STRENGTH IN GOD

STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

PERSISTENT

PERSISTENT 

Read: Hebrews 6:9-18 
Devotional:- “That you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promise” (V.12) 


    Faith is persistence. When people embark on a race and soon give up that is the extent that their faith can carry them. In God you cannot do without faith. Your destiny must not be thrown into a trash can. That is why you cannot afford to just give up this race of life. You must win. Sometimes God is not moved by how long but how firm you have decided to stand to the end. 

Just as we read about Abraham, God’s word refers to him as a man who through faith and patience inherited the promise. Though it was taking time but he did not allow the situation to affect his faith. He knew that in a twinkling of an eye, God is able to fulfill His promises. He also knew God was only testing his ability to persist (Deuteronomy 8:2, 3, 13). 

Decide to provoke God’s hand by your persistence. Make your conclusion based on the faithfulness of God. Staggered not (Romans 4:20). Patiently wait and your case will become a miracle. Men shall share your testimony everywhere and every one that hears it shall laugh with you (Genesis 21:6). Peace. 

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to keep my faith to the end. 

“IT IS ONLY THOSE WHO CAN PERSIST THAT WILL PREVAIL”

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
