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 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”

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).

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.
