GOOD SHEPHERD

  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

WICKEDNESS

WICKEDNESS

Matt 25:26-28
Dev:- “But his lord answered and said to him, 'You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed” (v. 26) NKJV

    It is an act of wickedness when God invest in your life, the opportunities he has given you and you use it for nothing. It is an act of wickedness when God sees the ability in you and He gives you the grace to manifest it but you refuse. It is an act of wickedness when we fail. It is an act of wickedness when God keeps you alive, heal you, save you, strengthen you, and you still see God not good enough.

It is important we come to understand as citizens of the kingdom of God that God will count it an act of wickedness, having done all to keep us alive and we only give excuses. That is why you and I need to look around to see all that the Lord has invested in us and take advantage of them.

Friend, you need to humble yourself to appreciate what God is doing. Stop looking at money but believe God. The mentality of no money has destroyed the riches of God in the life of most people. There is money. You and I only need to learn to access it. It is important you look carefully to see how you can start small. Stop comparing your life with others (2 Corinthians 10:12). It is always possible to start life from where you are. It is pride that makes us give excuses. God made you for a purpose. Don't squander it. Peace.

PRAYER- Lord, reveal to me your blessings around me.
