SUBMIT TO HIM

  SUBMIT TO HIM John 14:12-24  “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) NKJV   Sometimes on the platform of love, there is nothing men cannot offer to one another. If you truly love a man you will not want to reject or disobey him. You will want to do as much as it is in your capacity. You will not want to turn him down. Can you imagine how strictly you want to keep to an appointment with a loved one? If we have attached so much importance to responding to our lover, how much more God. If you truly love God it will be natural for you to submit to His will. You will not need to argue or ask too many questions. It will be a pleasure submitting to His will. Jesus said in the scripture we read today, if anyone loves me he will keep my words. In other word he will submit or obey my word. Then the reward here is that the father will also love such one i...

MONEY SUCCESS

MONEY SUCCESS

Luke 12:13-21
Devotional:- "And He said to them, “Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses.” (V. 15)

    Because of the leadership failure in this part of the world, success has been redefined as having money and materials. This is because what man cannot access will become his idol if he is not careful. So to us here, the moment you have a car or house you are successful not minding how you got it or what you use it for because many cannot afford it. 

But this does not amount to success. A man can be in his own house and be hungry and be in great sorrows of lack. This wrong definition of success has turned many to fraudsters. And those who can’t do that have to live with the frustrated feeling of failure.

Friend, please deliver yourself from this trouble. Please get to know that true success is fulfilling what God sends you to do on earth. If success is by our definition then Jesus would have been a failure. Because he never rent a house (Matthew 8:20), he never had an automobile of his days (Mark 11:1-3). His assignment couldn’t even allow him to get married or have children. And he died at 30 years of age but who else is as successful as Jesus in this world? Because, He fulfilled his purpose for living. Discover your own purpose and pursue it and you will be fulfilled. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, lead me to my true success.

“Money success is the mistake of this generation to miserable life”

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.

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.
