STAND IN

  STAND IN 1 Timothy 2:1-7  Devotional:- “Here are my directions: Pray much for others; plead for God's mercy upon them; give thanks for all he is going to do for them.” (v.1) TLB . When God lifts a man, such a man must have enjoyed the intercessory ministry of others. It is part of the principle of God for us to receive (Matthew 7:7). This is because He does not want to break into our free will and damage our choice. He does not want to break into our decision. That is why we say it sometimes when an event happens, "Did God not see it?” Until He is asked to do something, He finds it difficult to do it. Rather, if He wants to promote a man and the man is not aware, He will touch other people to pray for him.  That is why you and I must also be willing to pray and stand in the gap for others. Paul was instructing Timothy and all of us as members of the body of Christ to pray for others. There are so many people around you who need one thing or another. Even though you ca...

YOUR ABILITIES

Exodus 31:1-11
Dev:- “And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,” (v. 3) NKJV

    God has invested in each one on earth some special abilities. What you are design to do, no one can do exactly like you. That is why if you don’t make your unique contribution to the body of Christ, no one will. God will at the end raise others. Your unique abilities are your natural inborn talents (Exodus 31:3-5). All our abilities comes from God at birth (Romans 12:6). 

Some studies have proved that an average person possesses from 300 to 700 different skills and abilities. Your brain can store 100 trillion facts, your mind can handle 15,000 decisions a second. You nose can smell up to 10,000 different odors. You are a bundle of incredible abilities, an amazing creature of God. You need to know that every abilities can be used to serve the Lord and bring glory to Him (1 Corinthians 10:31). God has a place in the church and in the world where your abilities can make a difference. You are the one to find out.

To discover your special abilities you must examine where you are very good. Your abilities were not given just to make a living, they are equally for your ministry (1 Peter 4:10). God doesn’t waste abilities, He matches them with our callings and capabilities. Whatever you are good at doing God expect you to use it to serve Him in the Church and in your place of work. 

Friend, don’t face eternity without using you talents or special abilities for God, it will be eternity without any reward. The Lord will help you. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me not to miss my opportunity to serve in your house

“IT’S YOUR SERVICES THAT WILL DETERMINE YOUR REWADS WITH GOD”

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.
