PARENT OF THE GREAT

  PARENT OF THE GREAT Exodus 2:1-10 Devotional:- “So the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she hid him three months..” (V. 2) NKJV. Anything you see that is great in life was incubated by some great people. If you can see anyone becoming great in life, you can easily trace the history back to the parents. I found something funny in this world: everyone wants their children to be great, but they don't bother to raise them for this purpose. People are wise enough to raise chickens for different purposes – some for laying eggs and some for consumption – but few are raising children with the purpose of leadership. We often expect the children to just grow and be great by luck or chance. If you observe great people in the Word of God, you can easily trace it back to their parents. This you can see in the lives of Isaiah, Joseph, David and others. I think it will be funny to sow maize and expect to reap yams. Moses, as we read today, was born...

METICULOUS

METICULOUS

Scripture Reading: John 6:5-14
Devotional:- “So when they were filled, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost." (V. 12) NKJV


    The act of being meticulous is a singular act that will always differentiate between the rich and the poor. This is one of the important attitude of life to become master over money. To be meticulous is to take extreme care in treatment of details i.e. little, little money. These are details of your capital, net, gross income and your savings. There is a very strong need to be meticulous because big money is gathered gradually and can be destroyed gradually (Isaiah 28:10). That is why those who love pleasure will be poor (Proverbs 21:16-17).

Jesus, having fed five thousand, He is still meticulous enough that they should gather the remnants. Do you know that a little here and a little there, they gather another twelve baskets full of bread? That is enough to feed the disciples and their family for two or three weeks.

Friend, there is no one created to be poor but we waste too many things with wrong financial attitude. If you sit down to calculate how much you spend in a month or in a year, you will be shocked that it will run to millions. Your spendings on call cards, transportation, soft drinks, gifts, shopping, funtime etc are in million every year. Someone else will sit down, do the calculations and cut each of them for savings. That way, you will be shocked of what you are saving. It's time to wake up. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be disciplined to care for little, of money

“GOD GIVE EVERYONE, BUT ONLY THE METICULOUS CAN BE RICH”

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.
