HELP

  HELP Isaiah 41:10-20  Devotional:- “Fear not, you worm Jacob, You men of Israel! I will help you," says the LORD And your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel” (V. 14) NKJV Just because God loves us, He has promised to help us. Every man, at one time or another, will need help. This is because the strength of man is inadequate in most cases. Most of the time, our strength proves inadequate, even when we are close to success. You will observe that with all your determination, thinking you can do something, sometimes, you will only get to the middle, to discover that your strength has been exhausted. At such a point, people who don’t have God turn to the devil for help. The devil will always take advantage of such a time, pretending to have a solution but only trying to trap their lives. Friend, don’t turn to the evil way for help. He that creates you and loves you says, “He will help you.” Stop looking unto men (Psalms 121:1-2). Look unto Jesus today. Call upon Him now, and He wi...

CLOSE RELATIONSHIP

Scripture Reading: Luke 5: 12-16
Devotional: “So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed” (v. 16) NKJV


    For anyone to gain strength in God, such must choose to have close relationship with God. Some people always want to withdraw from the presence of God. They feel it will make them to be over spiritual and no more social. But the truth is that they cannot be strong in the Lord. Yes, they will be socially relevant and even have some money. But in the days of challenges, they will not be able to stand (Proverbs 24:10).

It is said about Jesus that He often withdrew into the wilderness to pray. It was not that He does not want to have time of fun and enjoy himself. But there is time for everything. This one must be given a priority. If not, He will not be able to manifest the power of God or fulfill His destiny. 

Friend, if you will be strong in the Lord, you need a close and continued relationship with God (Psalms 119:164; Mark 1:35). That is the price of strength in God (Proverbs 13:20). Always traveling on Sunday morning, busy during prayer time or no personal time with God will make anyone a weak prey of the devil. Arise and be strong. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to give up worldliness to be strong in you.

“YOU CANNOT BE STRONG IN THE WAY OF THE WORLD AND BE STRONG IN GOD”

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.
