KINDNESS

  KINDNESS Hebrews 13:1-9 Devotional:- “Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels” (v.2) NKJV The season we are in is a season of strangers, and close friends will come to locate you. You will find many in need of your assistance. God’s words teach us to be of assistance to such people. Even though we live in a very dangerous and delicate world, where so many unbelievable atrocities have been committed. Yet it does not mean we should completely neglect the instruction of this part of the scripture. We only need to obey God with wisdom. We are not to turn people away sharply; we only need to learn to discern what kind of people are coming around us. We also need to be wise not to disclose or open our hidden places to strangers. But I need to let you know that God honour those who honour strangers. If you read the bible, you will discover God has a special interest in widows, orphans and strangers. So when you give attention to the...

CHOOSE GOD

Ruth 1:6-18
Devotional- “But Ruth said: Entreat me not to leave you, Or to turn back from following after you; For wherever you go, I will go;And wherever you lodge, I will lodge; Your people shall be my people, And your God, my God” (v. 16 )


       As God's kingdom Citizens we must be consecrated on to God. To be consecrated onto God is to dedicate oneself to God with a covenant. For us to be able to achieve this we must consciously choose God as our God. This must be done with understanding and with the whole of our heart. So many are aware that Jesus will soon return but not many are sure they belong to Christ (Matthew 7:21-22). 

A major step to be sure you belong to Jesus is to dedicate yourself to the Lord with a covenant. The statement we are reading from Ruth today is a covenant statement. Please be careful not to be casual with God anymore (2 Chronicles 29:10) 

To covenant yourself unto the Lord is to completely agree to live your life as a child of God in this wicked, crooked and unstable world. It is to make a conscious commitment or a vow to the Lord. It is dangerous to assume that you are okay with God when you have not covenanted yourself consciously to follow the Lord and determine to abide with it no matter what. This is when you are consecrating your life unto the Lord (Rom 12:1-2). Peace!

Prayer: Lord, I covenant my life unto you alone and to serve you alone all my life. 

“YOU CANNOT BE SURE YOU ARE COMMITTED WHEN IT IS NOT CONSCIOUSLY DONE"

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.

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.
