TAKE THE LOWLY PLACE  Luke 14:7-14 Devotional:- But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes he may say to you, 'Friend, go up higher.' Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you.

But do you know that honour is better than shame? When some people are invited to occasion, oftentimes think they are so important and expecting too much honour only to earn shame in return. When you are invited to any occasion, dress well but humble yourself; you are not to be the most important. Don’t begin to think you are the only person there. Be willing to sit in the low place.

COURAGE

Scripture Reading: Joshua 1:1-9 NKJV
Devotional:- “Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go” (V. 7)

    A major virtue in the life of every conqueror is the virtue of courage. This is an act of having faith in one’s ability to face a challenge or situation. A timid can achieve nothing. That is why the word of God said, God has not given us the Spirit of timidity (2 Timothy 1:7). It is our meditation upon the testimony of the word of God that births courage in us (1 Samuel 17:36, Joshua 1:8).

To be encouraged is to locate back your courage. You need to know the source of courage to succeed and overcome in this wicked world. Those who do not know the way of courage will be defeated in every battle of life. In the scripture we read today, God commanded Joshua to be courageous. He showed him the way to courage, which is by meditating in the word of God. It is the information we meditate on that can instill courage in us to act.

Courage is a conviction in our mind of the ability in us to conquer. It is a product of information in which we put our confidence. It is a conclusion in our heart about our strength. That is why our courage should be in the word of God. That is the only sure word (2 Peter 1:19). The ability of the Holy Spirit is in you. You only need to fan it to flame by meditating the word of God (2 Timothy 1:6). And your courage will grow again. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, encourage me by your word

“COURAGE IS A DRIVE IN OUR MIND TO PUSH US TO ACTION”

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.

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.
