  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...

PURIFIER

Scripture Reading: Malachi 3:1-7
Devotional:- “He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi, And purge them as gold and silver, That they may offer to the LORD An offering in righteousness” (v. 3) NKJV

    As a child of God who is focused on reigning eternally with Jesus, it is important you focus on the purification ministry of the Holy Spirit (Luke 3:16-17). This is where the church today is missing out. That is the reason the church is becoming worldly. The purifying ministry of the Holy Spirit is what take a believer through a refining process to become holy before the Lord.

Each of us as a believer must have quality fellowshipping with the Holy Spirit. This is not only in terms of worship, but also in asking Him to purge our heart of all dirt. John the Baptist says “he will thoroughly clean out his threshing floor (Luke 3:16). This he did with unquenchable fire of the Holy Spirit.

There are some sinful attitudes that stick to our lives. Such need the purifying ministry of the Holy Spirit. That is why we are baptized with the Holy Spirit and fire. Always ask that the Holy Spirit purge and purify you by His fire. This is when your service or offering can be acceptable to Him (Romans 12:1). And He will make you holy. Peace

PRAYER: Holy Spirit purge me of all sinful thoughts and acts

“A GOLD NOT PURIFIES WILL LACK THE GLORY”

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.

COURAGE

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.
