ACCEPT HIM

  ACCEPT HIM  John 1:1-12 “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:“ (V.12) NKJV It will be completely out of place for a woman to haven married to a man and later begin to say He is not acceptable to her. God does not encourage such excuse. Even though these do happen to some people but it is not the will of God. Many of such got married and ignorantly allowed their love to be blind, some moments after marriage the love will regain it full sight. That is why I tell people, it is foolish love that is blind. Open your two eyes very well. No matter how the nose, mouth, or leg of the sister or the brother now looks like, what God join together let no mouth or nose put asunder. The only solution is they should accept one another as they are, then resume into the responsibility of influencing and building each other (Proverbs 14:1). So also as children of God, we must accept or receive God just the way He is...

LOVE FIRST

LOVE FIRST

Matthew 22:34-40
Devotional:- "This is the first and great commandment".  (V.38)

    Often time when we are deciding on what to do, we consider our benefits first. We quickly think in our heart what is in this for me? (1 Samuel 17:26). Thank God David was not asking this question for selfish reason. We therefore need to realize that the first to be considered is not yourself but love first.

Jesus said, love is the first in all God's commandment, so if you and I are considering our steps it should be love first. If we are considering our action, the first thing to consider is love. If we are reacting to any issue we should consider love first. If you are to step into any assignments, the first step is love.

To be able to live with love first principle, you must realize it is talking about God first (Matthew 6:33; John 21:15). This is because God is love (1 John 4:7-8). You need to realize that we are commanded to put love first because it is the first commandment. God made it to be the first commandment so that we will consider love first in all situations. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always choose love first in all things 

“When love is first, God is first”

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.
