  FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD Romans 5:1-11 Devotional:- “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life” (V. 10)  As a kingdom citizen please known that God wants to be your best friend. This is because intimacy is part of your act of worship. It is true that God is our maker and redeemer yet he wants to be our friend. Remember we were made to live continually in God’s presence but it is sin that makes us loose that (Gen 3, Roman 3:23)  In our scripture for today we saw that it was grace through the sacrifice of the cross that gives us access to friendship with God (2 Corinthians 5:18). Our friendship with God does not mean casual acquaintance but close and trusted relationships just like the best man in a wedding. In the palace the servant must keep their distance from the king but there are some people in circle of intimate and trusted friends with the king. They enjoy free an...

CONFIDENCE

Scripture Reading: Psalm 18:27-39
Devotional:- “For by You I can run against a troop, By my God I can leap over a wall” (V. 29)

    Confidence and courage are what bounce back into our heart whenever we are encouraged. Confidence is the act of gaining courage based on the assurance of the backing of God on our lives. As God’s kingdom citizen, we must know the way of our confidence. It is when we meditate on the testimony of the word and the power of God that we can gain confidence in Him.

In the scripture we read today, David was sharing of what he was able to do by the confidence he has in God. All you need to do in other to gain confidence is to meditate and put your trust in the word of God.

For you to be able to put on confidence in the word and the power of God, just call to mind what the Lord has done for you in redemption by Christ Jesus. He died to redeem you from all form of troubles of life. Situation may prove to you that you are nobody but the word of God says the blood that saves you is precious (1 Peter 1:18-19). Never forget that the Lord is with you (Joshua 1:5). Stop putting your confidence in your ability but in your ability in God. And you will bounce back to courage and confidence in Jesus name. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to gain back my confidence in you

“SEEING JESUS BEHIND YOU GIVES YOU CONFIDENCE”

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 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.
