  CONDEMNATION Romans 8:1-8 Devotional:- “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit” (v.1) NKJV Condemnation is often mistakenly taken as one of the behaviours of the righteous, and by it, the enemy often steals the joy of many. What most people feel like expressing is the fact that being sober brings us to a time of quality self-examination. But this has nothing to do with condemnation (2 Corinthians 7:10). It is actually the enemy that is making us feel we are not fit to live in God’s presence. It’s all together the trick of the devil to steal our joy. In the scripture we read today, the Bible says we are no longer to be condemned. Condemnation is a legal term applicable to an accused who is guilty of a crime. But Christ has taken all we are supposed to take on the cross. If you have to suffer for your sin, then the death of Christ is in vain. God’s word says we have been justified ...

SENSE OF SECURITY

SENSE OF SECURITY

1 Samuel 18:5-15
Devotional:- "Then Saul was very angry, and the saying displeased him; and he said, “They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed only thousands. Now what more can he have but the kingdom?”  (V. 8)

    One of the attitudes that can make us love indeed is the attitude of sense of security. Without this, we will have jealousy and envy in the family. Where there is no sense of security people will be treating others with wicked (Genesis 4:3-8). Sense of security is when you are happy with what God has given you. You don't see the other person better than you but you are willing to celebrate everyone around you.

You can see how the success of Abel disturb Cain and he killed his brother (Genesis 4:5-15). You can see how the successes of David disturbed King Saul till he became jealous of him and plan to kill him. The word of God says “love is not jealous (1 Corinthians 13:4). To be envious or jealous is to be negatively threatened by the success of others.

It is important that each of us know that there is no one created without a special ability or a seed of blessing to bless others around us. It can be different from person to person. Yet, everyone has the seed of greatness. Please, discover and develop yours. It will make you special when you bless people with your gift. We really do not need to be jealous of each other. No matter how many accountants working in the same office, there will still be uniqueness in the way each one works. Just be diligent to be the best in your uniqueness in that office, community or house of God. You will then have the best of life. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be diligent to be the best.

“Insecurity is a product of ignorant and laziness”

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.

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.
