WAITING ON THE LORD

WAITING ON THE LORD 2 Samuel 5:1-10 Devotional:- “David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years” (v.4) NKJV One of the good virtues of God we must always appreciate is His faithfulness. God is not a man that will lie; whatever He has said in His word, He is able to do and He shall do. You can always plug yourself into His promises as much as you work in His covenants. I always tell people never to think God’s word is written only to some specific persons we hear or read about in the Bible. The word of God is the standard practice and programme of God. They were only privileged to be the ones to receive the word at their time, but God is still the same, and so is His word. In claiming the word of God, you must learn to be able to patiently wait. People who will retain their joy must add this virtue to their life (Hebrews 6:12). Our scripture today told us of the installation of David as king, but that was a promise he received from God when he was about 1...

ENERGY OF LIFE

ENERGY OF LIFE

Deuteronomy 8:1-10
Devotional:- “So He humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord” (V. 3)


    We all need to understand what the energy of life is. We all desire to pursue and achieve some things in life. But it is important that we realize that the car that is running around is doing that on an energy supplied. Every moving equipment does that, by depending on one source of the energy or the other.

 The energy of life always come through information (Proverbs 24:5). This is not mere information but spirited information (John 6:63). Such information transmit the spirit in it to the hearer. That is why if a man keep listening to a drunker he will soon drink (Proverbs 13:20). That is why we hear the word of God and it produces faith in us (Romans 10:17). That is why we get fired up when we hear the word of God in the house of the Lord (Psalm 84:7).

For the sake of our study let us focus on three type of information. The evil or negative information, the academic information and the godly information. You will discover that not many academic information produces tangible results but the godly and evil ones are evidential. For us as children of God the word of God is the source of our energy. It build faith and courage in us (Proverbs 24:5, Romans 10:17). It fuel us with wisdom and understanding (Psalm 119:97-100). That is why you cannot do without the word of God for your strength in life. And you will always overcome (1 John 5:4). Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to always tap into the strength of your word

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.
