JOYFUL COMPANION

  JOYFUL COMPANION  Luke 1:37-45 Devotional:- “For indeed, as soon as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy” (v.44) NKJV We must know that sooner or later, we will always look like the people we are moving with. God’s word says, he that walks with the wise shall be wise and the companion of fools shall be destroyed (Proverbs 13:20). This means that what we gain from the surroundings of our associates has a very strong influence upon our life. If a man walks with people who don’t know or appreciate joy, he may not also experience joy. We read about the visitation of Mary to Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist. Since two of them carry unique children of divine significance, they both have the Spirit of God in them. This brings about a joyful effect. As soon as Elizabeth heard the voice of Mary, the baby leaped for joy. You therefore need to understand that the richest place you need to seek to be is where God’s children are gathe...

ETERNAL SPIRIT

ETERNAL SPIRIT

Hebrews 9:11-15
Devotional:- “how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?“ (V. 14)

    The Holy Spirit is eternal. That is, He has been before any other spirit existed and He will continue to be, when there is no other Spirit. This means He is older and greater than any other spirit in existence. He is the Spirit of the eternal God who has been in existence in the dateless past and will continue to be when there will be no more time or calendar.

The Holy Spirit is the giver of eternal life (John 6:53-54) only those who are baptized in the Holy Spirit have eternal life. Eternal life is God's kind of life. There are animal lives, and there are human lives and there is God’s life. The God’s kind of life is what is referred to as eternal life. That is why Jesus offered himself through the eternal Spirit. Only the eternal Spirit can defile death and make a man to be back to life (Romans 8:11). This is because eternal life can not be terminated by death.

Friend, without the Holy Spirit, rapture or resurrection to go with Christ will be impossible. That is why you can't just play with the issue of the Holy Spirit the giver of eternal life (John 7:37-39, John 3:16) Let him rule over your heart and eternal life will begin with you from now till eternity. Peace!

Prayer: Holy Spirit, help me never to miss your eternal life

“IF THE HOLY SPIRIT RAISES JESUS FROM THE DEAD, HE WILL RAISE YOU UP AT THE TRUMPET”

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.

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.
