  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...

HE SPEAKS

Mark 13:9-13
Devotional:- “He answered and said to them, "Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given” (V. 11)

    It is always beautiful when the Holy Spirit speaks to us. He is a speaking Spirit. Every time you ask, the Holy Spirit speaks back to you. That why it is important we recognize how He speaks. It is important we recognize His vocabulary and His ways of speaking.

When the Holy Spirit speaks, He does not speak contrary to the word of God (John 16:13). When He speaks to us, our heart will gain peace, because there is an agreement between our spirit and what the Holy Spirit speaks. (Psalms 85:8). When the Holy Spirit speaks to us, there will be a witness to it. God will always use another way to confirm His word (2 Corinthians 13:1).

All these are evidences of His voice. Note that His words are always spoken to yours spirit man. So it does not sound audible. It comes in form of a thought voice that breaks into your thought. Keep asking Him and He will keep answering you. He will always direct you to the path of peace and prosperity. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, teach me to hear when You speak to me.

“THE VOICE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE ENERGY OF THE SPIRIT”

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).

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.
