apostles. Even in little strength, keep acting. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, I receive strength to arise.

"NO MATTER HOW GOOD A PLAN IS, IT IS ACTION THAT GIVES IT SUCCESS"

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.
