  ATMOSPHERE OF LOVE l John 4:12-19 Devotional:- “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.“ (V. 18) NKJV In any environment where love is predominant, such environment will be characterized with liberty. So many people who desire an atmosphere of love today unconsiciously create barriers agaisnt it by not creating a free environment. In the home of some people, though they complain there is no love, they don’t create liberty among themselves. The scripture we read today says, “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. “A very good portrait of love is the atmosphere God created in the garden of Eden at creation. God wanted love, and so He made it a free relationship. Liberty is not an absence of rules and regulations but the joy of living by the rules without fear. Liberty without laws will surely lead to sin. That time, God will come down in His glory and ma...

MURMUR NOT

Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 10:6-11
Devotional:- Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer. (V. 10) KJV

    So many people love the praises of God and yet they are specialist in murmuring. The truth is that you cannot be murmuring and be praiseful. You need to know that been praiseful means, you are celebrating the goodness and the greatness God. Murmuring means you are complaining that God is not good to you. So, show me how they can work together.

When some finish dancing and praising God in the church and on the way, they start to murmur again. This is common with people because they see their needs not met as they expected. This make people unconsciously start to complain. This can happen to anybody irrespective of status. We must grow above of this because God hate it.

The children of Israel murmur against God and they were destroyed. Please note that whenever you are murmuring, you are doing it against God. Anytime the urge to murmur comes up, just switch to praises. Stop comparing yourself with anyone. You only have a classmate or age mate and not a life mate. Each one’s season in life is different (2 Corinthians 10:12). Stop been intimidated by other people’s achievements. Your season will surely come (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Then you will be promoted before the Lord. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, give me a matured heart not to murmur again.

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 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.
