  SPECIAL CHILDREN Proverbs 23:15-25  Devotional:- “Do not let your heart envy sinners, But be zealous for the fear of the LORD all the day” (V.17) NKJV Today, the lives of children in most nations are becoming a great trouble. Many parents have lost control of their children. But in the midst of these hopeless situations of the future generation, yet some children allow the word of God to rule their lives, such children have the fear of God in them. These are children who keep a wise heart and who have learnt the right use of their lips. Who don’t open their lip to speak just anything but the truth and wisdom (Proverbs 23:16). These are children who don’t envy the way of sin, nor do they get themselves involved in the sinful nature of this generation. Rather, they fear the Lord, and this affects everything they do (Proverbs 23:17). Most of the youths of this day go into untimely relationships and cheating everywhere because of fear of failure and fear of tomorrow. But these p...

OVERCOMING SIN

OVERCOMING SIN

Romans 6:5-18
Devotional:- “For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace” (v. 14) NKJV

    Many people today are facing the challenges of how to overcome sin in their lives. We have also many others who willingly submit to the rule of sin regularly. But the truth is that many know the evil and wicked consequences of sin. For example we all know that sexual sin endangers our health and lives. Also, every bad habit is intending to make us a failure. Yet many will not stop committing them and so many lives and destinies have been destroyed.

If a man will ever overcome the power of sin, he needs to first realize the love God has for him. There is need for us to know that God loves us and only hates our sins. If we repent of our sins He will forgive us (1 John 1:7-9). He is not interested in the death of a sinner but that he repents and be saved (Ezekiel 18:23). Sin brings us under condemnation and fear but the love of God sets us free from the bondages of sin.

We also need to know that Jesus came to set us free from the power of sin and death (1 John 3:8; Romans 8:2). He destroyed the power of sin on the cross of Calvary. So sin has no power to force us to obey it anymore. The throne of sin is destroyed and the grace of righteousness of God reign over our lives. So the power to say NO is given to us.

You will realize that when you sin as a believer, you willingly do it, not as if you can't control yourself. So is every genuinely saved believer. Don’t let that sin destroy your health and success. Refuse it, glorious destiny awaits you. Don't exchange it with sin. You have authority over sin, it will not see your end but you will see its end in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, thank you because you've made me strong enough to overcome sin.

“In sin lies failure and death”

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.
