FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD

  FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD Romans 5:1-11 Devotional:- “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life” (V. 10)  As a kingdom citizen please known that God wants to be your best friend. This is because intimacy is part of your act of worship. It is true that God is our maker and redeemer yet he wants to be our friend. Remember we were made to live continually in God’s presence but it is sin that makes us loose that (Gen 3, Roman 3:23)  In our scripture for today we saw that it was grace through the sacrifice of the cross that gives us access to friendship with God (2 Corinthians 5:18). Our friendship with God does not mean casual acquaintance but close and trusted relationships just like the best man in a wedding.

Matthew 12:33-37
Devotional:- "A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things, and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things". (V. 35)

    If anyone want to succeed, it is important that we realize that it has to be first built inside before it can truly manifest outside. Everyone wants the external manifestation of success but most people do not want to labour to build a life of success. Until your heart is qualified to succeed, pursuit of success will always be a frustration.

Jesus says, a good man bring forth good things out of his heart. This means our heart composition is the determinant of our level of success. Someone said the heart of the problem is the problem of the heart. Until your heart is rightly structured it will be a big issue to have a sustaining success. This is so because our heart is what determines our life. (Proverbs 23:7). It is our heart that is the engine of production of what we shall have in this world. If we have what we don’t have the heart capacity for, we are bound to lose it.

Friend, stop getting frustrated trying to control what you cannot control. Identify the needed character and start to labouring to attain the positive attitude that make you capable to handle it (Matthew 12:33). Labour to attain emotional balance, start to labour to always act positively. Labour to cultivate right habits of success in life. Labour to build success mindset. Labour to build right belief system and you will start to work in the part of success. God always release us into our success but it is our attitude and mind-set that often deny us access. When these are rightly put in place then success is inevitable. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to be humble to build inner character of success.
