EVALUATION

  EVALUATION 2 Corinthians 13:1-10 Devotional:- “Examine and test and evaluate your own selves to see whether you are holding to your faith and showing the proper fruits of it. Test and prove yourselves [not Christ]. Do you not yourselves realize and know [thoroughly by an ever-increasing experience] that Jesus Christ is in you-unless you are [counterfeits] disapproved on trial and rejected?” (V.5)AMPC At such a time like this every one who desires to fulfill their destiny in life should evaluate themselves. Since life is about fulfilling your purpose, goal or destiny, it therefore becomes possible to measure where you are in the race of your life. The enemy often tries to make this time a period of sorrow for so many people. They will look back and see their poor performances. This will then make them break down to sorrow. But this is a negative approach to evaluation. Evaluation is to help you look critically into your state of achievement in the year. It helps you discover where...

JUSTIFICATION

JUSTIFICATION

Scripture Reading: Romans 3:21-26
Devotional:- “But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets,” (V. 24)

    To be justified is to be declared just or righteous before God. The word justification is a legal term used for someone that was first suspected, arrested and accused as an offender (Romans 3:23). When the court session and the judge is sited, they will attempt on go deeper into the case of the accused.

After going through all the relevant evidences that the accused person did not commit that said of fence, the judge now declare the accused justified. That he is free and can no longer be accused of committing the crime. Our accuser before God is devil (Revelation 12:7-10). Jesus is our advocate, our lawyer who stood in the gap for us before God (1 John 2:1). It is Jesus that pays His life as a ransom for our life. He took all our accusation to the cross and cancelled them totally by His blood (Colossians 2:14).  He disarms the power accusing us and justified us. (Colossians 2:15).

Now we are justified freely by faith. We have been made to be at peace with God through Jesus (Romans 5:1). We have been adopted into the beloved of God through Christ Jesus (Galatians 4:4-5). This is the reason we have the right to put on the nature and the righteousness of our father through Christ Jesus. Now, we are free before God. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me never to be entangled by sin anymore.

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.

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.
