  BELIEVE HIM 2 Chronicle 20:15-25  Devotional:- “So they rose early in the morning and went out into the Wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Hear me, O Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem: Believe in the LORD your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper”” (V.20) NKJV I have heard some spouse saying, “I don’t believe my partner”. But I know that this is a statement of ignorance. They do not know that it is the same thing as saying that “I do not love my partner.” The truth is that you cannot enjoy the love of a man you don’t believe in. Since you don’t have to love only those who love you (Matthew 5:43-48). Then you don’t have to wait until someone is perfect to believe him at his level. This is will because it is what you believe about your partner that keep seeing. If you believe that a man or woman will continue to be bad then they will be what you believe (Matthew 9:29). So you better change your...

PUTTING ON

Ephesians 4:17-24
Devotional:- "and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness". (V. 24) NKJV

    When you are putting off the sinful nature, it is important we all labour to put on the nature of Christ. This is when we are Christians.  To put on means you deliberately allow yourself to be exposed to information that builds in you the new nature

This is by giving yourself to the studying of the word of God. It is by fellowshipping with God and His people. It is by surrounding yourself with people and atmosphere that promotes this nature of Christ. That is why the fellowship of the children of God is so vital (Psalms 84:7). By so doing you will be developing in Christlikeness. You need to truly give up on self. This does not mean giving up on your vision, it is God that gives vision but self promotes ambition.

Friend, to allow Christ to live in you, then you must put on his nature that is when the fruits of righteousness will start to reflect in you. That is when you will no longer struggle to please God. Put on love, peace and joy in righteousness and holiness. Peace

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to put on the nature of Christ.

“What you are putting on is what people see in you”

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 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.
