GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
