DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

YOUR TIME

Ephesians 5:15-21
Dev: “redeeming the time, because the days are evil.”  (v. 16)

    We need to remember this always that our time on earth is an investment to our life. Our time seems to always be there. There is tendency to assume that we will always have all the time and forget to manage effectively.

Time is one of God's investment that everyone have equally. No one is richer than anyone in time. The difference in what we get with time is determined by what we do with time. Man can invest time by using it for unprofitable ventures. Whenever we invest our time profitably time we will harvest the profit over the time (Ecclesiastes 11:1).

To redeem the time is to buy it back. This is by investing into a profitable venture profitably. It is by doing what will profit us over time. This is taking every opportunity that comes our ways serious to make the best of it. That way the time in the past can be regained by the grace of God (Joel 2:25). The word of God says the days are evil. I.e. these are day of great challenges. So make up your mind to get the best of your time. Remember you will give account. Peace.

PRAYER- Lord give me the grace to make the best use of my time.

“DOING NOTHING WITH TIME IS WASTING THE TIME”

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
