  UNDERSTANDING YOUR SHAPE Jeremiah 1:4-12 Devotional:- “I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.” (V.5 NLT) As a people crated to serve the Lord, God has design each of us in a unique way to be able to serve Him. We are so uniquely created that no one can find your duplicate. If you don’t contribute your part to the body of Christ God will make a replacement. (Act 1:20).  Look at the meaning of your shape the letter “A” represents your SPECIAL ABILITY. These are special abilities and talents given to you from birth. It is important we come to know that all our special abilities come from God.(Rom 12:6 ). So many people often give excuses of not having any ability to serve God but research shows that each of us has variety of 500 to 700 abilities. You are able to take thousands of decision in a second and more so you are loaded with special abilities. Please know that every abilit...

WHAT IS A WORK?

WHAT IS A WORK?

Genesis 2:8-17
Devotional : "Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Aden to tend and keep it.” (V. 15)


    It is important we have good understanding of what a work is. Without work, a life will be useless and worthless. God created us to work. God’s word says, He that will not work should not eat (2 Thessalonians 3:10). One of the evil that has plagued the world today is that, we have wrongly defined what a work is and limit it to only a means of income.

The scripture we read today shows us why God put man in the world, it is to work. A work is an effort expended on a particular assignment. It is a measure of energy released, either Spiritual, mental or physical, in moving an object from its original state to a better state of life. It is reshaping a thing or an event to benefit humanity. It is to provoke, excite or influence positive change. This is what God is waiting to bless. 

Friend, as we await the coming of our Lord Jesus, we must know that we shall be rewarded in eternity for our work (2 Corinthians 5:10). Work is  demonstrating the goodness of God through your life of faith. Work is not a curse, but a blessing. Do not keep wasting the blessing, energy, gifts and talents of God in your life. It is time to find a place to use them to make life better. Be involved in domestic, community and kingdom work from now. And your reward will be abundant. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me to impact lives with my work

“ONE OF YOUR GREATEST TESTIMONY IS TO ARISE AND WORK”

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.
