PRETENDING

  PRETENDING Proverbs 13:1-10 Devotional:- “There is one who makes himself rich, yet has nothing; And one who makes himself poor, yet has great riches” (v.7) NKJV One other instrument of the devil to steal people’s joy is to fill their hearts with pretence. To pretend is to behave or talk like, or put yourself in a status, that you are not. It is to use what you don’t have to impress people who do not like you. It is to give people a false impression about you. This always results in a show of shame and sorrow. In the scripture we read today, there is the picture of a poor man who pretended to be rich. Who is he deceiving? Today you will see some people borrowing to spray at a party. Some will arrive at a beer parlour and ask everybody to be served, while at home, there is no food, and children's school fees are yet to be paid. Some are known to be very good outside to their secretaries, receptionists and the like, while at home they don’t have any credibility (Proverbs 12:9, Job 2...

SOVEREIGN

SOVEREIGN

1 John 4:1-6
Devotional:- “You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world” (V. 4)

    Our God is a Sovereign God and His Spirit is a sovereign Spirit. That is why by the Spirit of God you can cast out other spirits. This is possible because the Holy Spirit is the supreme of all spirit. That is why you must know that with the Holy Spirit in you, no other spirit must intimidate you.

The word of God says “the Holy Spirit is greater than the Spirit in the world. The word of God says He that is from above is above all (John 3:31). Understanding this will put you in command wherever you are.

You become a threat to any spirit that is not of God because, you carry the Holy Spirit. You can destroy the activities of the world of darkness by acting by the leading of the Holy Spirit (James 4:7, 1 John 3:8). If you find any intimidating experience just ask the Holy Spirit for what to do and the other spirit will submit. When you are submissive to the leading of the Holy Spirit other spirit will be submission to you (Matthew 8:9, James 4:7). This is how you can fulfil your mandate of dominion. Just understand that everyone is acting by a spirit, but you are operating from above all (John 3:31). Peace

PRAYER: Holy Spirit, help me to always submit to you that others may submit to me.

“WHO YOU ARE SUBMITTING TO DETERMINES WHO WILL SUBMIT TO YOU”

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.

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.
