DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

PERSEVERANCE

PERSEVERANCE

Scripture Reading: Romans 5:1-5
Devotional:- “And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance;” (V. 3)


    Every God’s vessel must be willing to persevere. It is only those who can persevere that can prevail. Most good achievements need tenacity and endurance. Every great achievement have painful endurance. All God’s vessel must therefore learn to persevere.

The word of God says; perseverance produces character. To persevere is to stay in pursuit of a goal, though, it looks not working. Most good ventures will always want to proof difficult or even impossible. In the cause of a man persevering, i.e. determined to stay through, he will pick many lessons and develop new characters. This is the beauty of persevering. Desperate and temperamental people cannot grow.

Friend, in what God has given you to do, there is a need to stay through to the end. That is the way to become real man or woman. Staying in our pursuit will make us experience man in his diversity. It will teach us not to depend on people. It will teach us ways to understand with people in their situations and their level of weaknesses. We will see real and genuine people in their challenges and make us appreciate God for our lives. Then we will become rich and strong in our hope in God. Peace.

PPRAYER: Lord, give me a persevering spirit.

“ONLY THOSE WHO CAN PERSEVERE CAN BE REAL PEOPLE”.

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.

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.

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
