  WHEN GOD SEEMS DISTANT  Isaiah 8:11-18 Devotional:- “And I will wait on the LORD, Who hides His face from the house of Jacob; And I will hope in Him” (V.17) God is real no matter how anyone feels. Since we are made to worship God whether it is going well or not we must always give all the glory to Him. It is easy to worship God when things are going well, but situations are not always pleasant. That is why we must learn to always give God glory in all situations. The richest of worship is during pains or trails. We must learn to trust God, surrender and love God when we don’t feel his presence. In our scripture today the man of God said ‘’I will trust and place my trust in Him even when God is hidden‘’. True friendship is often tested by distance and inability to communicate. It takes close time and distant time to grow relationship. That is why to mature your relationship with God He will test you with period of seeming separation, feeling abandoned or forgotten.

ENCOURAGEMENT

Isaiah 52:1-10 
Devotional:- “Awake, awake! Put on your strength, O Zion; Put on your beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city! For the uncircumcised and the unclean shall no longer come to you” (V.1)


    It's important that all God's Kingdom citizen knows that they must not joke with the issue of encouragement in their lives. Discouragement could frustrate anyone to death. Discouragement will make many turn to the way of the devil and miss their eternity with God. That is why we must not joke with the issue of encouragement. There is no one that cannot be discouraged but encouragement is bouncing back to courage. Discouragement is inability to draw from the energy of the spirit to drive into achievement of life.

Encouragement is picking up courage again after been discouraged. Without courage, human being will be equal to a vegetable, not able to achieve anything in life. No matter how skillful or strong anyone is, discouragement can beat him/her hands down. 

To be encouraged is to bounce back to courage. This is when we find the energy to move rising in us again. God is bringing you back to courage from now. He is renewing your strength (Isaiah 40:31). You have been humbled enough. The time has come for you to arise from slumbering (Isaiah 52:1). Your God is not a God of failure. He is able to help you. Return back to His word and bounce back to faith in Him (Romans 10:17). And you shall see your victory again.

PRAYER: Lord, restore your strength in my life

“ENCOURAGEMENT IS A SEED OF STRENGTH FOR YOUR DESTINY”

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.
