  HOW REAL SERVANTS ACT Mark 10:35-45 Devotional:- “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (V. 43).   The world defines greatness in terms of power, possessions, prestige and position but God determined your greatness by how many people you serve. This is quite contrary to the world view. Jesus called Himself servant and to be like Him is to be a servant. That is why it is so important to have a servant’s heart. God often test our heart by asking us to serve even outside our shape or area of interest. Your priority area of service should be in your area of shape, but God could demand for your service wherever needed. Looking at how a servant act is important because one could serve in a church for years and not be a real servant. Real servants make themselves available to serve. If you only serve when it is convenient, then you are not a good servant (2 Timothy 2:4). Real servants pay attention to needs, always lo...

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”

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.
