HE NEVER CONDEMNS

  HE NEVER CONDEMNS John 8:1-11  Devotional:- “She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more”” (V. 11) NKJV One of the tricks the devil often used against man is to make us feel condemned. To be condemned is a feeling of self-judgment. It is the act of judging oneself to death when God has not. A man with condemnation cannot be bold or courageous. He cannot exercise faith. He cannot take a risk and so cannot find it easy to succeed. The truth is that God does not condemn man. So it is like man to feel condemned, and it is the handiwork of the devil. It was said about Jesus, “for God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but that through Him might be saved” (John 3:17).  God has appointed Jesus to judge the earth. But that is not now. Condemnation is a feeling that one has been written off and is not worthy of living anymore. The only people who will face God’s final condemnation are those who refused to...

SUBMIT TO GOD

SUBMIT TO GOD

James 4:7-10
Devotional:- "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you". (V. 7)

    God made man as a free moral agent but that was because he wants us to voluntarily submit to Him. To submit is to make your life a Sub under His mission. This means to make Him your controller. To make His mission your mission for life. To allow Him be the supreme over your life. It is to follow God’s way as your vision.

Submission is best done willingly not out of fear or force, but out of love. The word submission is best pronounced as surrender. To be able to surrender your life to God you must trust that he will not fail you (Romans 9:33). To be able to totally surrender to God you need to admit that you have limitations in other words there are things you cannot do for yourself. That is why you will need His strength in many parts of your life (Philippians 4:13).

Friend, Christians are not those who struggle with God or with his word. They are those who submit or surrender to Him. Christians don’t argue the word of God but obey it. Christians don’t live in fear; they live by trust in the faithfulness of God. They know their life is not theirs anymore; they use it in submission to God (Matthew 26:39). The Lord will give you grace.

 Prayer: Lord, help me to live in submission to you always.

 “You would not be able to handle God’s authority if you don’t submit to Him”.

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.
