RELEASING OTHERS

  RELEASING OTHERS Matthew 18:21-35   Devotional:- "So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses” (V. 35) NKJV Men can easily shout, “Away with him, kill him,” to others because they are not the offender. Very many parents will bitterly discipline their children for an offence they too have committed in the past, for which they were not killed. It is always easy to be a judge, though most judges cannot stand the face of trial. That is why the word of God instructs us not to judge others (Matthew 7:1-6). The scripture we read today reveals the wickedness of men. A man who owed his master so much, just like we all owe God so much. He was forgiven by his master, but cannot forgive his fellow servant. He rather locked him up in police custody for torment. His master heard and also reversed his decision on him for judgement.  Friend, who are the people you have refused to forgive? No matter what they...

MENTAL STRENGTH

Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 2:6-16
Devotional:- “For "who has known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?" But we have the mind of Christ” (v. 16) NKJV

    Our mind is the processor for our strength. Our mind is the place where the strength of life is directed before it manifests physically. That is why it is the state of the mind of a man that determines the strength of his life. No matter how strong spiritually a man could be, if the mind is not cooperating, the man will still be weak. It is the mind that is the battle ground of life. That is why you must avoid sin to avoid condemnation. The act of condemnation will always break down the strength of the mind. If anyone is walking after the flesh or worldly way the devil will always push such to condemnation (Romans 8:1). 

By your mind I am referring to your soul. Your soul is having three compartments: the intellect, the will and the emotion. The intellect think, the will decide and the emotion drives your actions. For a soul to be strong, you must mind what you are thinking, this will determine your decision and action (Proverbs 4:23). A strong mind will do everything to retain positive and possible thought always. This is not always easy except by the help of the Hoy Spirit.

To keep a strong mind, then labor to store the word of God in your mind (Colossians 3:16). The word of God is always positive. When it constitutes your thinking, it will strengthen your mind for right action and for right result. The word of God will give you value in life. That is why it will produce in you good success (Joshua 1:8). Peace.

 PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to build a strong mind.

“YOUR MIND IS THE SIT OF YOUR STRENGTH OR WEAKNESSES”

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.
