  GOOD WILL Luke 2:8-14 Devotional:- “Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!” (V. 14) NKJV A great blessing of God to humanity at the birth of Christ is goodwill. A nation without it is completely under bondage. They cannot claim, nor ask, nor can they have anything from the Lord except by the common grace (Matthew 5:25). This is what the sons of men are before the coming of the Messiah. Men have been living under the pressure and the punishment of sin and the law. Men were governed spiritually by the law they were never capable of obeying. When Jesus came, then came the time of grace. This brought us into the season of the goodwill of God (Ephesians 2:8). Will is what every father writes to give the right of inheritance to each of the children. Before Christ, God’s will was not approachable for men. It was not favorable for a natural man. But God gave us another will in Christ Jesus. This is what the angel was announcing in verse 14. We refer to it t...

TRICKS​​​​

Scripture Reading: 2 Corinthians 2:3-11
Devotional:- “lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices” (v. 11) NKJV

    Some people always think they can handle the devil without God. I always tell people not to try it. He is far wiser. Your strength for victory is mainly in God. (Philippians 4:13). A major reason we should have nothing to do with him is that he operates with tricks and gimmicks. The devil always tries to come into issues in a subtle way. It was through this he was able to get Eve

Please, understand that you are made and wired to focus and concentrate before you can achieve anything. In the course of focusing, the devil is looking for how to subtly come in to let you slip out of the will of God. The appeal of Potiphar’s wife came as an executive and high status pleasure of sin. But Joseph knew it was the devil and he flee (Genesis 39:6-15). The devil didn’t come through co-staff but through the Chief Executive Officer. Some other people would have felt, you see, she is my director and there is nothing I can do. But Joseph understood the tricks of the devil and he flee.

Friend, watch out for those little carelessness. The devil can always use it to steal, kill or destroy. Don't use long spoon for the devil (1 Timothy 6:11). Then you will keep your strength in God. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make me to be wiser than the tricks of the devil.

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.

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.
