LOVE CIRCLE

  LOVE CIRCLE John 15:5-12  Devotional:- “This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you” (V.12) NKJV The love circle is not yet complete, except for the love we have for the people around us. There is a circle of love just like we have a carbon cycle in nature. Today, many consider the level of God's grace in dispensing to them to be too low. But little did we often consider one of the strongest principles of God that gave birth to the love circle. This is the law of sowing and reaping (Galatians 6:7). The love circle simply shows that God loves us so that we might love others. And as we show our love to others, God also love us more.  We all know that we live in a hostile world full of hatred and bitterness. Yet the bible did not leave us with an option of neglecting them but commanded us to love them. Loving others is in obedience to God’s commandment and not because they deserve it. We should also know that we do not deserve God’s love. You don’...

NO ARGUMENT

Scripture Reading: 2 Timothy 2:14-19
Devotional:- “Remind them of these things, charging them before the Lord not to strive about words to no profit, to the ruin of the hearers” (V. 14) NKJV


    Some people take pleasure in winning arguments. So, they look for every avenue to create argument that they can win. Surely, it will not edify anyone, but create friction and tension among people. It will not help anyone out of his/her challenges rather; it will reduce the faith of people and destroy the anointing of the Holy Spirit upon us.

The scripture commands us to stop such. God made some of us to be sanguine, but there should be moderation in how we live before others. God give us this grace or He made us that way to be a mouth for the gospel. He made us to comfort, encourage and edify others (1 Corinthians 14:3). We need to keep it in mind that most grace of God leaked through the mouth (proverbs 10:19). Let us be careful not to jest away the joy and comfort of others.

Friend, winning arguments is not equal to winning in life. The Bible says this could ruin others. The word of God teaches us to bridle our tongues. As honorable vessels, let us be mindful of who we serve. Everything should not come out of our mouth (James 3:1-12). Argument does not lead to victory in life. Rather, let release our mouth for the gospel of peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me victory over the spirit of argument

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.
