MERCY

  MERCY Romans 9:14-27 Devotional:- “So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy” (V 16) NKJV It has often been completely impossible for any human to qualify for the things of God. This is the reason why the world looks like a place of struggle for so many people. Even many Old Testament saints couldn’t make it because of their inadequacies. For Example, if anyone had not achieved their goal on earth. I would least expect a man like Moses to be one. But because he could not fully obey the Lord, he and Aaron could not get to the Promised Land. But you and I in the New Testament have come to enjoy the abundance of the mercy of God. In the scripture we read today, Jesus said, He would have mercy on us. We are the one the bible refers to as the chosen generation. We are the people of His mercy. This is an assurance that we, by His grace, will achieve our purpose on earth, for His mercy shall see us through. The trouble in the life of our paren...

SACRIFICING

Hebrews 11:17-19
Devotional:- “By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son” (V. 17)


   Faith is sacrificing. This is an act of wiliness to part with something so dear to you because God instructed you. Sacrificing is an act of obedience to honour and worship the Lord. Whatever you sacrificed to honour God becomes an instrument of worship. God will always test anyone He wants to bless with an instruction to sacrifice. It is when you obey that you are ready for promotion (Genesis 22:1-3).

Abraham was called a man of faith because he believed God for a child for twenty five years. After Isaac came, God tested him and he passed. Then God gave a promise with an oath to bless him and his generations forever (Genesis 22:16-18)

Friend, it will take a sacrifice to move to a new realm with God in any field of endeavor. The moment it is an instruction or a conviction in your heart, move with no hesitation to obey God. Some people are stagnated because they refused to obey God. There is nothing anyone have today that will be forever except when God keep flowing to you with His favour. Friend, don’t stagnate your destiny, take a prompt decision to obey the Lord. Whatever He is asking you to sacrifice cannot be compared with His coming blessings for you (John 12:24). Be willing to sacrifice anything you have in obedience and you will move forward. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to always be humbled to obey 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.
