RIGHTEOUSNESS

  RIGHTEOUSNESS 2 Corinthians 5:14-21  Devotional:- “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” (V. 21) NKJV It is because of the love of God that we are called the people of God today (Romans 9:25). This has created an eternal problem for the devil. In the Old Testament, many people tried to please God, but they were not able, and this brought destruction upon them. The Bible mentioned that Jesus, when He died, went to hell to free the saints (1 Peter 3:19). These are men who had lived all their lives to obey the law, yet were not able to reach the mark of righteousness. Today, the righteousness they were not able to attain, we have effortlessly attained. This is not because we are better than they were, but because we are children born in due season. This is the righteousness referred to in the scripture as imputed righteousness (Romans 4:6-8). This righteousness is given to us through faith in the Lord Jesus Chri...

YOUR BODY

1 Corinthians 3:11-17
Dev “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?” (v. 16)

    Most people don't know that the body God has given to us is a gift of God for our living. The reason is because many are not even aware that they are spirit, who have a soul and dwell in a body. When God made man, He first molded the body with dust before breathing into the molded dust that became man (Genesis 2:7) 

It's important we know that our body is like a house in which we dwell. It is a life jacket. For us as children of God with the Spirit of God, the bible says the Spirit of God dwells in our body. That is why we must take care of the body which is a house given to man by God

We therefore must be careful to take good care of the body as good steward to the Lord. Do not use your body for sin or sin against the body (1 Corinthians 6:18). Do not abuse your body by putting all kinds of tattoo. Sanctify it to the Lord as a living sacrifice (Romans 12:1). That way you will live for the glory of God.

PRAYER- Lord give me the grace to take good care of my body.

“IF YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR BODY, IT WILL TAKE CARE OF YOU”

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.
