  RIGHTEOUSNESS 2 Corinthians 5:14-21  Devotional:- “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (V. 21) NKJV It is because of the love of God that we are called the people of God today (Romans 9:25). This has created an eternal problem for the devil. In the Old Testament, many people tried to please God, but they were not able, and this brought destruction upon them. The Bible mentioned that Jesus, when He died, went to hell to free the saints (1 Peter 3:19). These are men who had lived all their lives to obey the law, yet were not able to reach the mark of righteousness. Today, the righteousness they were not able to attain, we have effortlessly attained. This is not because we are better than they were, but because we are children born in due season. This is the righteousness referred to in the scripture as imputed righteousness (Romans 4:6-8). This righteousness is given to us through faith in the Lord Jesus Chri...

FAITH

Scripture Reading: Galatians 3:10-14
Devotional:- “But that no one is justified by the law in the sight of God is evident, for "the just shall live by faith"” (V. 11) NKJV


    We always read from the word of God that the just shall live by faith. It is therefore important that we seek to both understand the purpose of faith to our lives and how to life by faith. When the word of God says that the just shall live by faith, it mean that the just will be dead without faith. This death is disconnection from God. When someone is disconnected from God, the life and the grace of God cannot be connected to him. No one can enjoy much in God without faith.

As we yield ourselves as vessel unto the Lord, we are bound to face multiple challenges. This is because; we are standing in for God. No matter the challenges we are face with, we cannot be defeated because God is with us (Romans 8:31). No matter the challenges, we will always winning (1 John 5:4).

The winning strength in us is our faith. Our faith in the presence of God with us (Joshua 1:5; Matthew 28:20). Our faith in God’s ability to save us (Daniel 3:17). Our faith in the company of the angels of God (Psalm 34:7). Our faith in the power of God that is able to deliver (Daniel 6:22). We develop this faith as we meditate in God’s word. By this, we live and keep our connection with God. What meditation in the word of God helps us achieve is to convince our heart that the word of God is real and visible to us. This happen as we learn to imagine the word of God as real to us. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to stay connected with you by faith.

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 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.
