WAITING ON THE LORD

WAITING ON THE LORD 2 Samuel 5:1-10 Devotional:- “David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years” (v.4) NKJV One of the good virtues of God we must always appreciate is His faithfulness. God is not a man that will lie; whatever He has said in His word, He is able to do and He shall do. You can always plug yourself into His promises as much as you work in His covenants. I always tell people never to think God’s word is written only to some specific persons we hear or read about in the Bible. The word of God is the standard practice and programme of God. They were only privileged to be the ones to receive the word at their time, but God is still the same, and so is His word. In claiming the word of God, you must learn to be able to patiently wait. People who will retain their joy must add this virtue to their life (Hebrews 6:12). Our scripture today told us of the installation of David as king, but that was a promise he received from God when he was about 1...

YOUR DESTINY

YOUR DESTINY

Romans 8:18-30
Devotional:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren” (V. 29) NKJV

    Becoming like Jesus is your destiny and one of your purpose on earth. Your destiny is what God expects you to become on earth for his glory (Romans 8:30). He wants you to be like Him to be able to have dominion on earth. When you are like him, then you can operate at a superior level of Wisdom, attitude and character.

This is one of the reasons Jesus came to the world. He came to teach us and to show us the way of God (Isaiah 55:8). He came to be an example of God to us (Romans 8:29). He came to reveal to us the mysteries and the power of being in the image and likeness of God (Matthew 5:3-9)

Friend, living in the likeness of God makes you stronger than others. It makes you work in higher wisdom (Romans 12:20). It make you live above limitations and become unstoppable (Proverbs 24:16). It makes you live above reproach. It prepares you for promotions in life (1 Peter 5:6).

To grow to be like Christ, who is the example of the image of God, you must give yourself to studying His words, it is information that reforms (Romans 12:2). To be like Christ, you need personal time of fellowship with Him in prayer and fasting. You need to fellowship with the church regularly where the word of God is shared with great light. It is then you will be able to fulfil your destiny. Peace.

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to grow to be like you.

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.

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).

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.
