SHARING YOUR FEELING

  SHARING YOUR FEELING Hebrews 4:11-16 Devotional:- “For we do not have an high priest who cannot sympathize with our weakness… (V. 15)” It is not always very easy for people to understand us, especially when we pass through challenges and are weak. Even those who want to understand and sympathise could get to a level and turn back. Sometimes, instead of people sympathising with us, they constitute a panel of judges and begin to point accusing fingers at us.  As part of the act of love of Jesus, the scripture we read today says, He sympathises with us in our situation. In other words, He knows exactly what you are going through, both the one you can explain and the one you cannot. He could feel exactly the way you feel. The Bible says, He has suffered as we do. Even if you are struggling with a weakness or a sin, He has also been in the flesh. He knows how painful your feelings are. He cannot reject you, and He identifies with you and still loves you. That is why He made provi...

THE PREPARATION OF THE HEART

THE PREPARATION OF THE HEART

SCRIPTURE: PROVERBS 16:1-7
DEVOTIONAL: “The preparations of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD” (Vs. 1).

    It is often said that proper preparation prevents poor performance. God has given the task of the preparation of the heart to man before we will expect God to give us result. This is simply our part in His divine plan (Hebrews 11:40). So, if we want to have our prayers answered, we must prepare our hearts for it. Remember, God listens to the voice of our hearts more than He listens to the voice of our mouths (1 Samuel 16:7)

To prepare our hearts for a time of effective prayers which attract answers, we must understand what strengthens our hearts before God.  Remember, every mind has three compartments such as the intellect, the emotion and the will power. Each of these parts have their roles to play in our success. The one that is very vital for our decision to act on faith is our will power. A man with a strong will power will always make progress. One receives strength in his will power with confidence and courage, when being inspired by the word of the spirit, the word of God. When this happens, your strength becomes doubled (Job 32:8, Joshua 1:8). This is the reason God instructed Joshua to meditate on the word for his prosperity and good success. 

Always sit down to meditate on the word of God wich has been covenanted to solve your problems. When you do this, your mind will be positioned to receive the confidence you need to stand before God for any answer you desire. Your testimonies will also be inevitable. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, inspire my heart to courageously seek you for my answers (Hebrews 4:16).

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.
