GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

BITTERNESS

BITTERNESS

SCRIPTURE: HEBREWS 12:12-17
DEVOTIONAL:- “Looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled” (Vs. 15)

    Bitterness is an evidence of unforgiving heart. When we don’t forgive, we nurture hatred in our hearts against our fellow brothers or sisters. You know that the devil always wants to make us bitter, so that we don’t manifest love as the Bible commands us (Luke 10:27). This is why we must not heed the advice of the devil as children of God.

Whenever people offend us, we must find a place in our hearts to forgive them. If we don't, we will start ruminating on what they have done to us. In the course of doing this, the devil will start measuring the length and breadth of the offence. As he does this, the motive of the action (offence) that was not recognized before will be revealed to us. This is simply to complicate the matter and make it impossible for us to forgive so that when we see our offenders, we will become angry and bitter.

Friend, whenever we give room for bitterness in our heart, we disallow God from answering our prayers. God’s word instructs us to pursue peace with all men if we must see the Lord. Now that you understand the process of the development of bitterness, don’t ever let it happen in your life. Ask for the grace of the Holy Spirit for your liberty and your prayers shall be answered. Peace!

Prayer: Holy Spirit, help me to always overcome bitterness in my life.

“THE GOAL OF BITTERNESS IS TO MAKE A LIFE BITTER”
