SUCCESS YOUR PURPOSE 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Devotional:- “And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (V. 8) NLT When a person turns to the Lord, invite Jesus to his/her life, and surrender to Jesus as Lord and saviour, then he/she sincerely becomes a Christian. This is the state many in the church has not attained. Many struggle to surrender their lives to the Lord because they are afraid of failure, not able to trust God to give them success, and their love for the things of this world (1 John 2:15-17). When you sincerely surrender your life to Jesus Christ, your view of success cannot but change. Apostle Paul said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful” (2 Timothy 4:7). When you start to live for God, your definition of success will change from materials to purpose. Liv...

YOUR EXPERIENCES 

1 Sam 17:48-58
Devotional: "Then David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone; and he slung it and struck the Philistine in his forehead, so that the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the earth” (v. 49)


    Your experiences in life is a function of repeated exercise or unavoidable practices you find yourself. This could be in form of a training or a job that train you to specialize on a particular part of production. Experiences are therefore the strength we gathered or the skill we have built in by exercising in it over a period of time. Experiences of life, either good or bad ought to make our lives better.

In the scripture we read today, David confronted Goliath and kill him with a stone and a sling. This is an instrument he must have been used to with time. Some are experts in using this to fight (Judges 20:16) If a man is not experienced in it, you may not be good at it. Lack of experiences can make someone to be wounded in the use of such.

Friend, there are also some skill of life you have acquired by the reason of your experiences with them. God expect you to use them in your office and to work in your business. A highly qualified man in a profession without experience on the job cannot be compared to a man without qualification but experienced. God has given each of us these opportunity that we must work with. So, look at this side of your life and use it in your office and business for the progress of your work. And you will be rewarded. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, make me a blessing with my experiences 

“THE PURPOSE OF EXPERIENCE IS FOR A WORK OR A BUSINESS“

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.
