DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES

DISTANCING FROM THE SCRIPTURES Deuteronomy 8:1-11 Devotional:- “To teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD” (v.3) NIV      The word of God is the bank of our strength in God. The word of God is the strength of God (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 4:12). Through the word, God had done all He had done. God’s word says, without Him, nothing else was created (John 1:3). When a man, therefore, distances himself from the Word of God, such is distancing himself from his source, He will lack the strength of God.

LOVING THE LORD

LOVING THE LORD 

JOHN 14:19-24
Devotional:-''Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him". (V. 23).

    It is important that we as believers truly love the Lord. It is only those who love the Lord that will enjoy the best of God. Do not be part of Christians who handles the things of God carelessly. No one can stay at a distance and enjoy the best of relationship. Therefore, you truly need to grow your love for God if you are His child. God's word says the way to demonstrate our love for Him is to be obedient to His word. You must not love anything in this world more than God (1 John 2:15). When it comes to obeying His instructions, you have no choice. When it comes to doing God's assignment, you have no option.

If you have not grown up in the Lord to this level, you are considered a baby and a lukewarm Christian before the Lord (Rev. 3:16). It is only those who love Him that can enjoy His manifest presence. They are the ones who can enjoy the best of God. (Isaiah 1:19-20). They are the ones that have strong hope in Christ (Romans 8: 28-30). It is only those who truly love Him that will have greater harvest for their giving. Ask God for a heart of love for Him and He will give you.

Prayer: Lord, give me a true heart of love for you.

“UNTIL YOU TRULY LOVE GOD YOU CANNOT ACCESS THE REALM OF HIS GLORY"

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
