MY REFUGE

  MY REFUGE Psalms 46:1-7 Devotional:- "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” (V. 1) It is always very easy for men to say God is not good to them when they have a pressing need. But if you observe it carefully, wisdom will let you always appreciate Him. It is not every one that began this year that is still alive now. Many were faced with challenges greater than themselves and were swallowed up. If you listen to the reasons for their falls, they are not too great. The truth is that you also have passed through challenges greater than theirs, but God was your refuge. Anytime you run to Him, you will find a hiding place in Him. Even when it looks like the situation wants to swallow you, you still find strength for help in God. Do you know that you have been enjoying His refuge not because you are better but because He loves you? No matter what happens, do not be afraid, your lover is your refuge. All you need to do is keep drinking from the river from the...

SANCTIFICATION

SANCTIFICATION 

2 Chronicles 29:3-19
Dev:- And they gathered their brethren, sanctified themselves, and went according to the commandment of the king, at the words of the LORD, to cleanse the house of the LORD. (v.15)


    It is very important as we wait for the coming of Jesus that we sanctify ourselves unto God. To sanctify oneself is to decide to separate oneself unto God. The word sanctification means separation. Many people follows the Lord but not many are separated unto Him. To sanctify yourself unto God is to consciously see yourself as belonging to the Lord.

There are two spirits that rules the world, the spirit of God and of the devil. Either of these two spirit rules in the life of all humanity without knowing. The spirit of the devil often want to come in to control the life of people and this can happen to anyone who is not careful (Mark 8:33). That is why you must consciously sanctify yourself unto the Lord.

In sanctification you determine and separate yourself unto God. This will make you look out for any activities of the devil around you and reject it. In your mind you must see yourself belonging only to the Lord (Ephesians 5:11). You must not have anything to do with the work of darkness. No matter who is advising you when you are sanctified to the Lord you will want to discern the spirit (Gen. 39:7-12). The attitude of Joseph, Daniel and the three Hebrew was because they sanctify (separated) themselves unto the Lord. This are the kind of people Jesus is coming for.  Be prepared!

Prayer: Lord I receive grace to sanctify myself unto you.

"IF YOU ARE NOT SEPARATED UNTO SOMETHING, THEN YOU ARE SEPARATED TO ANOTHER”

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.
