  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

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. 

"ONLY THE RESEARCHERS CAN FIND WISDOM"

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.
