MATURE CLASS

  MATURE CLASS I Corinthians 13:9-13 Devotional:- “When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things” (v.11) NLT I have observed that it is not everyone that can truly love. This is because it is a character for a person in a class. I have seen some men taking pride in beating their wives. I have heard many women proudly saying that they cannot stay under any man. And they do not feel ashamed that at their age, they couldn’t manage a home. The truth is that, if you cannot rise and manage a home, it is a sign that you cannot manage a greater thing that God would have loved to give to you (1 Timothy 3:5). When people give excuses of the reason why they cannot love, you will easily recognise their immaturity. Friend, you should feel ashamed if there is always noise of a fight coming from your apartment. And so many times, people, including the pagans, often come around to judge you and people, bashing and mocking...

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.

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.
