SETBACK

  SETBACK Genesis 39:10-21 Devotional:- “Then Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners were confined. And he was there in the prison” (v.20) NKJV Most people do not yet understand that what we call a setback, a lot of time is a set-up to set us to our top. Setback, as viewed by people, is demotion, but it is rather an opportunity to retreat and re-fire for greater victory. When the purpose of a thing is not known, men are bound to abuse it. Today, we read about Joseph, who was thanking God for being promoted from a slave to a house overseer. He always tried to put his best into his assignment, and by this, he always had joy. At this time, the enemy wanted to damage his testimony by the temptation of sin, but he stood his ground for God (2 Timothy 2:22). But then he faced something like a demotion to prison. This looks like an act of wickedness from God that he was trying to please, but Joseph knew that there is a price for righteo...

THE PRINCIPAL THING

THE PRINCIPAL THING  

Proverbs 4: 1-9
Devotional:-"Wisdom is the principal thing: therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding" (v.7)

=

God's ways are sure way to get result in life, but not many knows the way, that is why many so called Christians today lives in frustration. The major thing that is missing is wisdom. Most people in this part of the world allow religion to take them away from wisdom. Many can pray so well without using their mind. This is one of the greatest challenge in our Christian journey in this part of the world. 

The word of God which is the book of wisdom says that “wisdom is principal thing”. Another version says “wisdom is the wisest thing you can get”. The reason it is the wisest thing to get is because, without it many things cannot be achieved. Even when we pray, it is by wisdom that the answers will be accessed. That is why a life without wisdom will be full of confusion and stagnation. 

Friend, whatever it will cost you to get wisdom, please get it. Wisdom is not been cunning or crafty as some supposed, it is rather the operation of hindsight for insight, it is the ability to turn knowledge to practical action for practical result. Wisdom actions are sincerity in doing what is needed to make an occasion work out successfully. Without wisdom, knowledge is ineffective. Seek it with all your heart and you will find it. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me wisdom for good result in life. 

"UNTIL WISDOM COME, NO ONE WILL TRULY SUCCEED

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
