  OUR REDEEMER Colossians 2:9-18  Devotional:- “In whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.”(V. 14) No life living under the power of curses can by any means prosper. This is because curses have the power to destroy the strength to prosper. When it is said that a man is cursed, it means a word was spoken to him, and this word follows him to pull him down wherever he goes. You need to know that the Word often became flesh to follow people (John 1:14). So it often stands as a spirit assigned to follow men about. So when a man is cursed, it is under a monitoring spirit that destroys his help, favour and success. But we have this great love of God demonstrated to us in Christ Jesus. Jesus came to redeem us from the curses ofthe law. In other words, He has come to set us free from the slavery of sin and Satan. To redeem means to set free or buy back from the slave market. He paid the price tag placed on us and bought us back from the slave market of the e...

WORDLY VIEW

Luke 12:13-21
And He said to them, “Take heed and beware of covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things he possesses.” (V. 15)

    The view of the world is to just get the materials. So, very many people who don’t have the inner ability have gone terrible just to get these materials. That is why many parents now buy certificate for their children. People now have to organize robbery. These are because our idea of success is focused only on materials. Friend, materials are only to assist us to succeed, they are not our success. Our success is the ability to succeed which is an internal quality, the composition of our heart, then we shall be successful.

As we live in this world, there are some goals that are important for us to achieve. If we don’t achieve them it will look like a discouragement and frustration. For example a man must of necessity get married and have a good home. A man need to build a place for his family to stay. A man must think of a means of transportation for his family to freely move around. The purpose of all this is to assist us to carry out our assignment on the earth. Jesus said a man have beautiful harvest. Instead of him to give thanks to God and prepare to be a blessing to others around him, he saw himself at the climax of life. This got God angry at him and his soul was demanded that same day. What is now his profit in all he has done? He was called a fool at the end.

Friend, congratulations for all you have been able to achieve. But it is important you know that they are a means to an end and not an end in itself. God made you for a purpose. That purpose is the reason you are on the earth. So, there is a need to define the purpose. Your purpose can be identified only with the one who made you. Take time out to seek His face. Then He will reveal His purpose of your creation to you. You then need to organize to pursue and fulfil your purpose of been on the earth. This is when you are truly walking in the path of success. May God not be angry with you. You will fulfil your destiny in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, help me to identify and fulfil my destiny

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). 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 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.
