  UNDERSTANDING YOUR SHAPE Jeremiah 1:4-12 Devotional:- “I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.” (V.5 NLT) As a people crated to serve the Lord, God has design each of us in a unique way to be able to serve Him. We are so uniquely created that no one can find your duplicate. If you don’t contribute your part to the body of Christ God will make a replacement. (Act 1:20).  Look at the meaning of your shape the letter “A” represents your SPECIAL ABILITY. These are special abilities and talents given to you from birth. It is important we come to know that all our special abilities come from God.(Rom 12:6 ). So many people often give excuses of not having any ability to serve God but research shows that each of us has variety of 500 to 700 abilities. You are able to take thousands of decision in a second and more so you are loaded with special abilities. Please know that every abilit...

FEELING CONDEMNED

FEELING CONDEMNED

Romans 8:1-5
Devotional:- "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit". (V. 1)

    What some people call humility is equal to self-destruction. Many have problem differentiating between humility and self-humiliation. What some take for been sober is just like self-defamation. They do not only condemn themselves they also go on the cross for their own sin.

Even Jesus suffered on the cross and it was over but their case have been an endless self-crucifixion and they never see themselves qualified to be free.

Jesus came condemned and crucified that we may not suffer. As many of us that have the life of Jesus in our life, we are no more to be under the punishment of condemnation. All that is important is that we know that submission to God is to allow Him to direct our ways. In other word we take instructions before taking steps. It is also important that whenever the Holy Spirit convicts us of an unrighteous act, we repent of it and confess it to God and that is all (1 John 1:7-10). But to carry it on and on is to be willing to die for your sin. You are saying the death of Jesus is not enough for you and you want to put your life on the cross with Jesus. Please learn to live by faith in God’s word and you shall be free.

Prayer: Lord, help me to learn to take forgiveness by faith.

“Self-condemnation is a sin of self-crucifixion”.

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 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.
