  SONGS OF LOVE Isaiah 54:1-10 Devotional:- “"Sing, O barren, You who have not borne! Break forth into singing, and cry aloud, You who have not labored with child! For more are the children of the desolate Than the children of the married woman," says the LORD.” (V.1) NKJV Most people don’t appreciate the place of singing in love relationship. We often think it is the affair of children to sing to one another. But it is until you try it one day that you will have a great fun between you and your spouse as you sing. That is why the whole Song of Solomon is song of love. If you desire to enjoy the best of Gods love you will have to learn quite a lost of songs. God love songs. It is one of the reasons David and many singers won the heart of God. He even said we should sing a new song to the Lord (Psalms 96:1; Ephesians 5:19). But this is not just singing but worshipping Him. You may not be able to enjoy God’s love to the peak until you learn how to effectively worship Him. This ...

AREAS OF A GROWTH

Scripture: 2 Peter 3:14-18

Devotional:- “But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen” (v.18) NKJV

    As citizens of the kingdom of God, there are areas of life that we need to grow to be like Jesus. These areas encompasses different dimension of our spiritual need for a balanced Christian life. Though we should grow in Christ in every areas of our lives, but let us group these areas to about five, for easy growth structure.

The first area a disciple of Christ should focus on to grow like Jesus is in our character. This has to do with our behavioral habits which characterized us before God and man (1 Timothy 4:12). The second area is the area of our capacity. This has to do with the development of our ability to use our gift and talent to help and advance the kingdom of God, yet in a godly way (1 Corinthians 12:7).

The third is our understanding (Ephesians 1:17-18). Our understanding of the ways of God determine how much we can get done in God. Fourth is our relationship with God and people. This is growing in love with God and man. And fifth is our faith in God. Every time we are studying the word of  God, these  are areas we should seek to learn and know more in  God. And we shall be growing up  in the Lord to be like Jesus as true followers of Christ. Peace.

PRAYER:- Lord, help me to grow in all things in Christ

“Growth is  only growth when it is balanced.

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.
