  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

GOD IN US

GOD IN US

1 Corinthians 3:9-17
Devotional:- “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?”  (V. 16)

   It is very important that you as a Spirit filled believer get to know that God is in you. The Holy Spirit has been given to us to abide in us (John 14:16). Since the day you welcome Jesus into your life, and He came in, the Holy Spirit has been at work in you (1 Corinthians 12:3). When a believer is baptized with the Holy Spirit, He comes in His fullness to indwell. That is why the Holy Spirit is God in us.

It therefore become an issue that needs to be queried because if God be in you, why do you now go through all kinds of pain? This is simply because you have not given Him His place in your life. You have not allowed Him to function in you. He does many times participated in your lives affairs, but you did not even know because you do not know Him. If He is allowed consciously, you will be a thousand times different.

To start enjoying the Holy Spirit at work in you demands that you start to fellowship with Him. Create time to worship the Father regularly in the Spirit (John 4:24). Always communicate with Him by asking for His help and direction (John 14:16). Then, you will start to see His power at work in you and with you. Peace.

PRAYER: Holy Spirit, help me to be revived by relating with you.

“GOD IN YOU IS THE HOPE OF GREATNESS”

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 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.
