  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 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.

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.
