NATURE OF LOVE

  NATURE OF LOVE I Corinthians 13:1-8  Devotional:- "suffers long and is kind .. does not envy.. does not parade itself…” (V. 4). Since men do not have the actual understanding of love, they turn it into lust. And now it is lust most people call love. It is the reason for most frustration and discouragement today. The scripture we read today revealed to us the true nature of love. It reveals to us that no man’s service shall be acceptable or profitable until he puts in love (v. 1-3). The beautiful thing about the nature oflove is that it is the nature of God, for God is love (1 John 4:8). And if God dwells in us, love should also be demonstrated in us. The scripture says, love suffers long, that is why God loves to forgive his own people. Several times we have turned away from him, yet He does not turn away from us. He still looks for us. So also we should do for all we love. Love is kind, and that is why God has been kind to us. He doesn’t condemn us; He wants us to repent (E...

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.

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.
