  MY REFUGE Psalms 46:1-7 Devotional:- "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” (V. 1) It is always very easy for men to say God is not good to them when they have a pressing need. But if you observe it carefully, wisdom will let you always appreciate Him. It is not every one that began this year that is still alive now. Many were faced with challenges greater than themselves and were swallowed up. If you listen to the reasons for their falls, they are not too great. The truth is that you also have passed through challenges greater than theirs, but God was your refuge. Anytime you run to Him, you will find a hiding place in Him. Even when it looks like the situation wants to swallow you, you still find strength for help in God. Do you know that you have been enjoying His refuge not because you are better but because He loves you? No matter what happens, do not be afraid, your lover is your refuge. All you need to do is keep drinking from the river from the...

THANKSGIVING

Scripture Reading: Psalms 107:21-31
Devotional:- "Oh, that men would give thanks to the LORD for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!" (V. 21) NKJV

    To be thankful to the Lord is to appreciate Him for all His wonderful works in our lives. One of the things that brings stagnancy to the life of men is when God is not appreciated for what He is doing. When a man is not thankful it is because the devil has successfully blindfolded him to the goodness of the Lord. That is why you must not allow this to happen to you.

Sincere thanksgiving is a high level of maturity that God and man appreciate. When you can be thankful, you are simply realizing how good God has been to you. This usually turn God on to do more for such person. When you are thankful, you are helping the effectiveness of the forces of God that is participating to do to you the good God is doing in your life. 

Friend, you need to humble yourself to always give God thanks. This is for what He is doing and for what you are trusting Him to do (Romans 4:20-21; John 6:10-11). This is one of the level of maturity God expect you to attain to qualify you for more in your life. It is as you appreciate the small thing, that the bigger ones will come (Zechariah 4:10). Stop comparing yourself with others (2 Cor. 10:12). Just be mature to thank Him always (1 Thessalonians 5:18). Don't wait till Service time. And God will make you experience His blessings (Psalms 67:5-7). Peace

PRAYER: Lord, give me a humble spirit to be thankful 

“A THANKFUL HEART IS QUALIFIED FOR MORE”

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.
