  HOW REAL SERVANTS ACT Mark 10:35-45 Devotional:- “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (V. 43).   The world defines greatness in terms of power, possessions, prestige and position but God determined your greatness by how many people you serve. This is quite contrary to the world view. Jesus called Himself servant and to be like Him is to be a servant. That is why it is so important to have a servant’s heart. God often test our heart by asking us to serve even outside our shape or area of interest. Your priority area of service should be in your area of shape, but God could demand for your service wherever needed. Looking at how a servant act is important because one could serve in a church for years and not be a real servant. Real servants make themselves available to serve. If you only serve when it is convenient, then you are not a good servant (2 Timothy 2:4). Real servants pay attention to needs, always lo...

TRAINING

Daniel 1:1-10
Devotional:- "And the king appointed for them a daily provision of the king’s delicacies and of the wine which he drank, and three years of training for them, so that at the end of that time they might serve before the king". (V. 5)

    When Daniel and the three Hebrews where brought into the palace of Babylon, they have to plan a training for them. It is important to think of training for people to have quality understanding of what is expected of them. There is need for training for people to become skilful in their process of production. There is need for training to the producer to produce the best. There is need for training for the producer to be exposed to the varieties of approaches to his work.

The king of Babylon has to approve three years for the training of these Israelites, because years spent in training is not a waste. An untrained product may waste much materials and opportunities in the cause of trial by error. An untrained producer can wound himself handling some machines wrongly. An untrained producer can be a disappointment.

Friend there is a strong need for each of us to keep training in our area of production. Training will make effective and efficiency (2 Timothy 2:15). Training will makes us skilful, training will make us very strong and give us high turnover in production (Ecclesiastics 10:10). The training can be formal or informal, yet they must help us to achieve the set goal. Let us be wise to give ourselves to training and we shall be successful. Peace!

Prayer- Lord, help me to be humble to submit to training”

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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

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.
