A FRIEND

  A FRIEND John 15:9-17  Devotional:- “...but l have called you friends…” (V. 15) In this generation, it is not a common thing to find true friends. This is someone who goes all out to see to your well-being. Someone who wants to identify with you in all situations. Someone who is not feeling fine until he sees you, someone who daily remembers to pray and intercede for you. It can be a terrible thing sometimes when you desire to share your mind with someone, and no one is willing to listen to you, or someone who could offer a little help. Sometimes we could be in need of a little encouragement, but no one to really do it. The people who are supposed to encourage us are the ones who misunderstand us and condemn us. We need to come to the understanding that God is our friend. He is not just your Lord and God. He always wants to listen to you. He is not happy when you are not (Hebrews 4:15). He is always around you. He wants to identify with you in all situations. He is not out t...

SOURCE OF WISDOM

SOURCE OF WISDOM       

Proverbs 2:1-9
Devotional: -“For the LORD gives wisdom; From His mouth come knowledge and understanding;” (v.6)


    Until man is able to locate the source of wisdom, he will remain in his suffering. People who cannot find wisdom and understanding, eventually end up with evil wisdom (Proverbs 21:16). However, evil wisdom will always lead to punishment from God. It turns people to a liar and deceiver. 

Our scripture today says, God is the source and the giver of true wisdom. It is from His mouth knowledge and understanding comes. To get wisdom from God demands that you realize your need of it. Then, start to ask God who is the giver (James 1:5). Apart from asking in prayers, you must start to study the commandment of God (Proverbs 2:1). The word of God and the instructions of God are wisdom (Deuteronomy 4:6). You must begin to turn your ears to wisdom and give attention to understanding.

To get wisdom goes beyond seeking, you will need to humble yourself to search and to research it out. Whenever you are on a wisdom search, the Holy Spirit will always help you out. But the first qualification for it is, a thirsty heart for wisdom. Please know that wisdom is not one thing, it cut across every sphere of life. As you seek it, you will find it in Jesus name. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord give me a thirsty heart for wisdom.

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.
