  KINDNESS Hebrews 13:1-9 Devotional:- “Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels” (v.2) NKJV The season we are in is a season of strangers, and close friends will come to locate you. You will find many in need of your assistance. God’s words teach us to be of assistance to such people. Even though we live in a very dangerous and delicate world, where so many unbelievable atrocities have been committed. Yet it does not mean we should completely neglect the instruction of this part of the scripture. We only need to obey God with wisdom. We are not to turn people away sharply; we only need to learn to discern what kind of people are coming around us. We also need to be wise not to disclose or open our hidden places to strangers. But I need to let you know that God honour those who honour strangers. If you read the bible, you will discover God has a special interest in widows, orphans and strangers. So when you give attention to the...

GRIEVE NOT

Ephesians 4:25-32
Devotional:- “And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption” (v. 30) 

    Every believer need to take this precaution regularly not to grieve the Holy Spirit. We should always fear the Lord (Proverbs 1:7). We should realize that we are highly privilege to have the Holy Spirit dwell in us (2 Corinthians 4:7). Holy Spirit can only dwell in us because we have dedicated our lives to God. Now that He dwells in us, we have become the temple of God (1 Corinthians 3:16-17). Remember God is a jealous God.

To grieve the Holy Spirit is to disobey His order repeatedly. It is to frankly look down on His way and wisdom. It is to honour the way of men and of the word and disrespect the way of God. These and more are what we do to grieve the Holy Spirit.

When a man grieves the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will be inactive in the man. The Holy Spirit will no longer be part of his decisions anymore. This is what happens when we observe we are weak in the spirit or we are not flowing in the spirit (Psalms 51:10-12). When you observe this, please cry to God for mercy and restoration. He will have mercy on you when you repent. And there shall be restoration. Peace!

PRAYER: Holy Spirit, restore my relationship with you today

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.
