  MADE TO GLORIFY GOD Revelation 4:1-11  Devotional:- “You are worthy, O Lord, To receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created” (V. 11) The first major purpose of your life is to bring glory to God (Isaiah 43:21). That is why it is built into your sub-conscious mind to worship. When you understand the place of worshipping God in all things, you will no longer feel insignificant. Bringing glory and pleasure to God is what we called worship. God is always happy with those who worship Him (Psalm 147:11). Please note that anything you do to bring glory, honour or pleasure to God is an act of worship. We are wired by God to worship. If you don’t worship God, you will worship yourself. We often see some things as worship and others as none. We think we go to worship service but worship is more than just been in the church. It is a life style. Worship is more than music or a particular style of music. To some people when ...

WAITING ON THE LORD

WAITING ON THE LORD

Isaiah 40:25-31
Devotional:- “But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint”  V 31


     A life style of waiting on the Lord, is a life style of the mature people in the Lord. It can only become your life style if you choose to live by waiting on Him in all situation. It is only those who cultivate the lifestyle of waiting on the Lord by choice that can enjoy regular divine direction. This is not a choice for people who feel following God is a burden. 

In the Scripture we read today, the Bible talks about how God give strength to His own people. Strength here talks about unstoppable ability. It is about prevailing and victorious grace. These are the people that can fulfill their dreams notwithstanding the resistance and the devices of the devil. Waiting on the Lord is not once a while thing, but a life style.

To wait on the Lord, is to always acknowledge him in every situation. (Proverbs 3:5-6). To acknowledge Him is to wait on Him for direction like a waiter waits on you for selection of food in a restaurant. You must choose to live your life by His direction (Psalms 37:23). God want to influence our decisions by the Holy Spirit in us. This is the reason the Holy Spirit dwells in us. But we must choose to always acknowledge and obey Him. Then, you will be able to walk in His ways. Peace

Prayer: Lord, help me to always wait on you.

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). 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.
