  LOVE OF GOD I John 4:7-19 Devotional:- “Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God” (V. 7) NIV You can hardly separate these two virtues; they are love and joy. They work together as twin brothers. You cannot love and not be joyful. In this season of joy, one of the things you must give room to for your joy to come is love. If you were not billing to love, you may not see joy. They have the same source; they both come from God (Psalm 16:11, 1 John 4:8) The scripture we read today said, Love comes from God and love is God. This means God cannot be in you and you can still hate. If you do, it is a sign that you are not born of God. You cannot be stealing and cheating, and you say you are a child of God. The bible teaches us how to truly demonstrate love. This is by following the example of God. He demonstrated His own love by giving us His most precious gift, Jesus Christ. Love and giving have the same mea...

HOPE

Scripture Reading: Job 14:6-14
Devotional:- "For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease” (V.7)

    A man is encouraged when he bounce back to hope. This is an act of reassuring ourselves of the promises of the word of God. We gain encouragement when we remember what the Lord is able to do in our lives. To be hopeful is to have a deep sense of expectations and assurance that what we are trusting God for will come

Job said there is hope for a tree. If it is cut down, at the scent or the smell of water, it will come alive again and bring forth like a plant. How much more man?

Friend, if a tree smell water and come alive, then the water you need to always smell is the word of God (Isaiah 55:10-11; Psalm 19:7-8). If anyone lacks hope, there is nothing he will be able to attain. To build your hope again, you need to take time to meditate upon the testimonies of the doing of the Lord. That is why it is dangerous if a Christian is withdrawing from the fellowship of children of God. There the Lord renews our hope in His word and we are back to courage (Psalm 84:7). Peace

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me by your word to keep my hope alive

“HOPE RESTORED IS COURAGE RESTORED”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.
