HOW REAL SERVANTS ACT

  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...

LIVING BY FAITH

LIVING BY FAITH 

Romans 1:16-28
Dev:-  For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "The just shall live by faith" (Vs. 17)


    Consecration to the Lord demands that we learn to live by faith. This is because the God of this kingdom is a Spirit and it will demand faith to walk with Him (John 4:24). To live by faith is more disturbing to a natural mind who wants to live by what he/she sees. God’s word says we do not live by sight but by faith (2 Corinthians 5:7).

To live by faith is to depend upon the promises of the word of God in the mist of situations. To live by faith is to take the energy of life from the word of God (Psalm 119:97-100). It is to make God the source of our confidence and courage (Psalms 20:6-8). It is to make God your hope and expectation (Psalms 62:5). It is to depend on God for solutions in time of challenges. 

God’s word says those who trust in the Lord shall not be put to shame (Romans 9:23). When men don't want to live by faith in God, they will have to turn to ungodly ways in times of tribulations and trials. So make up your mind to live by faith. And God will not allow you to be put to shame. When you have any need turn to your God for directions and obey Him. And your life will always be a testimony.

Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to always live by faith.

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.
