  JOYFUL COMPANION  Luke 1:37-45 Devotional:- “For indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy” (v.44) NKJV We must know that sooner or later, we will always look like the people we are moving with. God’s word says, he that walks with the wise shall be wise and the companion of fools shall be destroyed (Proverbs 13:20). This means that what we gain from the surroundings of our associates has a very strong influence upon our life. If a man walks with people who don’t know or appreciate joy, he may not also experience joy. We read about the visitation of Mary to Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist. Since two of them carry unique children of divine significance, they both have the Spirit of God in them. This brings about a joyful effect. As soon as Elizabeth heard the voice of Mary, the baby leaped for joy. You therefore need to understand that the richest place you need to seek to be is where God’s children are gathe...

YOUR MONEY

1 Timothy 6:17-21
Devotional: “Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share,” (V. 18)

        In this world, money is one of the strong means of exchange. With it we buy things from the market, with it, we pay wages, with it we pay bills, with it we serve the Lord and with it we demonstrate our love. So we can see that money is a vital factor in the life of people. But we must not forget that it all belong to God (Haggai 2:8). It is a product of the creation of God. So we shall give account of how we direct it.

The truth is that, money been a major means of income in this world has gain so much value in life and it has the tendency to replace God in our heart. That is why Jesus said, we must choose between God and money (Matthew 6:24). This is because, the moment we have the ability to buy, God may not be necessary again. So there are two types of people in our world. People who are controlled by money and people who controls money. You need to check your life to know the group belong to.

If money will not be your lord, then make Jesus your Lord consciously. Remember always that we shall give account of how we spend God's provision in our life. Let God direct your ways of making and spending money. Follow the instructions of the word of God on giving. So that you will not be in danger of judgment. Use it to bless your family and the Lord. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make me a master over money.

“GOD CANNOT BE CONTROLLING YOU AND MONEY IS DOING THE SAME”

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.
