RIGHTEOUSNESS

  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...

THE HOLY SPIRIT

1 John 5:6-13
Devotional:- “For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one” (V. 7)

    The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God released into man by the Father through the Son to make God’s life out of man (John 14:16). He is not just one of the spirits around but the third person of the God head. God is triune in nature and He made man to be triune in nature too. At different dispensation God has made Himself known to man in three different dimensions, yet, the three always work together.

In the Old Testament, it was God the Father Himself that was manifested to Moses. Sometimes through the ministry of angel (Exodus 3:4-6). In the New Testament books of the gospel, God manifested Himself as the Son (Hebrews 1:1-2). But from the Acts of the Apostles, He manifested Himself as the Holy Spirit.

You therefore need to know that you cannot claim to know God when the Spirit of God is not at work in you (Romans 8:9-14). Many are deceived by the devil, thinking that they are Christians because they go to church (Matthew 7:21-23). You need to seek to have quality relationship with the Holy Spirit, so that you will not miss God eternally. Peace

PRAYER: Holy Spirit, help me to know you afresh.

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.
