YOU ARE FROM GOD

  YOU ARE FROM GOD Colossians 1:9-18 Devotional:- “For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him” (V. 16) One of the greatest troubles of human life is people living out of their purpose. Until you find your purpose and fit into it, life will continue to be a struggle. Locating the meaning of human life is one of the greatest adventures someone can embark on. This is because when the purpose of a thing is not known abuse is inevitable. That is why the human life is so abused today.  As God’s kingdom citizens, finding the purpose of life and the meaning of life becomes easier when we source for it from the word of God. The best purpose of a product is known by the maker. To locate our purpose on earth, we must begin with our maker. The word of God says God made the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1).

A STEWARD

A STEWARD

Colossians 1:24-29
Devotional verse: “of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God which was given to me for you, to fulfill the word of God,” (v. 25)


    God want us to know that we are stewards in this world. Understanding this will make us walk rightly with God in this evil world. A major reason children of God don't live to please Him in all things is because they do not know that they are stewards.

It's important we come to know that all that is in this world belong to the Lord (Psalm 24:1). He made all things and own all things (John 1:3, Genesis. 1:1). He made both man and beast, both plants, water and even the rock. All He has done was to put man in charge of what He has made (Genesis 1:26-31). That is why both man and all that are in this world therefore belong to God.

As stewards we are put in charge to manage the affairs of this world for God. That is why it is expected of us to be faithful to God. A Steward is the one that is put incharge of another man’s property. All that we have still belong to Him (John 3:27, Matthew 25:14). That Is why God will not give us more than we can handle per time (Matthew 25:15). We should therefore keep it in mind that we shall give account of our stewardship one day before God (2 Corinthians 5:10). It is faithfulness in effective use of what he allow us to handle that leads to having more (Luke 16:10-12). That is why we must use all He gives to us, fearfully and diligently according to His instructions. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me clear understanding of my stewardship with you.

“LIVING CONSCIOUSLY OF YOUR STEWARDSHIP WILL LEAD TO YOUR PROMOTION”

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.
