  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 SOUL

Mark 8:34-38
Devotional:- “Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” (V. 37) NKJV

    Your soul is actually your being. It is the man in you. It is your soul that will stand the judgement of God at the end of life. Your soul is the immaterial part of your life. It is your soul that really drives your life to all you have been doing and will do. It has three compartment. The intellect, the will and the emotion or action drive. Everything you do in this world passes through three compartments of your soul. That is why you are responsible for all your actions. They all pass through processes.

The word of God says “what shall profit a man to loss his soul to the devil in eternity?” Today, many are selling their souls to the devil. The worst of it all is that 90% of the so call Christians has not sold their soul to anyone. They neither sold it to God nor the devil. They have not taken any conscious step to do this.

 Friend, I want to encourage you to give your soul to Jesus. Let Him be the owner and controller of your soul. That way, you will not lose it (Mark 8:36). If your soul is for Jesus, then you will not follow any other but Christ (Matthew 7:21-23). Take time to decide today who will be the owner of your soul. Do this not in words alone but indeed. If all you do are not being controlled by the Lord, then Jesus is not your Lord. Watch out. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to totally surrender my soul unto you.

“WHOEVER YOU OBEY IS THE CONTROLLER OF YOUR SOUL”

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 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.
