  JOYFUL COMPANION  Luke 1:37-45 Devotional:- “For indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy” (v.44) NKJV We must know that sooner or later, we will always look like the people we are moving with. God’s word says, he that walks with the wise shall be wise and the companion of fools shall be destroyed (Proverbs 13:20). This means that what we gain from the surroundings of our associates has a very strong influence upon our life. If a man walks with people who don’t know or appreciate joy, he may not also experience joy. We read about the visitation of Mary to Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist. Since two of them carry unique children of divine significance, they both have the Spirit of God in them. This brings about a joyful effect. As soon as Elizabeth heard the voice of Mary, the baby leaped for joy. You therefore need to understand that the richest place you need to seek to be is where God’s children are gathe...

MAKING PROFIT

MAKING PROFIT

Scripture Reading: Proverbs 14:23-29
Devotional:- “Work brings profit, but mere talk leads to poverty” (V. 23) NLT


    It's amazing to see how many of us don't think about profit at all. The moment some people sees money, they are just okey. They don't think of if the work and the earning is profitable. So many people doing businesses don't know the difference between capital and profit. What some people called salary is never a good income at all. Yet, they keep doing it.

It is important that you know that lack of profit is unrighteousness (Matthew 25:30). The unprofitable servant was to be casted into hell fire. This is actually because ‘lack’ will make many go to hell than many sins. So many are true followers of Christ but are secretly frustrated and hatting God in the secret of their heart. So many terrible atrocity in the society today are perpetrated by people from Christian home with Christian name. These are people who have no clue to how their financial life will bring joy to them. 

Friend, don't let this happen to you. It is important that you look into your business and define your profit. It may be spiritual, moral, relational, but there must also be a financial profit. If anyone is not making profit, God is not to be blamed. It is our carelessness that could turn a business to such.

Sometimes, you are enduring for a time in a particular place, such time is a time of sowing and learning. The truth is that, it should not be forever. Take this to God in prayers. Sit down to think it through. No matter what save 20 percent of your income. Be sure you are making profit. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give the understanding to my profit.

“IT IS YOUR PROFIT THAT DETERMINES YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE”
