GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

SERVING THE LORD

SERVING THE LORD         

Joshua 24:8-21
Devotional:-“And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." v15


    Serving the Lord or not serving the Lord is your choice. That is why you shall be justified or condemned by your choices. Many Christians don’t serve in the house of God. They have one reason or the other why? Probably, they see the church they attend not good enough to merit their involvement. Why don’t you volunteer to serve to effect a change? Probably they see the pastor not good enough, but why not begin to intercede that God will change him or her for good?

In our Scripture today, Joshua told the children of Israel to choose who they will serve. He only declared a bold statement before them all that, he and his family will serve the Lord. It is important you know that every man is serving something. If a man is not serving the Lord, then, he is serving the devil indirectly. Choose who you will serve. 

Please know that you are saved to serve (Ephesians 2:10). If you are serving anywhere, please serve the Lord with joy, so that you will not serve the devil (Deuteronomy 28:47-48). Do you know that Jesus is coming for His servants and not lookers in the church (John 17:26)? Service is a sign of commitment to the Lord. God is only going to honour those that serves him (John 12:26). There are special blessings for those who serve the Lord (Exodus 23:25-26). Whatever is reasons you don’t serve God, is wrong. Pray and be lead to serve Him and you will stop serving troubles. Peace 

Prayer: Lord, make me your servant forever 

“A MAN WHO IS NOT SERVING GOD, WILL BE USELESS TO HIMSELF”

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.
