  HOW REAL SERVANTS ACT Mark 10:35-45 Devotional:- “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (V. 43).   The world defines greatness in terms of power, possessions, prestige and position but God determined your greatness by how many people you serve. This is quite contrary to the world view. Jesus called Himself servant and to be like Him is to be a servant. That is why it is so important to have a servant’s heart. God often test our heart by asking us to serve even outside our shape or area of interest. Your priority area of service should be in your area of shape, but God could demand for your service wherever needed. Looking at how a servant act is important because one could serve in a church for years and not be a real servant. Real servants make themselves available to serve. If you only serve when it is convenient, then you are not a good servant (2 Timothy 2:4). Real servants pay attention to needs, always lo...

IN CHRIST  

Scripture Reading: Colossians 3:11 
Devotional:- “For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God” (V3)NKJV

    When the Bible says we are in Christ, it means, we are putting on the nature of Christ Jesus. This demands a strong commitment on our side to abide in Him. To live in Christ is to be committed to do His will in all that we do. When we become committed to be in Christ, the Holy Spirit is always available to help us. 

God’s word says, as children of the living God, our life is hidden in Christ in God. This is putting on Christ. This is wearing the righteousness nature of God. When we abide in Him, then anytime God sees us, He doesn’t see our human nature that is not qualify to stand before Him, rather He see His nature (His righteousness). That is why He can hear our prayers and our worship. 

In the other way, the righteousness of God makes devil and his host not to touch us (Job 1:8-10). This is because when they see us, they see Jesus and not us. That is why your life is untouchable for the devil (Zechariah 2:5). This is the reason you must be committed to a life of righteousness. It is too dangerous to be out of Christ. Keep your consistency with Christ and your life will be preserved here and eternity. Peace 

PRAYER: Lord, help me not to be out of you.

“TO BE IN CHRIST IS TO BE OUT OF REACH OF THE ENEMY”

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). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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

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.
