TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” (V. 17) NLT  God has a purpose behind every problem. God depends more on circumstances to grow our character than reading the Bible; this is because we have challenging circumstances twenty four seven. The word of God made us to see challenges in our life as normal (1 Peter 4:18). Your deepest expression of worship is mostly in the darkest days. It is during suffering that we learn to pray our most authentic, heart-felt and honest prayers to God (James 5:16). God would have kept Jeremiah from the throne to the pit, Joseph from been thrown into the jail, Paul from been shipwrecked or the three Hebrew from been thrown into the fire but he left those problems to himself. You will never know that God is all you need until God is all you have.  Everything that happens to you has spir...

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”
