JOY

  JOY John 16:16-24  Devotional:- “Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.” (V. 20) NKJV God’s word says when sorrow endures till a night, joy comes in the morning (Psalms 30:5). This is an assurance and evidence that what is called sorrow is not a permanent situation in the life of a child of God. This is because it is certain that when a night comes, morning is always the next. The night is evidence of the coming morning. This is evidence that what you are going through right now will soon result in joy. In fact, the tougher it is, the closer the joy. May you see it. The scripture we read today gave us a new dimension of hope in our lives. Jesus said, our sorrow shall turn to joy. That which we think is a thing of sorrow shall suddenly become a thing of joy. Jesus likens it to a woman who is in labour. Women in this state often feel as if the end has come. But ...

WORK SMART

Psalms 119:97-104
Devotional: "You, through Your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies; For they are ever with me.”  (V. 98)


    To work smart is to use our mind as we work i.e. taking our thinking along when working. It is to be able to do the same job people do, in a better, faster and cheaper way with a sense of dynamic innovation. It is to get result by engaging your intellect as you work. It is to put excellence into your work to make it excel or stand out (Daniel 5:12). In this world, some are just smarter than the other in achievements.

In our scripture today, David said, I have more understanding (smarter) than my teachers. I am smarter than my enemies. Smartness will always make a man to be of better result. This makes you beat your competitors. Working smart becomes possible when a man can clearly define his purpose of work and carry his mind along when working. So many cannot take initiative when working. They depend on the brain of the manager or boss to think. Please, don't do this to yourself. 

God has given you a brain to think. You must think of getting your result faster, better and easier. To work smart involve working hard with your Spirit, Soul and Body for better and greater result. It is a crime to act without meditating. So many people do this. This is the reason our nation is where she is. Let us not live that way. This year, you will get there. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, teach me to work smart

“SMART WORK WILL ALWAYS WORK OUT SMART PROMOTION“

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.
