APPRECIATION

  APPRECIATION Psalm 92:1-10 Devotional:- “It is good to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High” (v.1) NKJV It is in the habit of most people that when they are expecting something from God, they will do everything possible to gain His favour. But as soon as it is done, that thing loses value to them. So, people only value what they don’t have. This sometimes does not make us have a heart of gratitude to God. We will always promise to give thanks, but as soon as we receive our expectations, some will forget to give thanks. Many do not know that the opportunity or privilege that is available to them is what qualifies them for what they are expecting. But they look down on this because their expectations have not been met. Your health is more important than travelling abroad. The breath of life you enjoy is far more valuable than the car or job you are expecting. In fact, this qualifies you for those things. Friend, no matter what God has done for you,...

FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8
Devotional:- “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." (V. 8) NKJV


    Anyone who wants to be vessels unto honour is seeking to be used by the Lord. God will have to dwell in you before He starts to use you. God is a Spirit (John 4:24). That is why someone who wants to be a vessel unto honour must be filled with the Holy Spirit.

Jesus told the disciples that they should not venture to do the work of God unless they are filled with the Holy Spirit. The difference became so clear and the effect of their ministry became so powerful after the day of Pentecost. Everyone is controlled by the spirit in them. As a believer, we must therefore ensure that all the members of our household are filled with the Holy Spirit. So that no one around us will be a vessel for the devil.

Friend, don’t let socialism distract you from the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of all vessels of honour. Someone like Apostle Peter was a failure in business but the Holy Spirit made the difference in his life (Luke 5:1-11; Act 2:38-41). Most of the disciples were not as educated, but the Spirit makes the difference in their lives (Acts 4:13-14). To be an honorable the Spirit of God must dwell in you. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, let your Spirit dwell in me always.

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.

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.
