  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...

BECOMING INTELLIGENT

Isaiah 11:1-5
Devotional:- “The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord” (v. 2) NKJV

    The world today like ever is in need of men and women of solution like Joseph and Daniel. Industrial revolution in the western world is a product of the demonstration of intelligence by the spirit. To be intelligent is to be able to think through to brilliant solution (1 Corinthians 2:11) It is the ability to acquire applicable knowledge. It is to have understanding of a matter.

Men like Joseph, Solomon and Daniel by the help of the Holy Spirit and their gifts were able to interpret dreams (Genesis 41:26-36). They were able to discern solution to complex situations (1 Kings 3:16-28). They were able to tell the king his forgotten dream and interpreted it (Daniel 2:14-48). They were highly needed to be part of government in the land of slavery. Joseph reign in Egypt as the Prime minister by the Spirit of the Lord (Genesis 41:38). Daniel ruled in Babylon for several years (Daniel 5:11-12). He and his friends became ten times better than all by the Holy Spirit (Daniel 1:20-21)

Friend, the same Holy Spirit is in you. All you need to do is to create quality relationship with the Holy Spirit for intelligent thoughts. Build your mind up to be intelligent by studying books of intelligent men (Daniel 2:17-19; Acts 6:3). Regularly consult the Holy Spirit in you for light and solutions (Proverbs 3:5-6). You will soon be recommended to rule. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, promote me by your Spirit to be intelligent

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 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.
