  SUBMIT TO HIM John 14:12-24  “Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (V. 23) NKJV   Sometimes on the platform of love, there is nothing men cannot offer to one another. If you truly love a man you will not want to reject or disobey him. You will want to do as much as it is in your capacity. You will not want to turn him down. Can you imagine how strictly you want to keep to an appointment with a loved one? If we have attached so much importance to responding to our lover, how much more God. If you truly love God it will be natural for you to submit to His will. You will not need to argue or ask too many questions. It will be a pleasure submitting to His will. Jesus said in the scripture we read today, if anyone loves me he will keep my words. In other word he will submit or obey my word. Then the reward here is that the father will also love such one i...

ENCOURAGEMENT 

Scripture Reading: Isaiah 52:1-10
Devotional:- “Awake, awake! Put on your strength, O Zion; Put on your beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city! For the uncircumcised and the unclean shall no longer come to you” (V.1)

    It's important that all God's Kingdom citizen knows that they must not joke with the issue of encouragement in their lives. Discouragement could frustrate anyone to death. Discouragement will make many turn to the way of the devil and miss their eternity with God. That is why we must not joke with the issue of encouragement. There is no one that cannot be discouraged but encouragement is bouncing back to courage. Discouragement is inability to draw from the energy of the spirit to drive into achievement of life.

Encouragement is picking up courage again after been discouraged. Without courage, human being will be equal to a vegetable, not able to achieve anything in life. No matter how skillful or strong anyone is, discouragement can beat him/her hands down.

To be encouraged is to bounce back to courage. This is when we find the energy to move rising in us again. God is bringing you back to courage from now. He is renewing your strength (Isaiah 40:31). You have been humbled enough. The time has come for you to arise from slumbering (Isaiah 52:1). Your God is not a God of failure. He is able to help you. Return back to His word and bounce back to faith in Him (Romans 10:17). And you shall see your victory again.

PRAYER: Lord, restore your strength in my life

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 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.
