PALMS OF HIS HAND

  PALMS OF HIS HAND Isaiah 49:14-20  Devotional:- “See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; Your walls are continually before Me.” (V.16) NKJV Sometimes in the course of the journey of life, we look at ourselves and ask questions. Who created me? Why am I created? Such times make life look not worth living; ungodly men at such times could consider death as a better option than living. When they see others laughing, they ask, what is making them laugh? Friend, Your laughter will soon come. Do you know that you are a special creature of God? The scripture we read today said you are inscribed in the palms of God’s hand. That means he loves you and is not willing to forget you. In Isaiah 49:15, He said, others could forget you, but He will not. When a man is in love with a woman, they take the pictures of each other all around in their books, bags and even in their bible. They look at the picture and have a feeling of love. They are never ashamed to show it to others. T...

BE GENTLE

Scripture Reading: 1 Peter 3:1-7
Devotional:- “rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God” (V. 4) NKJV


    No one wants to lose. Everyone wants to override others. That seems to be the way of most people today. It is becoming like a taboo to submit or to allow others. When a man has struggles in his spirit, he cannot be gentle in dealing with others. The word of God instructed us to be gentle. 

To be gentle is to be able to manage once temperament or behavior. It is to be tender and be easily corrected and adapt to positive change. It is to be moderate in action. Not harsh, but willing to help people gradually. It does not in any way interpret stupidity. It is a calm and confident spirit (Proverbs 12:1). The word of God actually calls it the inner beauty. Dictionary defines it, as been noble or having the quality of a noble birth. The word of God said, it is very precious before God. Another version says it is of the greatest value before God.

The reason for all of these qualifications is because gentleness produces quietness. Quietness creates humility to learn, listen and observe people carefully before responding to them (Proverbs 18:13). It is better to think than to talk. So, it always enhances a wise answer (Proverbs 15:28). This makes him to win by wisdom. Most wrong reactions are products of a loud heart. Inner struggle will have harsh reactions. God is set to make you an indispensable vessel in Jesus’ name. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, create in me a quality heart.

MASTER’S MINAS

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

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.
