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...

GOOD WORKS

GOOD WORKS

Scripture Reading: Ephesians 2:1-10
Devotional:- “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them”  (V. 10) NKJV


    God is a good God. He is the one that does good works (Job 5:9). If anyone therefore wants to do good works as the Bible says, then he/she must be ready to do what God is doing. To do good works is also to be used by God to help others. Good works are therefore a ministry of help to humanity.

The word of God said: God has recreated us and prepared us for this. In other word, we were saved and redeemed for this purpose. When Jesus redeemed us, He has repackaged in us the ability to do good works. This He does through the Holy Spirit He gave to us. The Holy Spirit does this through us by giving us different abilities and gifts (1 Corinthians 12:6-7). These are our instruments for good works.

It is therefore important that make sure our services to God are good works before God. This is by doing it to please the master and to bless lives. Our work may look good but it is not done in righteousness, it will be bad work. The difference between good and bad work is that only good work will be rewarded by God. God must direct us to it and we do it in His will by His grace and abilities He gave us. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make all my life for your good works

“It is either you are doing good work or bad work”
