  DESIGNED TO SERVE GOD Psalm 139:13-18 Devotional:- “Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand!” (V. 16 NLT)   God designed and formed you to fit into what He wants you to do to serve Him. The intended function determines the form of a building, so also your life. You are the way you are because you were made for specific ministry (Ephesians 2:10) Our scripture today simply means nothing that happens in your life is insignificant. God will never waste any ability unless He intend to use it for His glory (1 Peter 2:9) Before God will give you any assignment, He must have packaged you for it. This packaging is what we call shape (Jeremiah 1:5). Let us look at the meaning of each letter in your shape. The ‘S’ represents Spiritual gifts. These are special God-empowered abilities for serving Him, giving only to believers (1 Cor. 2:14). These gift cannot be bought because they are given by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12:11). We are to use them to benefit on...

JOY.

JOY.    

Proverbs 3: 13-18
Devotional:-“Happy is the man who finds wisdom, And the man who gains understanding;” (v.13)


    One of the results of wisdom is joy. As short as these three letter words, as valuable as they are to all men on earth. The presence of joy is the evidence of the presence of God and all good things of life (Psalm 16:11). That is why wherever joy is, affliction is not commonly found in the place. Sorrow which is the opposite of joy is what breaks down anything but joy builds a life of goodness. 

One of the virtues that produce joy is wisdom. The scripture we read today says happy is the man that found wisdom. This is because wisdom is strength to produce good result in life. So, when wisdom is found, joyful experience is inevitable. There is no one with good result that will not be joyful.

Friend, even though we are always tempted to play fast game, we should remain in the part of wisdom. This will give us result with peace of mind and joy in our heart. The Bible says, wisdom is more profitable than silver and gold. They come with the blessings of the Lord without sorrow (Proverbs 10:22) She offer long life, riches, honor and guide in the part of peace (Proverbs 3:15-17, Psalm 23:2). Some have traded their joy with foolishness, but be wise to abide in the wisdom of God and eternal joy will be your heritage. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to abide in your wisdom.

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 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.
