  SUBMIT TO HIM John 14:12-24  “Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (V. 23) NKJV   Sometimes on the platform of love, there is nothing men cannot offer to one another. If you truly love a man you will not want to reject or disobey him. You will want to do as much as it is in your capacity. You will not want to turn him down. Can you imagine how strictly you want to keep to an appointment with a loved one? If we have attached so much importance to responding to our lover, how much more God. If you truly love God it will be natural for you to submit to His will. You will not need to argue or ask too many questions. It will be a pleasure submitting to His will. Jesus said in the scripture we read today, if anyone loves me he will keep my words. In other word he will submit or obey my word. Then the reward here is that the father will also love such one i...

RESTORATION OF LIFE

Scripture Reading: John 11:36-44
Devotional:- Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. (V. 41) NKJV


    Sometimes, when things are going down, we become so scared. This is because in such times, we may not know what to do to bring it back to life. One of the mystery of praises is that it gets God involved in our situation (Psalm 22:3). That is why when we praise Him in such situation, He steps in and bring what is dead back to life.

Jesus got to the tomb of Lazarus and commanded the people to roll back the stone. He is the author of life (Act 3:15). He is the one that can connect man to life (John 14:6). Yet He needed to get God involved to restore life to the death and He gave thanks. Then, He called Lazarus out of the grave. And the dead man came out alive.

If you will start to praise God genuinely from your heart, that dead family situation, business or project will come back alive. Praises from a humble heart commits God to step into any matter for which you are praising Him. (Act 16:24-26). Stop celebrating the trouble, start to celebrate the God who can bring the dead to life. And God will restore life to your situation. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, as I praise you let me see the power of resurrection 

“WHEN GOD STEPS IN, DEATH WILL GIVE WAY TO LIFE”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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

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.
