ENVY NO ONE

  ENVY NO ONE Genesis 37:1-11  Devotional:- “And his brothers envied him, but his father kept the matter in mind.” (V.11) NKJV For a man to enjoy God’s love being wonderfully demonstrated to him, he must constitute a habit of not envying anyone. This is the reason why many cannot demonstrate genuine love to others. It is time you begin to understand that your value is not comparable. Envy is an emotional act people put on when they feel someone is better than them. Envy is always the mother of negative jealousy. It breeds bitterness and pushes people to commit all kinds of crimes. Some people’s reason for being armed robbers is that since they could not make it legitimately, they must go and get it by force from the hands of those who have made it. The truth is that there is no one who cannot make it. The problem with Joseph’s brother was that they did not know the truth of the word of God. As children of Abraham, all of them are already pronounced as successful in life. Josep...

LET HIM USE YOU

Scripture Reading: 2 Timothy 2:18-26  
Devotional:-“Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work” (V. 21) NKJV


    Everyone you see on this planet earth is used either by the Spirit of God or the spirit of the devil. The spirit of man came from God but it can be ruled by either (Genesis 2:7). This is because God has made man a free moral agent God has given us the grace to make choices. That is why you need to be deliberate about the spirit you submit to every minute of your life. 

A man may be used by the Spirit of the Lord now, and in the next moment being used by another spirit. We see an example in Peter (Matthew 16:15-23). That is why the word of God teaches us to test all spirits (1 John 4:1).

If God will use you and you will not be a vessel unto dishonor, then, the word of God tells us to be transformed to the new man in Christ (Romans 12:2; 2 Timothy 2:21). The word of God tells us to flee from lust, pursue righteousness, faith and peace. Avoid disputing and quarreling. Gentle to teach with patience and correcting others with humility. God’s word says if we do this things, we shall be useful vessels for God (2 Timothy 2:21). As a worker in the house of God, these are what make your services acceptable and rewarding (Romans 12:1). Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make me to be useful for you alone.

“TO BE USEFUL FOR GOD IS A CHOICE”

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.

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.
