PURSUE PEACE Hebrews 12:12-17 Devotional:- “Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:” (v.14) NKJV Some people don’t know that a peaceful relationship is in their best interest. They do not know that it is ignorance to be wicked and be in conflict with others. Little do most people know that a peaceful relationship is basically good for their health and well-being. That is why a peaceful man will live long in health. God’s word teaches us today to strive to attain peace in all our relationships with others. The Bible doesn’t say we should try to do that, but it says we should strive. This is because it may not be easy. Man, as a social and emotional being, cannot help but relate with others. We often finds constraints in doing so because of our differences, which can lead us to offend one another; we often find it tough with some people. Notwithstanding that, the Bible commands us to pursue peace with everyone so that we don’t block our access ...

EXALTATION

EXALTATION

Scripture Reading: Psalms 89:14-21
Devotional:- “In Your name they rejoice all day long, And in Your righteousness they are exalted” (V.16)

   

 Part of the blessings of living in the righteousness of God is promotion. This happens naturally and supernaturally. The word of God says “righteousness exalts and sin only bring reproach to people’s life (Proverbs 14:34).  If a righteous man is working anywhere, his faithfulness and loyalty will make him gain attention (Luke 16:10-12). When considering the one to be put in charge, common sense will put the faithful in office.

The eyes of the Lord Is on the righteous to promote him (1 Samuel 16:1). Both God and man will seek to promote the righteous. This is enough to let you know that the life of righteousness is better. The word around us does not know this but you should.

If you find reproach in your life as a kingdom citizen, then you need to consciously be clothed with the righteousness of Christ by faith. You need to know that the price paid for your redemption and righteousness is great and grievous. So you will need to create time to address it with the Lord in prayer. It is ignorance that hinders our portions (Hosea 4:6). And your promotion shall come. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, terminate reproach in my life and establish me at the top.

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.
