ACCEPT HIM

  ACCEPT HIM  John 1:1-12 “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:“ (V.12) NKJV It will be completely out of place for a woman to haven married to a man and later begin to say He is not acceptable to her. God does not encourage such excuse. Even though these do happen to some people but it is not the will of God. Many of such got married and ignorantly allowed their love to be blind, some moments after marriage the love will regain it full sight. That is why I tell people, it is foolish love that is blind. Open your two eyes very well. No matter how the nose, mouth, or leg of the sister or the brother now looks like, what God join together let no mouth or nose put asunder. The only solution is they should accept one another as they are, then resume into the responsibility of influencing and building each other (Proverbs 14:1). So also as children of God, we must accept or receive God just the way He is...

PROTECTING YOUR CHURCH’S FAMILY

PROTECTING YOUR CHURCH’S FAMILY

James 3:13-18
Devotional – “Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace” (v.18)


    Understanding that the second purpose of God for man is to belong to the church family, there is therefore a strong need for you to protect the unity of your church. Unity is the soul of fellowship. Nothing on earth is more valuable to God than the church because he paid the highest price for it and He wants to protect it.

For you to be able to protect the unity of your church, you need to focus on what you have in common and not your differences (Rom 14:19). God wants unity and not uniformity. God made our differences and that should be respected. We must not let our differences divide us. To protect the unity of your church you must be realistic in your expectations from people. Don’t over expect. We need to give up the thought that the church should be perfect and admit that we all are not perfect people but people that wants to be perfected.

To protect your church you must choose to encourage rather than criticizing (Rom 14:4-10). It is the devils job to blame, complain and criticize, don’t join him (Revelation 12:10). Then refuse to listen to gossip. People who gossip to you will also gossip about you. (Proverbs 17:4, Jude 1:19). Learn to confront those who gossip about your church and your Pastor Thessalonians 5:12-13). Pray for your leaders, pastors, and not arguing but prayerfully teach harmony to destroy disunity. Peace!

PRAYER ---Lord, give me the spirit of a peace maker.

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.
