MAKING MONEY Genesis 47:13-23 Devotional:- “And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house“ (V. 14) NKJV      Believers in this part of the world have long been in darkness over the importance of money making. But recently God made us know that we can prosper. However, as we come to greater maturity through the light of the gospel, we must move from the level of expecting someone to give us to the level of growing in wisdom to make money.

BECOMING LIKE CRIST

BECOMING LIKE CRIST

ROM 8:18-30
DEV:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the first born among many brethren” (V.29)

    The third purpose of your life is to become like Christ. From the very beginning God intend to make man to be like Himself (Gen 1:26). So like God, we are made a spirit and our spirit lives the body. We are intellectual, we can think and solve problems. We are relational, i.e. we can give and receive love. We also have a moral conscience to discern right from wrong which make us accountable to God.

God’s ultimate goal for you on earth is not comfort but character. He wants you to grow up and become like Christ. This does not mean losing your personality. Christlikeness is all about transforming your character and not your personality. Every time you forget that character development is the reason you are here you frustrate yourself. So, life is quite challenging because God is always attempting to mold us. Remember you are existing for God. 

For us to be Christ-like, we must cooperate with the work of the holy spirit in us. Character reformation happen when you obey God no matter the condition. Character reformation happen when you change the way you think to the way of the word of God. Consciously put on the character of Christ by developing new godly habits (Ephesians 4:24). Realize God use his word, people, circumstances to mold us. If you study and apply the word of God, fellowship regularly with other believers and learn to trust God in difficult times, you will become like Christ. God often prefer to work through people to make us value fellowship and growing together. Growth is always very slow but God wants you to endure in it to grow. Peace!

Prayer – Lord, help me to always yield to your word.

“IT IS YOUR CHARACTER NOT YOUR CAREER THAT MAKE YOU OF ETERNAL VALUE”

ONLY THE VICTORS Revelation 21:1-8 Devotional:- “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (v. 7) NKJV      In this part of the world, many are not so used to taking responsibility over challenges. Instead of been proactive to foresee and prevent issues, people are used to looking out for whom to blame and who should help out (Proverbs 14:23). It is vivid that we are in a challenging season. It is also clear that we are drawing closer to the end of the age.

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.

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.
