DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

WAYS OF WISDOM

WAYS OF WISDOM 

Proverbs 3:11-18
Devotional:-“Happy is the man who finds wisdom, And the man who gains understanding;” (v.13)


    Wisdom will locate solutions to any situation for progress. Many people become discouraged when they want to search out for wisdom solution to a given situation. This is because, the more they search, the more they are confused. The reason is because God remains the giver of wisdom. That is why when wisdom is found, it produces joy. 

God is the source and the giver of wisdom (Proverbs 2:7). But most often, it is the intended receiver that is not ready to receive. That is why reading does not necessary gives wisdom. The word of God says wisdom is only given to the prudence (Proverbs 8:12). So, if any will receive wisdom, he/she must be given to cautious living. These are people who fear the Lord and will not want to disobey Him at all. 

Wisdom hates to come to the proud and arrogance people, that automatically disqualified any one (Proverbs 8:13). True wisdom is of God and having nothing to do with unrighteousness. So, evil people cannot access it. Men of perverse and corrupt mouth cannot receive wisdom. He dwells only with those who fear the Lord (Proverbs 9:10). The moment a man's heart is truly ready in humility to search, the ways of wisdom become accessible and man can enjoy the blessings of wisdom. Peace. 

Prayer:  Lord, help me to be right vessel for your wisdom.

"WHEN THE VESSEL IS READY, WISDOM IS AVAILABLE"

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
