GOOD WILL

  GOOD WILL Luke 2:8-14 Devotional:- “Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!” (V. 14) NKJV A great blessing of God to humanity at the birth of Christ is goodwill. A nation without it is completely under bondage. They cannot claim, nor ask, nor can they have anything from the Lord except by the common grace (Matthew 5:25). This is what the sons of men are before the coming of the Messiah. Men have been living under the pressure and the punishment of sin and the law. Men were governed spiritually by the law they were never capable of obeying. When Jesus came, then came the time of grace. This brought us into the season of the goodwill of God (Ephesians 2:8). Will is what every father writes to give the right of inheritance to each of the children. Before Christ, God’s will was not approachable for men. It was not favorable for a natural man. But God gave us another will in Christ Jesus. This is what the angel was announcing in verse 14. We refer to it t...

THINKING THROUGH

Luke 15:11-24
Devotional:- "I will arise and go to my father, and will say to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you". (V. 18)

    Thinking is not ordinary; thinking is often ignited by the spirit. When you find yourself thinking repeatedly around an issue, God is simply setting you up for an achievement. Most people see thinking as a burden. They enjoy to always jest and laugh, that is great but not all the time so that you don’t laugh away the strength to succeed.

The prodigal son had made great mistake. He has committed a sacrilege by asking for his inheritance from a living father. God’s word said a will is not effective when the writer is still alive (Hebrews 9:17). But this boy defiled it all. He received his inheritance without vision and experience of financial management. So he came to the end of the road. But though he has lost all things, he didn’t lose his mind. So he engaged his mind and he was restored. People need to know that it is laziness to keep giving excuses. Nothing good will come without a price.

Friend, when you pray ask the Holy Spirit to guide your mind into the counsel of God (Psalm 23:1-3). Let the Lord help you to understand your way to restoration. As you engage Him in mental responsibility, He will start to guide you. He will lead you and surprise you with heavenly ideas. Things you never thought of will come to mind. This is the beauty of waiting, in separation to the Lord (Isaiah 40:31). You will arise and succeed in Jesus name. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to be mentally responsible.

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.
