  PROMOTION Psalm 113:1-8 Devotional:- “He raises the poor out of the dust, And lifts the needy out of the ash heap” (v.7) NKJV Observe a joyful man, he will keep going up, and this is because joy makes room for the presence of God (Psalm 16:11). When God is available, He makes the joyful to inherit great places of the earth. We must understand the mystery of joy as affecting our level per time on the earth. In our scripture for today, God’s word says when a man is joyful and praiseful, God will set him on high among the princes. This is because a joyful heart accommodates praises, and where God is praised, God encompasses the place with favour (Psalm 22:3). Observe a happy man or woman; everyone wants to favour him/her. So when joy is available, it will move you to praise God, and your promotion is inevitable  The reason for your current level is directly proportional to your level of joy. If you want to go up, then increase in joy and praises (Isaiah 12:3). See, getting anno...

SANCTIFICATION

SANCTIFICATION 

2 Corinthians 6:11-18
Dev. “Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."” (V. 17)

The act of sanctification is what each believer must seriously consider. Until a man is sanctify unto the Lord, he cannot belong to God. He cannot always obey the Lord. Such will always do whatever he/she likes, since it is their life. 

The word sanctification means a conscious separation of one’s entire life unto God (Jeremiah 1:5). This is not a child's play but a conscious decision to separate one's life to Christ. To be sanctified unto the Lord is to submit your spirit, soul and body unto God. It is to willingly make Jesus your Lord and the controller of your life (Romans 12:1). 

Doing this demand total consciousness. Just like it is a conscious thing for a woman to be married to a man and this consciousness is reflecting through her life, so also a sanctified believer (Isaiah 54:5). That is how you will be able to go everywhere with the consciousness of your sanctification. By this you can no longer disobey your Lord (Matthew 7:21-23). You can no longer live as you like or do what the world is doing. Your culture become the culture of the Lord. If Jesus is your Lord your personal desires will always be put aside to obey the Lord (Matthew 26:39). If you are not always conscious of your sanctification vow, then you are not separate into Him and for Him. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, sanctify me by your word and accept me as a kingdom citizen for ever.

“IF YOU HAVE NOT CONSCIOUSLY SEPARATE YOURSELF THEN YOU ARE NOT”

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.

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.
