WAITING ON THE LORD

WAITING ON THE LORD 2 Samuel 5:1-10 Devotional:- “David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years” (v.4) NKJV One of the good virtues of God we must always appreciate is His faithfulness. God is not a man that will lie; whatever He has said in His word, He is able to do and He shall do. You can always plug yourself into His promises as much as you work in His covenants. I always tell people never to think God’s word is written only to some specific persons we hear or read about in the Bible. The word of God is the standard practice and programme of God. They were only privileged to be the ones to receive the word at their time, but God is still the same, and so is His word. In claiming the word of God, you must learn to be able to patiently wait. People who will retain their joy must add this virtue to their life (Hebrews 6:12). Our scripture today told us of the installation of David as king, but that was a promise he received from God when he was about 1...

SERVING THE LORD

SERVING THE LORD

Exodus 23:20-29
Dev:- "So you shall serve the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you. (Vs. 25)


    To consecrate our life to God as citizens of the kingdom of God we must serve the Lord. It is important we understand that God created us that we might serve Him. We are here to fulfill the agenda of heaven. But a lot of people are affected by the deceitfulness of money and pleasure of this world and do not bother to serve God (Mark 4:19)

The truth is that if anyone do not serve the Lord, he will serve the devil. He will help to build the kingdom of the devil unknowingly. (Deuteronomy 28:47-48) There is nothing we need in this world that God cannot give us. The devil always deceive man to think he cannot make it through God. The trouble in the life of most Christian is our laziness, especially mental laziness. So we expect God to do everything for us without taking mental responsibility to plan and work with discipline to achieve our plans. 

Friend, no matter your type of work, please serve the Lord. He is the one who can protect and preserve your life. Find out your gifts and special abilities and use them to serve God. Many of great people also do. You cannot be consecrated to the Lord when you have no time to serve Him. We are created for this purpose. You are promoted and protected for this purpose. We shall be rewarded in eternity for our service to God. (2 Corinthians 5:10). Peace! 

Prayer: Lord help me to be useful for you all my life

“IF YOU ARE NOT SERVING THE LORD, YOU ARE SERVING THE DEVIL”

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). 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.

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.
