VALUE YOURSELF

VALUE YOURSELF 1 Peter 2:1-10  Devotional:- “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;” (V. 9) NKJV If anyone is going to enjoy the love of God, he must see himself as lovely. One of the ways for someone to see themselves as lovely is by valuing themselves. You need to know that of all the creatures of God, not only on earth but also in heaven, you are the most special. According to the word of God, there is no other creature that is as valuable as you are. You are the reason for the labour of the devil (1 Peter 5:8). You are the envy of the demons. You are the envy of the angels. A great percentage of the angels are serving the heirs of salvation (Hebrews 1:14). The scripture we read today calls you a chosen one. That is, among the multitude, God selected you out for Himself. You are a royal priesthood, that is, you are a kingly priest...

POWER OF SEED

POWER OF SEED

Scripture Reading: Galatians 6:6-10
Devotional:- “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap” (V. 7) NKJV


    Everyone should get to know that one of the mystery of creation is the creation of seeds (Genesis 1:11-12). Seeds are small but coded materials. As small as a seed could be, yet it contains all that can develop with time to become a tree. No matter how big a tree is, it started to grow from the seed level. It is a seed that creates a future. Jesus had to spend three days in the womb of the earth to rise to glory. 
We also need to know that there are many things in this world that has been made and coded as a seed. You need to know and be conscious of them. Jesus said the seed is the word of God (Luke 8:11). So also your words are seeds. All your actions and attitudes are seeds. All your labour officially or unofficially are seeds. Your thoughts are seed (Proverbs 23:7). Your commitment either at home, school, or office, church or community are seeds, your gift or offerings in the house of God are seeds. You are a seed to your generation (Genesis 3:15; John 7:42).

The mystery of seed is that when it is planted in the right way and in the right place, it can germinate to become something great. All that will become your lot in your future are all going to be harvest of whatever you are doing now. The wisdom here is that you should become more conscious of the fact that whatever you are doing is a seed. As leaders our seed should be sowed in love. We must learn to see something good about people, say something good about people or educate people in love and expect something good about people (Ephesians 4:2; 15-16). So, keep sowing as you want to reap. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be a faithful sower.

“NO ONE CAN SOW ONION TO REAP YAM”
