  YOUR OPPONENTS     1 Peter 5:5-11 DEVOTIONAL:- “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” (v. 8). NKJV When a man does not know his opponent, he will be totally ignorant of the way to victory. Most people always make the mistakes taking man as their enemy. As God’s children, we must come to understand that the forces against us are the forces of the devil, though they always use people. God’s word says we are not fighting against flesh and blood but against principalities (they take territorial government), against powers (master spirit), rulers of the darkness of this age and against the spiritual host of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12). These are forces of God that fell with the devil, and their powers were not taken from them (Revelation 12:7-9). You must understand that they are the ones manifesting and manipulating in different ways in human lives (2 Corinthians 2:11). Th...

PASSION 

Romans 9:6-13
Devotional: "For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen according to the flesh,” (V. 3)


    God has made each man and woman with a passion. Passion is the expression of our emotions. Our emotion is part of our soul that is created to help in carrying out or drive us into action till there is a result. When God want to use anyone to achieve a work, He will reveal the work to the ‘intellect’ of the person, the intellect will move it to the ‘will power’ which takes decision and this decisions are transmitted to the emotion who will help to drive it out with intense passion till there is a result of achievements. An example you can see is in Jeremiah 1:9-12.

In our Scripture of today, you will observe how Paul spoke of the nation of Israel so passionately. Ordinary desire is not expressed like that. Man of passion are die hearted. Your passion is a deposit of energy that cannot be exhausted.

Friend, God has given you that passion to work with. You must not sit down with a passion, else it will frustrate those who don't let it flow. It is like a fire in your bone, you better let it escape to the right place, or else it will consume you (Jeremiah 20:9). All you are doing now should reveal to all around you the beauty of the kingdom of God. It's time you translate that passion and energy to effect positive change in work, business and in the kingdom of God. Then, you are fulfilling your destiny. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to identify my passion and use it rightly 

“IF YOU DON'T LET GO YOUR PASSION, IT WILL SHORT YOU DOWN“

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.

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
