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...

HEAVENLY FOCUS

HEAVENLY FOCUS

Colossians 3:1-11
Devotional:- “Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth” (V. 2


    It is important that all children of God should set their mind on things above. The Holy Spirit is from heaven (Acts 2:1-4). Jesus Christ our redeemer came from above (John 8:23). That is why our focus should be heaven. If our focus is heaven, then all we are doing should be of eternal value. The word of God says, where your treasure is, that is where your heart shall be (Matthew 6:21)

The scripture we read today encourages us to set our mind on things above. Which means we should be heaven focused. In everything we are laying our hands upon, we should consider the eternal value; the eternal implication and the eternal reward. We should be careful not to just do things for doing sake, so that we can prepare for our eternity in all our ways. 

Friends, know that the things of this world are passing away soon (1 John 2:17). You and I should not pass with the world. Let us be mindful of where we go, what we do and what we give ourselves to. We should be expecting the coming of the Lord always. This should make us to live ready for His coming. You will not miss your flight in Jesus name. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, fill my heart with the glory of heaven 

“WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE YOUR HEART WILL BE”

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.

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.

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.
