GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

DON’T LOVE MONEY

Scripture Reading: 1 Timothy 6:3-10
Devotional:- “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows” (V. 10) NKJV


    As much as money is important as a means of exchange in the world, as much as we should not cast our love on it. To love money will make a man turn evil. That is why it is important to define what it means to love money. 
Money is so important. God expect us to have dominion over the spirit of money (Genesis 1:28). That is why we should not turn money to an idol or turn our love on it (Matthew 6:24). Building up to be able to acquire is organizing to have dominion over it. This is labouring towards financial freedom. It makes you have the power of choice and able to live as you desire. It helps you to experience open doors. It connects you to people that matters (Proverbs 14:20). Yer God has given us the privilege to control it that it might be used for His glory (Isaiah 42:21; 1 Peter 2:9). When a man's motive is not unto the glory of God, the devil will help him to create ungodly ambition. That is why some sponsor killings.

Friend, understand that this world is not yours. The owner made it for a purpose. These purposes are centered around using what He has given us for His glory, to bless others around us and to take care of yourself. Don't abandon the house of the Lord because of work or business. You will be building a future of emptiness. The very purpose of money for a wise man is to honour God and affect others for His glory (Proverbs 3:9). Our motive should be to use it for the right purposes. Anything out of that will be a trap (Luke 12:15-21). You will not be trapped in Jesus name. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me not be trapped by money.

“YOUR MOTIVE IS THE EVIDENCE OF THE FOCUS OF YOUR LOVE”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
