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...

ABUNDANT MENTALITY

ABUNDANT MENTALITY 

Scripture Reading: John 6:1-13
Devotional:- “Philip replied, "Even if we work for months, we woundnt have enough money to feed them"” (V.7) NKJV


    Be careful not to reduce your life to poverty by the way you think. Remember your life will always go to the way of your thought pattern (Proverbs 23:7). This is because your thought pattern will always direct your action and attitude towards life (Matthew 12:33). If you keep thinking poor, it will be impossible for you to be rich. You are not poor. It is your mind that determines what you attract.

Jesus asked His disciples for an arrangement to feed five thousand congregation who has been learning from Him. The disciples have “it’s not enough mentality” But Jesus cannot see insufficiency. So, He told them to let the people sit in groups. He blessed the little and it was more than enough.

To have abundant mentality is to think big. It is to think abundantly but willing to start small (Zechariah 4:10). If you cannot start small, you cannot become big. Small beginning help us to grow with our business. That is why you must have a big vision but be humble enough to start at your level. No matter how great any vision may be, if you cannot start from where you are, you may not start at all. A success you don't grow, you cannot sustain. Stop looking at your vision as what cannot start small. Even big project are divisible to smaller units, take it one by one and you will end up big. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to arise with what you have given me.

“DON'T DROP YOUR BIG DREAM BECAUSE OF YOUR SMALL STATUS”

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 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.
