ALL WORKING TOGETHER

  ALL WORKING TOGETHER Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” (v.28) NKJV Sometimes, because dates and times are rolling, we tend to start to think if the will of God will ever come to pass in our lives again. Some will ask, if God want to do it, why has He not done it all this while? This is a product of us waiting and expecting God to fulfil His promises in our lives within a time frame. And since time is going, we start to nurse some doubt about God’s ability and willingness to fulfil His promises in our lives. If you observe critically, most people come to that state simply because they compare their lives with others. But many of us often forget that God is taking us all the way through a different route to a different destination.  All that we need to do is to be sure that we discover and remain in the purpose of God for our lives. Others might look much ...

HOLINESS

HOLINESS 

1 Pet. 1:13-21 
Dev:- “but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct” (vs. 15 ) 


    If we want to make it to eternity with God it is expected of us to be holy. This is because heaven is a holy place and nothing unholy will ever enter the place (Ephesians 5:5). That is why each one who desires to make it to heaven must set themselves aside in holiness unto the Lord.

In our scriptures for today, the Bible tells us that holiness is the standard of God. That is, you need to know that we have been called to holiness (1 Thessalonians 4:7). And if holiness is the standard of God anyone who want to live with God must be holy. 

To be holy is to live a life that works only in the will of God. This may not be achieved when we first give our lives to Christ but we are to grow into holiness. Each of us should grow to be perfect before the Lord (Matthew 5:48). This will happen as we keep a daily work with  the Lord, in meditating on his word day and night and keep his word in our heart (Psalm 119:9-11).  It is as we keep our fellowship with his holy people, the church that the grace for holiness will rest on us.  (1 Peter 2:9). Peace!

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace for holiness.

“YOU ARE EITHER HOLY OR UNHOLY”

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).

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.
