  LIFTING Psalms 75:1-10 Devotional:- “But God is the judge. He putteth down one and setteth up another.” (V. 7) KJV It is part of God’s act of love to lift up his own people. If you have a privilege be in an office, there is every tendency that you will want use your office to help and lift the people you love, so also is God. He is highly exalted. He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He is the creator of heaven and earth. The bible calls Him the judge, in other word, He rules and decides the case of everyone in heaven and earth. So he is willing to lift you up as the one He loves. In the sovereignty of God, I have seen God demonstrating His love by lifting the unworthy. People like Joseph, David, Solomon, Paul the apostle and a host of others. If you as a child of God enjoy a status now it is part of His good gesture to you. And whatever level you are now, do not be discouraged, for He is still taking you higher. He took Joseph from the prison to the palace (Genesis 41:...

FAITH   

1 Samuel 17:23-32
Devotional:- "Then David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, “What shall be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?” (V. 26)

A major factor of strength in every man is faith. Faith is a product of the revelation of the word of God to our spirit man (Romans 10:17). Without faith, no man will rise to achieve anything. Most people envy a successful man but are not always ready to pay the price. Faith is the compulsion in your spirit man to step out.

Faith is the Holy Spirit activating strength in you to carry out the counsel of God. David was been instigated by the Holy spirit through the revelation of the word of God. So he kept repeating the word to himself. “Who is this uncircumcised philistine to defile the army of the living God”? It is the stimulation of this word that pushes David on to action of rising to overcome.

Friend, don’t just keep praying. Prayer is also an avenue to contact the revelation of the power of God (Jeremiah 33:3). In prayer, God shows us the way out. That is why we should be very sensitive to know what God want us to do. Meditating in the word of God also stimulate us with revelation to arise in faith (Daniel 9:1-3). By faith David steps out to terminate Goliath the enemy of God’s people. Stop being afraid to launch out. Meditate to access revelation of His word and you will have faith to rise.

Prayer: Lord, release the faith in me to arise

“NO FAITH, NO RISING, NO RISING, NO SUCCESS”

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 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.
