  AUTHORITY Luke 10:5-20  Devotional:- “Look, I have given you authority over all the power of the enemy, and you can walk among snakes and scorpions and crush them. Nothing will injure you” (v. 19) NLT One of the most sought after instrument in this world is authority. In the social setting of the world, when people have acquire some things of life, they then begin to go for authority. But because Jesus came from above, he made available to every believer by the reason of His love what is called true authority. Authority is the power or right to enforce obedience. In the world here people cannot enjoy absolute authority. They can only enjoy delegated authority. But do you know that we have greater authority? And we can grow in this authority to become greater and greater by the level of our faith. We can possess total authority over the enemy the moment we are in tune with God and don’t mingle with sin. These are the only things that can easily deflate the strength of our aut...

NEED FOR WISDOM.

NEED FOR WISDOM.   

Proverbs 9: 1-12
Devotional: -“If you are wise, you are wise for yourself, And if you scoff, you will bear it alone." (V. 12)


    Life without wisdom is life without meaning. So many faithful followers of Christ today are just suffering for nothing. They have prayed and fasted but lack good result and it is simply because wisdom is lacking in their lives. The biggest problem of many people is that, they don't know that they lack it. And it is the work of the devil to darken the mind of people in this world (Ephesians 4: 18). God's word gives us the task of asking wisdom from God but some don't even know what wisdom is all about (James 1: 5). 

The book of wisdom says, if you are wise, you are wise for yourself. This is because we are the one who need wisdom. So, if you look for it, it is for your gain. God is the giver of wisdom and from Him comes understanding (Ecclesiastes 2:26). If anyone does not take time to seek wisdom and get it, he/she will have himself/herself to blame. Wisdom is the fear of God. It is the fear of God to depart from evil (Job 28:28).

Without wisdom, no man can truly succeed. If you tend to correct some people, they will resist you (Proverbs 4:7-8). The evil of foolishness is the devil making man feels "They want to deceive you ooo". As we grow in life, we tend to realize many things we have done wrongly. Let us give attention to searching the wisdom of God for living. Then, we shall find the way of God to advance and succeed. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me a heart for wisdom.

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.
