BEING HELP

  BEING HELP Romans 12:9-20 Devotional:- “Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality” (V. 13) NIV There is hardly anyone in the world who does not need help, except that they are not making any move to make something happen. So help is a need of people who are looking forward, people who have vision or people who are pursuing a life goal. If you consider yourself in need of help, then you are just one of the people on the path of success. This help could vary from the need for the right people’s assistance, counselling, or money and material. We need to understand with clarity that at any period in time, we will surely reap what we have sown (Galatians 6:7). And so we must keep sowing help into the life of others to reap help. The bible says, “Share with people who are in need“ Let us be careful not to be too need-conscious that you don’t remember to do good to others. There are people you are far better off. There are people around us who look at us as priv...

RESISTING

1 Peter 5:5-11
Dev:- “Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world” (V. 9)


    Every action will always command reaction. That is why a child of God is known by his ability to stand and resist the activities of the devil around his life. That you have a reaction is normal but to submit to reactions is a sign of weaknesses. No one has the right to stop the will of God in your life.

 The scripture we read today says, we must be sober and be vigilant. In other word, we must be humble enough to admit the need for battle in our life and we must learn to live ready. The word of God instructed us to resist the devil steadfastly. Which means don’t take it easy with the devil. We are to resist the devil when we have ungodly or unbiblical information coming to us (Matthew 16:23). This could be either inform of ungodly sensational feelings or confusing information contrary to the word of God (Luke 4:8). 

For us to be able to resist the devil we must do it in the faith we have in the word of God. Resisting the devil involves been vigilance. It involve declaring the word of God (Luke 4:4). Wisdom will rather prevent a problem than curing it. So the moment you sense any activities of the devil, stand against it by the word of God and by the Holy Spirit in you (Isaiah 59:19). Surely you are on the winning side (1 John 5:4). Peace!

Prayer: Lord, strengthen me for victory always

“WHATEVER YOU DON’T RESIST, YOU’VE RECEIVED”

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11).

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.
