  STRENGTH Nehemiah 8:4-12 Devotional:- “Then he said to them, "Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength”” (v. 10) NKJV As emotional beings, it is important that we come to the understanding that when we are in joy, our strength will be doubled. is joy that promotes both mental and physical strength. No matter how physically strong a man is, when he is in sorrow, he is weak; he can be defeated. Sorrow decomposes the cells in our muscles from being able to function together. When God’s people were given the grace to rebuild the falling wall of Jerusalem, they all came together in the strength of the Lord to build. During this time, the law of the Lord was brought and was read to them, and they now discovered what brought their ruin. This caused so much sorrow, and the people began to weep. But Nehemiah, a man of understanding who knew...

FAILURE FROM THE INSIDE

FAILURE FROM THE INSIDE

Matthew 26:14-16 NKJV
Devotional:- and said, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver Him to you?” And they counted out to him thirty pieces of silver. (V. 15)

    It is important you come to know that if a man is not successful in his heart he cannot be successful in this world. It is first in the heart then it will manifest outside. The greatest frustration of this world is people trying to achieve outside what they are not inside. If a man does not have the faith for success in his heart, no matter what he has he will feel like a failure. So he will desire for more, thinking by getting more he will be successful.

Judas Iscariot was the treasurer of the ministry of Jesus. The Bible told us he used to steal from the purse. But that was not enough he still went ahead demanding for money to betray Jesus. He never felt successful. He always feels he needs more till he killed himself (Matthew 27:3-10).

Friend, success is not what you have but what but who you are. If you are not a success you cannot attain it. Whatever you gather will escape because your heart is not up to it. Stealing or embezzling is because people are failure in their heart (Matthew 6:25-27). Successful people command success because it is from within. So it is first inside then outside. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, give me a heart of success

“A heart of failure will spend eternity looking for success”.

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.

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.
