  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

RESPECT THE LITTLE

RESPECT THE LITTLE

Scripture Reading: Genesis 2:1-8
Devotional:- “but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground” (V. 6) NKJV


    To become financially free, a strong factor is that we must stop looking down on little money. This is because, that is what we have the grace to access for now. Wise people knows that it is better to use what you have to get what you want. But the foolish waits for the big and postponed the attitude that will make them rich. Financial freedom come only to those who have the financial attitude no matter the volume.

In our scriptures today, the word of God says “before rain began, midst was watering the plants. As small as that was, yet it was sustaining the plants before the rain came. There is need for you to know that journey to riches is not by volume, but by your attitude towards money. You may not have as much as Mr. A; but start to grow your finances from your little level. With time what looks little today will become big when your attitude is right.

Just because people want volume, they have to organize robbery or be part of money ritual. They get the big volume but lack the attitude to sustain it. So, they will become poor later (Proverbs 13:11). Whatever you don’t produce, you cannot sustain. But a man that is growing gradually will have to grow the attitude of both to gather, to deny self not to touch it, to grow it and to sustain it. (Proverbs 13:11). 

Friend, don't envy a thief, he has no capacity for wealth and it will not last (Psalms 37:35-37). Godliness has a lasting blessing (Proverbs 8:18). The righteousness of God will protect the blessing of the righteous (Job 1:7-10). Start with the little. It is not the volume but your attitude. If you can start to grow your finances with what you have, then, you will soon be great. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be grateful for what I have and use it to climb.

“IF WHAT YOU HAVE IS TOO SMALL TO BEGIN WITH, THEN YOU ARE TOO SMALL TO BECOME BIG”
