DELIGHT IN THE WORD

  DELIGHT IN THE WORD Psalm 119:97-104         Devotional:- “How sweet are Your words to my taste, Sweeter than honey to my mouth!” (v.103) NKJV One of the greatest strengths of joy is the Word of God. The truth is that man’s life is a product of the information that he always listen to. If a man always hears about wickedness, he will be wicked. If a man keeps hearing sorrowful news, he will keep having sorrow. But for those who will always commune in the word of God, they will keep their joy by the word of God. This is because the word of God is good news; it’s the joyful news. There is no way you will give yourself to regular drinking from the word of God; that joy will not be produced regularly in you. The word is a sure source of joy. The psalmist says God’s word is sweet not only to him but also to everyone who loves it. The reason why many Christians today still have sorrow despite the Bible in their hand is that it is a book to decorate their shelf a...

UNDERSTANDING

Scripture: Ephesians 1:15-22

Devotional:- “The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints” (v.18) NKJV

    No one will be able to grow in God above his/her level of understanding. Our level of understanding determines how much we can yield or submit to God. It determines how much we can exercise in the power and the grace of God . No one can achieve in life more than his/her level of understanding. It is knowing how things are done.

The way and the word of God are mysteries. We will not be able to walk in them except we grow in understanding (1 Corinthians 14:20). To grow in understanding, we need quality fellowship with the Holy Spirit and the word of God (Job 32:8). It is the Holy Spirit that helps us understands the word of God (John 14:26). If not, the word of God will look like foolishness to you.

Friend, you need to grow your reasoning capacity, insight, sensitivity and perception of the things of God by meditating in the word of God. It is our understanding that determines the flow of the grace of God to our lives. Only men of understanding can grow into maturity (2 Peter 1:2)  Always ask for the Spirit of understanding by the Holy Spirit and you shall be given (1 kings 3:5-14). Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me understanding of your ways

“Men only become outstanding by understanding”

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 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.
