  SONGS OF LOVE Isaiah 54:1-10 Devotional:- “"Sing, O barren, You who have not borne! Break forth into singing, and cry aloud, You who have not labored with child! For more are the children of the desolate Than the children of the married woman," says the LORD.” (V.1) NKJV Most people don’t appreciate the place of singing in love relationship. We often think it is the affair of children to sing to one another. But it is until you try it one day that you will have a great fun between you and your spouse as you sing. That is why the whole Song of Solomon is song of love. If you desire to enjoy the best of Gods love you will have to learn quite a lost of songs. God love songs. It is one of the reasons David and many singers won the heart of God. He even said we should sing a new song to the Lord (Psalms 96:1; Ephesians 5:19). But this is not just singing but worshipping Him. You may not be able to enjoy God’s love to the peak until you learn how to effectively worship Him. This ...

SHOW OFF

Matthew 6:5-8.
Devotional:- “And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward". (V. 5)

    Most of the events that brings snare to our soul and water us down are product of show off. These are what we do to please people or to demonstrate that we are there.

To show means you are pretending to be what you are not (Proverbs 13:7). Many people have this attitude and this will bring their frustrations. Since the truth will always prevail, the people you are pretending to, will soon see you as you are. This can bring anyone to shame. There is no reason to borrow dress for an occasion. You will not be comfortable when you buy a dress on credit and you have not paid and you are demonstrating with it in the face of the seller.

Jesus teaches us to be humble and be sincere people. Many will vow in the public what they cannot afford and this will bring shame to their life. See, your heart is fragile; don't ever embark on anything that is not true (Proverbs 4:23). In other word, do your search properly before embarking on any venture.  Always be sincere to yourself. If you ridicule yourself before people, you may not find it easy to forgive yourself. Please always be sincere with yourself. Then you will keep your heart from frustration and live in joy. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from show off spirit.

 “Showing off is displaying what you are not to the people who don't need you”

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.
