  HOW REAL SERVANTS ACT Mark 10:35-45 Devotional:- “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (V. 43).   The world defines greatness in terms of power, possessions, prestige and position but God determined your greatness by how many people you serve. This is quite contrary to the world view. Jesus called Himself servant and to be like Him is to be a servant. That is why it is so important to have a servant’s heart. God often test our heart by asking us to serve even outside our shape or area of interest. Your priority area of service should be in your area of shape, but God could demand for your service wherever needed. Looking at how a servant act is important because one could serve in a church for years and not be a real servant. Real servants make themselves available to serve. If you only serve when it is convenient, then you are not a good servant (2 Timothy 2:4). Real servants pay attention to needs, always lo...

UNDERSTANDING   

Ephesians 1:15-23
Devotional: -“The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,” (v.18)


    As much as knowledge is so important, it make us to know and be aware of a fact, yet it will not profit us until there is understanding. It is understanding that unfolds the way of knowledge. This is because knowledge as a revelation of a fact only show to our mind a reality of what is possible or what has been done. But it takes understanding to know how it was done. 

Apostle Paul prayed in our scripture for today that the eyes of our understanding may be enlightened. We have this great advantage as citizens of the kingdom of God that the Holy Spirit gives us quick understanding (Isaiah 11:3). So, by the help of the Holy Spirit, understanding opens to us the depth of knowledge. 

One get understanding when knowledge is processed with commitment. You process knowledge when you are asking question about the information. What does this wisdom profit me? How can I get this benefit? What price do I need to pay to get these benefits? As you ask yourself these questions, the spirit of God through your mind will supply the answers. Everyone knows what the Bible say about healing or prosperity, but your understanding of it determines your level of result in this area. Receive understanding in Jesus Name. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, help me to start walking in the way of understanding.

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 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.
