OVERFLOWING PROSPERITY

  OVERFLOWING PROSPERITY Zechariah 1:13-21 Devotional:- “Again proclaim, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts: "My cities shall again spread out through prosperity; The LORD will again comfort Zion, And will again choose Jerusalem'"” (V.17) NKJV At the end of the year, God intends to prosper and supply you with great and pleasant riches (Psalms 65:11). When someone is not prospering in life, everything about him will look odd. When a person is not prosperous, there are so many things responsible. It might be that he is not working in God’s knowledge and understanding; it could also be that he is not working in God’s covenant. This is paying your tithe, offering, blessing the poor, and taking care of your parent, children and men of God. It could also be that he is not faithful to his staff. Such disobedience makes God remove man’s prosperity and set a devourer to his life till he learn his lesson (Joel 2:25, Haggai 1:6-11). But the word of God is powerful, sharper tha...

BOLDNESS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

BOLDNESS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS  

Proverbs 28:1-7
Devotional:- "The wicked flee when no one pursues but the righteous are as bold as a lion". (V. 1)

  No atom of weakness can overcome the devil. Unrighteousness is his attitude and so cannot confront him (1 John 3:8). It is also important that you realise that we are not fighting against flesh and blood but against forces of wickedness. That is why you cannot afford to be a weak Christian. He who toys with sin will soon face disgrace, so beware. One of the strength you need to put on for victory as a Christian is the boldness of righteousness. God’s word calls it the breastplate of righteousness. This is a strange level of confidence; the scripture says the righteous is as bold as a lion.

The boldness of righteousness is in two dimensions. The first is as a product of faith in God’s word that claims the righteousness which is given to us by God through Jesus Christ. This is not by your own making. God’s word says it is not of works but faith (Romans 3:1-26, 2 Corinthians 5:20). No man can be so right with God, you must learn to put on His righteousness always, and then you are qualified. The second is from obedience to the word of God. When you obey God’s commandment you are entitled to God’s covenant reward (Deuteronomy 28:1).

As a child of God this righteousness gives you strange boldness that no devil can wait for. Arise in this light and be courageous to win

Prayer: Lord, cast on me the breastplate of righteousness

“The level of your strength is known by your Courage”

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.

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.

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.
