LIVING IN YOUR PURPOSE

  LIVING IN YOUR PURPOSE Ecclesiastics 4:1-6 Devotional:- "Again, I saw that for all toil and every skillful work a man is envied by his neighbor. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind” (V.4)   One of the most frustrating things in life is when people don’t know what exactly to live for. In that case they just live doing whatever they find others living for.  So many people live their lives driven by guilt. So they keep regretting their steps and past. Some live all their lives on resentment and anger. So many lives are in disarray because they are victims of transfer of aggression. So many lives are driven by fear of many things, so many live their lives driven by materialism, so they live a live that is never satisfied pursuing money. Other lives are driven by the need for approval. So it is what people say about them that determine their joy. The best way to live is to be driven by purpose for which God made you.  When you allow God’s purpose for your life...

RECOGNIZING THE HOLY SPIRIT

RECOGNIZING THE HOLY SPIRIT

Scripture: John 16:5-15

Devotional:- “However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come” (v.13) NKJV

Every citizen of the kingdom of God must grow in knowing and recognizing the activities of the Holy Spirit. This is a vital aspect of our growth as a child of God. Without the Spirit of God, we cannot have quality relationship with God.

As people of the Holy Spirit, we must study to know Him, we must learn His ways of relating with us. We must know how He speaks and direct us, so that we can easily be guided by Him. Jesus said, “It is the Holy Spirit that will guide us into separating the truth from lies of the devil. He will reveal the mysteries of the word of God to us. He will help our mind to be able to comprehend the word and the secret things of God.

To grow in the Holy Spirit, we must study His ways in the word of God, how He helped the disciples of Jesus. How he used them to do great work for God. Someone said the book of Acts of the Apostles should be called the book of the act of the Holy Spirit.

Friend, the Holy Spirit wants to communicate with you always but you must grow into this by relating with Him according to the word of God, then your life will be peculiar unto God. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to increase in the Holy Spirit.

“The more you obey the Holy Spirit, the more He guides you”

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.
