When such have put forth the best to achieve something good, and it looks as if the forces of life are standing against them, they want to give up and refuse to do something serious again. They take to the thought “I know it may not work”. But do you know, no matter what the enemy may be doing, your destiny is intact? There is nothing anyone can do to destroy your destiny.

WISE SPENDING

WISE SPENDING 

Scripture Reading: Luke 15:11-15 
Devotional:- “But when he had spent all, there arose a severe famine in that land, and he began to be in want” (V.20 NKJV)


     A major factor that separates the rich from the poor is wise spending. The way some people spend money is a pointer to the fact that they can never be rich. What a poor man will consider small and be willing to throw around is what makes the rich to be rich. The poverty mentality makes some people to give themselves to pleasure (Proverbs 21:17). The devil always help people to define pleasure in a wrong way, just to waste their financial future.

The prodigal son do not know that unwise spending can squander any amount of money. Some ignorantly feel that some amount of money can't finish. Many people have this wrong mentality that money will continue to come as it has been coming. Only to be disappointed and be telling the story of better yesterday. Some wrongly spend to show off and please friends who don't like them, who will even call them fools behind (Proverbs 21:17).

Friend, stop behaving like the prodigal son. His life is enough lesson for all. It is important we acquire what will make life comfortable but living to pursue just this things is a poverty mentality. Our spending should not majorly be on liabilities but on assets. That is what will bring more income for us. Discipline yourself to choose right spending. Bad friends and pleasure will always make a man poor (Proverbs 13:20). Be warned. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, deliver me from bad influences on my finances.

“BAD COMPANY AND PLEASURE WILL MAKE A MAN POOR SOONER OR LATER, NO MATTER HOW MUCH HE HAS”

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.

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” (V. 17) NLT  God has a purpose behind every problem. God depends more on circumstances to grow our character than reading the Bible; this is because we have challenging circumstances twenty four seven. The word of God made us to see challenges in our life as normal (1 Peter 4:18). Your deepest expression of worship is mostly in the darkest days. It is during suffering that we learn to pray our most authentic, heart-felt and honest prayers to God (James 5:16). God would have kept Jeremiah from the throne to the pit, Joseph from been thrown into the jail, Paul from been shipwrecked or the three Hebrew from been thrown into the fire but he left those problems to himself. You will never know that God is all you need until God is all you have.  Everything that happens to you has spir...
