But do you know that honour is better than shame? When some people are invited to occasion, oftentimes think they are so important and expecting too much honour only to earn shame in return.

PREFERING OTHERS​

PREFERING OTHERS​ 

Philippians 2:1-4
Devotional:- "Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself".   (V.3)

    This is the way of love that we look at other better ourselves. We live in a world where everyone wants to blow their own trumpet. Everyone wants to proof that they are someone. Everyone wants to proof that he is better than others. This way, we become selfish and competitive.

The character of love is different from the character of the world. The character of love is the character of God and not of man. The book of the love of God instructs us to esteem others, consider others and regard others more than yourself. This is not just in words but in thinking. In other words, God want this to be out mindset or our mentality.

This is not in any way reducing your ability or capacity. But it helps you to become the best. This helps you to become the best because, when you have not put yourself first and has first honour others than yourself, you stand the chance of people thinking less of you. But when you take the stage, you become the best. This will always qualify you for lifting. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the wisdom of putting others first.

“Putting yourself first may put you last when other come up”

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.

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.
