  APPRECIATION Psalm 92:1-10 Devotional:- “It is good to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High” (v.1) NKJV It is in the habit of most people that when they are expecting something from God, they will do everything possible to gain His favour. But as soon as it is done, that thing loses value to them. So, people only value what they don’t have. This sometimes does not make us have a heart of gratitude to God. We will always promise to give thanks, but as soon as we receive our expectations, some will forget to give thanks. Many do not know that the opportunity or privilege that is available to them is what qualifies them for what they are expecting. But they look down on this because their expectations have not been met. Your health is more important than travelling abroad. The breath of life you enjoy is far more valuable than the car or job you are expecting. In fact, this qualifies you for those things. Friend, no matter what God has done for you,...

WORSHIP

John 4:19-26
Devotional:- “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth" (v. 24) NKJV

    For a believer to relate more and more closely with the Holy Spirit, one of the avenue that is vital is worship God. Since God is a spirit, then, you can only worship Him in the spirit. Worship is therefore only possible when we learn to allow the Holy Spirit to lead us to the father.

To worship God in spirit and in truth demands that we first understand the truth about God. The truth about God is what the Bible says about Him, because, the word of God is truth (John 17:17). The word of God tells us that God is the almighty God (Genesis-8:1). He is the God of glory (Acts 7:2). He is the father of light (James1:17). He is a wonderful and marvellous God. He is the King of kings and Lord of lords. He is the everlasting father (Isaiah 9:6; Revelation 17:14) etc. This truth then forms the basis on which you imagine God in your spirit as you behold Him with the eye of your spirit man.

Every time you worship God in spirit and truth, if you draw close to Him and He will draw close to you (Psalm 100:4, James 4:8). This makes your relationship with Him more cordial. Peace!

PRAYER: Holy Spirit, teach me to worship the father in truth

“THE VALUE YOU GIVE IN WORSHIP IS THE VALUE YOU GET”

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.
