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...

PATIENCE

Scripture Reading: Hebrews 6:9-12
Devotional “that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises” (V. 12) NKJV


    Whatever will last will take time to grow. Time will always be needed to grow into greatness. Great change does not happen overnight. A wise man will be patient until the formation of a great future but the foolish get deformed because of his impatience. To grow money, there is a need to allow growth with time (Romans 5:3-4).

Most people are impatient with money and that is why they easily terminate their final decisions and destroy their financial goals. Everyone that want to master the act of money must learn about patience. That is why worldly friend will not help you to grow financially. Most people want satisfaction now or never. They cannot wait for any reason. Whoever that work with them will resemble them.

Friend, to be patient is to allow a product to go through the normal process to become the best (Ecclesiastics 7:8-9). God's word always teach us to learn from the plant (Matthew 24:32). If you don't allow a growing plant to go through the process, it will be weak. It is in time of patience that we gain wisdom. Start doing the right thing gradually with what you have. Very soon your growth will be evidential. Be willing to go through the process of development. Stop walking with people with pleasure mentality (Proverbs 21:17). Don't compare yourself with anyone (2 Corinthians 10:12). Keep walking with the wise and you will be wise (Proverbs 13:20). You will not lack again. Peace. 

PRAYER: Lord, help me to build a patience spirit.

“PATIENCE ALWAYS BIRTH LASTING GROWTH”

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.
