  DESIGNED TO SERVE GOD Psalm 139:13-18 Devotional:- “Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand!” (V. 16 NLT)   God designed and formed you to fit into what He wants you to do to serve Him. The intended function determines the form of a building, so also your life. You are the way you are because you were made for specific ministry (Ephesians 2:10) Our scripture today simply means nothing that happens in your life is insignificant. God will never waste any ability unless He intend to use it for His glory (1 Peter 2:9) Before God will give you any assignment, He must have packaged you for it. This packaging is what we call shape (Jeremiah 1:5). Let us look at the meaning of each letter in your shape. The ‘S’ represents Spiritual gifts. These are special God-empowered abilities for serving Him, giving only to believers (1 Cor. 2:14). These gift cannot be bought because they are given by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12:11). We are to use them to benefit on...

STEADFASTNESS

STEADFASTNESS

Act 2:40-47
Devotional:- “And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers” (v. 42) NKJV

    Today, our decisions to follow the Lord is greatly challenged by temptations of different types. The devil has so much pollute the world that it is so easy to follow the way of sin and unrighteousness. That is why to be an ordinary Christian today is to be no Christian at all. 
 Those who have chosen to be disciples of Christ must be steadfast in following the master. To be steadfast is to be resolute to stand in the will of God even if no body does. To be steadfast is to be firm no matter the intimidation of friends. It is to make up your mind to follow the Lord notwithstanding any situation or circumstances.
 
Frien, your decision to be a disciple of Jesus will be tested by people with negative influences. Be ready to be dishonored to bring honour to the Lord. You must have a strong resolution to remain in Christ whatever the case may be. Choose to close doors to options. Be bold to tell people “If it is ungodly count me out” Remember Jesus has promised to help us by the Holy Spirit that is in us. Stand firm in the word of God and you will be a true disciple of Christ (Ephesians 6:13-14). Peace
 
Prayer: Lord, strengthen me in the inner man to always stand for you

“He that is not standing for righteousness is falling in unrighteousness”

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

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.
