  SUSTAINING JOY Hebrews 1:1-10 Devotional:- “who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high” (V. 3) NKJV You must come to know that the joy that will be sustained must come from the word of God. This is because God sustains all things by His word. Many people have joy yesterday and sorrow today. This is because they put their joy in material profit I would like to introduce you to what sustains all things: it is the word of God. Put your faith and hope only in the word and not in the things of the world. While others are failing, you will keep rising (Psalm 4:18). By the word of God, you can sustain your joy, peace and prosperity. Put your hope in the word and stop that fear because of what they told you. Take faith in what God says, and your joy shall be everlasting. Peace! Prayer: Lord, help me to hold on to your...

LOVING GOD SUPREMELY

LOVING GOD SUPREMELY

Scripture: Matthew 10:34- 39

Devotional:- "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me" (v.3) NKJV

    Living in love demand that we take good care of people around us. That is a great one. But the word of God introducing to us in the scripture we read today a new dimension of love which is to love God supremely. This is by loving God above all other persons.

To love God supremely is to choose to do His will when there is a clash of interest between loving people and God. It means we have to choose to love God above all other persons. In loving God supremely, we have chosen to love man the way God wants us to love people. In other word the love of God become a pattern for our love life. We refuse to love the way the world teaches us to love. The word of God teaches us to be kind, forgive, endure etc (1 Corinthians 13:4-7).

Many people live in the bondage of people's opinion. But we must live in God’s opinion. This is the reason you don't allow anyone to come between you and God. You must ask for the wisdom of God to handle this when it is between God and your parents or spouse, your boss or senior ones. You must learn to love God above all. A woman may have parents, but she should know that she must submit to her husband above them to keep her home (Ephesians 5:22-24). So also we must obey Jesus to keep our lives with God. Peace.

Prayer:- Lord, give me the wisdom and courage to make you first

“Whatever is first is the god”

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.

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.
