  GREAT HOME John 14:1-6 Devotional:- “In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you” (V. 2) NKJV At creation, God created man into a paradise made for his eternal pleasure. God did not intend that the human race would ever live in suffering. Man was made to enjoy the best of mental exertion for a beautiful outfit. Man was to live forever in the paradise of God. But the devil cunningly deceived man, which made God chase man out of the paradise. Since then, the life of man has been terrible and most miserable. That is why when people have everything they need in this world, they will still discover that they are not fully satisfy. There is no place we can live that will fully satisfy us. This is a factor and the fact that something in us is still looking for something somewhere better than this world. In search of this, some people try to go to the moon and other planets. But in the scripture we read today, Jesus ...

PRIDE

Scripture Readings: Daniel 4:28-37
Devotional:- “That very hour the word was fulfilled concerning Nebuchadnezzar; he was driven from men and ate grass like oxen; his body was wet with the dew of heaven till his hair had grown like eagles' feathers and his nails like birds' claws” (v. 33) NKJV


    One of the instruments of the devil to destroy people's strength is pride. Whatever reason a man is proud is not wisdom. The word of God says “when you see pride coming, a fall is bound to follow”. There is no height a man has attained that pride cannot bring him down. It brought Nebuchadnezzar to years of living like an animal (Daniel 4:33). It made the prodigal son to waste his father’s resources (Luke 15:13). Please be careful of pride.

As terrible as pride could be, it can happen to anyone who is not of understanding. That is why we need to know what causes pride. Pride is an emotional feeling in anyone who feels he/she is above others. Pride is a product of allowing people to place us on the throne of tissue papers. Pride is a feeling that we are bigger and greater than others. Anytime we feel this way, we need to careful (Proverbs 16:18).

People are able to rise up in life because they enjoy inspiration by revelation. All of these are giving by God (Job 32:8). If the understanding that brought lifting is removed in a day, that man will be confused and will start to fail. That is why a king that is ruling the whole world can become like an animal. Nothing can make us rise but the strength of the Lord. Refuse pride. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me never to be fooled into pride.

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.
