  CELEBRATION 2 Chronicles 30:21-27 Devotional:- “So there was great joy in Jerusalem, for since the time of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel, there had been nothing like this in Jerusalem” (v.26) NKJV When we make ourselves available for the service of the Lord, we plug our lives into joy. This is because we are actually created to serve the Lord (Revelation 4:11). And when anyone finds himself doing what he is created to do, he finds fulfilment. The children of Israel in the time of Hezekiah, the king, gathered together to celebrate the feast of Passover. This was one of the feasts God commanded. This celebration is an opportunity to serve the Lord. They came together to yield in obedience to God’s instruction, and this produced great joy among them. Some cooking, some cleaning and others involved in other things just to make the feast successful. See, you need to know that you are not just created to go to school, work, earn, build a house, buy cars, have a wife, childre...

GRATITUDE

GRATITUDE

Scripture Reading: Colossians 3:12-17 
Devotional:- "And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful". (V. 15) NKJV


    Gratitude is an act of been grateful. As beautiful as gratitude could be, it is a virtue that is so scarce among the sons of men. This is because of the proud nature of our hearts. This is because of our selfish intension or motives.

Ingratitude in the presence of God is a great sin (Romans 1:21). Ingratitude is a product of a futile heart. This is a heart that is not patient enough to diligently produce results. He is too desperate to see what God is doing, so, always complaining (1 Corinthians 10:10). Ingratitude is pride. Ingratitude is an affliction of the devil to stagnate a soul and punish the destiny. Only the fools are ungrateful. This will only leave a soul in darkness and confusion (Romans 1:21).

Friend, for any life to become productive, such must be grateful to God in all situations (1 Thessalonians 5:18). This demands much humility and sincerity. This demands the understanding that God is good to you all the way. If any expectation is yet to come, they will come and God is not to be blamed. Face the reality and stop blaming anyone. He keeps you when you and your family sleeps. He provide for you in time of need. He heals you and your family. He open doors of help for you. Humble yourself to praise Him always. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always be grateful to you.

“ONLY THE GRATEFUL HAVE CONTINUOS GRACE FOR GREATNESS”

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.
