  SUBMIT TO HIM John 14:12-24  “Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (V. 23) NKJV   Sometimes on the platform of love, there is nothing men cannot offer to one another. If you truly love a man you will not want to reject or disobey him. You will want to do as much as it is in your capacity. You will not want to turn him down. Can you imagine how strictly you want to keep to an appointment with a loved one? If we have attached so much importance to responding to our lover, how much more God. If you truly love God it will be natural for you to submit to His will. You will not need to argue or ask too many questions. It will be a pleasure submitting to His will. Jesus said in the scripture we read today, if anyone loves me he will keep my words. In other word he will submit or obey my word. Then the reward here is that the father will also love such one i...

QUALITY WORK

Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 3:8-17
Devotional:- “each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is” (V. 13) NKJV


    It is important that we keep it in our heart that our labour is not in vain in the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:58). There is nothing anyone does for God that will not be rewarded, if it is done faithfully. Knowing that God will surely reward us calls for effectiveness, persistency and faithfulness. 

The word of God told us that the foundation of all we are called to do is Christ. Nothing should be added or subtracted from Jesus. So that our work can be rewarded. The Bible says “we should watch what we are building on the foundation. Someone may be building gold kind of work; others may be building at the silver level, others as precious stones while others as wood hay or straw. 

Friend, let us build quality service in God. Let your work not be likened to hay or straw or grass when others are building with gold. All of this talks about the quality of our work before God. This quality is determined by our commitment and loyalty to God, our persistency and faithfulness. Stop looking at man to serve the Lord. From today start to give quality services to God wherever you are. Your reward will come in Jesus name. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to continue faithfully

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.
