FEAR

  FEAR 1 John 4:11-21 Devotional:- “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love” (v.18) NKJV Among the attitudes that hinder the flow of joy is the attitude of fear. Wherever there is fear, joy cannot be there. This is because peace is like a bed that joy normally sits on. Since the opposite of peace is fear. It becomes impossible to have joy with fear. This is the major problem with many, whom we refer to as great or rich. They find it difficult to have joy simply because of the fear in their heart. Sources of fear include sin, disobedience to instruction, not living within your size, shady deals and non-believing in the word of God. The truth is fear can frustrate and kill joy, but there is something that can kill fear also. Wisdom demands that we should get what destroys fear, and this is faith. Faith is standing upon the word of God, i.e., choosing to rest because God’s word promise...

JOSEPH

JOSEPH   

Genesis 41: 37-49
Devotional: -“Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Inasmuch as God has shown you all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you.” (v.39)


    Joseph was also a man who demonstrated the wisdom of God in the land of Egypt. He was able to rise from prison to the palace just by demonstrating the divine wisdom. Not because he was better, but because he has the Holy Spirit like you and me. He demonstrated his gift with the help of the Holy Spirit. Pharaoh said, can he find someone like this with the Spirit of God? (Genesis 41:38).

 He also said can we find a man as wise and discerning like Joseph? That is the gift of discernment (Gen 41:33; 1 Corinthians 12:10). Which means with the help of the Holy Spirit any child of God operating in the wisdom of God can achieve what Joseph achieved. 

That is why each of us must learn to use our mind. You must understand that life will offer a man nothing when he does not use his brain positively. Thank God for prayers that employ forces of the angels of God to work for us, but each of us should be able to discern the problem in our land and prescribe its solution. Manage businesses to grow by wisdom of self-discipline with strategic thinking. By so doing, we take our place on the earth for the glory of God. You will surely rise up in Jesus name. Peace.

Prayer: Lord, help me to take my place by the help of the Holy Spirit.

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.

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.
