MAKING MONEY

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.

WORLD CLASS CHRISTIAN 

MARK 16:14-20
Devotional:- "And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature” (v. 15)


    There are two types of Christians in the world: The world class Christians and the worldly Christian. You are either in one of these groups. The worldly Christians look to God primarily for personal needs. They are saved but self-centered. Their prayer focuses on me first and focuses on their needs, blessings and happiness or comfort. They want to use God for their purpose instead of been used for Gods purposes. “Jesus sent us to reach the world, be part”. 

In contrast, world class Christians are people who are saved and know that they are here to serve the purpose of God. Find them anywhere in the world they will be serving God’s purpose. They are eager to receive personal assignment and excited about the privilege of been used by God. Everything they do in life is towards fulfilling the purpose of God and not just for worldly pleasure. They are happy to be a mouthpiece of the gospel and never ashamed of Christ (Romains 1:16). They know that eternity with God begins with judgment.

To be a world class Christian you need to mind shift from self-centered thinking to others-centered thinking (1 Corinthians 14:20). You must shift from local thinking to global thinking (John 3:16). Pray for opportunities to witness, for courage to speak, for others in the work and prepare to go for mission, shift from thinking here and now to eternity (Hebrews 12:1, Matt 6:20-21). Shift from thinking excuses to creative way to fulfill your commission (Jer1:7-8). Stop waiting for special calls to serve the Lord. Serve Him right where you are. If you want to be like Jesus, You must have a heart for the whole world as your field of harvest. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to be a world class Christian.

“YOU ARE EITHER A WORLD CLASS CHRISTIAN OR WORLDLY CHRISTIAN?”

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.
