  RIGHTEOUSNESS 2 Corinthians 5:14-21  Devotional:- “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (V. 21) NKJV It is because of the love of God that we are called the people of God today (Romans 9:25). This has created an eternal problem for the devil. In the Old Testament, many people tried to please God, but they were not able, and this brought destruction upon them. The Bible mentioned that Jesus, when He died, went to hell to free the saints (1 Peter 3:19). These are men who had lived all their lives to obey the law, yet were not able to reach the mark of righteousness. Today, the righteousness they were not able to attain, we have effortlessly attained. This is not because we are better than they were, but because we are children born in due season. This is the righteousness referred to in the scripture as imputed righteousness (Romans 4:6-8). This righteousness is given to us through faith in the Lord Jesus Chri...

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.
