STRENGTH IN GOD

STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

RESPONSIBILITY

RESPONSIBILITY​

1 John 3:11-17
Devotional:- "By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren". (V. 16).

    A major character of love is responsibility. This is been willing to pay the price for what we intend to enjoy in relationship. In relationship you are either a burden or a blessing. Each party in relationship must seek to contribute positively to the growth of their relationship. 

​Today billions of people are turning to God but God is also responsible to earn the best of man. Apart from protecting, providing or healing us, He gave His only son to die for our redemption (John 3:16). To be responsible is to respond with your ability. This mean there is something you can do, do it to be a blessing to others around you.

Friend, decide to be a blessing to your family especially your spouse and children. Be responsible at home in the office, in the church and in the community at large. Some people left their nation to come and preach the gospel to us before we know the Lord. We also should do the same at our level. When you desire to rise and take responsibility in your relationship God will start to give you the way to go about it. When it is in your heart God will put it in your hands. It takes responsibility to earn the best of relationship. Don’t keep giving excuses or keep explaining things. Do your best to be a contributor and not just a consumer. Arise! 

Prayer: Lord, make me a blessing to all around me. 

"You are either a burden or a blessing"

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
