GREATEST FATHER

  GREATEST FATHER John 20:11-18 “Jesus said to her, "Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, 'I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God.” (V.17) NKJV   Though there is a great number of males in the world today, there are few true fathers. Men who can be referred to as good fathers are rare. This is the reason for the breeding of terrible children in today's homes. Many children don’t even know what it is to have a father. That is why when God is referred to as our father, it does not interest some of us in any form. We only look at Him as one of those absentee fathers in the world. In the scripture we read today, Jesus died and resurrected again and purchased us back to God by His blood. The first person He met after His resurrection was Mary Magdalene. He was glad to share with Mary the good news of God becoming our Father through His death. He probably would have expecte...

WORD OF GOD

Scripture Reading: Psalms 119:89-96
Devotional:- “I will never forget Your precepts, For by them You have given me life” (V. 93)

    It is important we identify the seed of courage for our encouragement. The truth you must know is that, this world is full of seed of discouragement. Yet, it is only those who allows it that will destroy their courage in life. As a child of God, you must know what makes you stronger than the forces of this world. The main seed of courage for our encouragement is the word of God (Luke 8:11, Psalm 119:97-100).

God told Joshua that the strength of courage comes from the word of God (Joshua 1:8). You will need to know that we gain courage in life by sure information we meditate on. Because God cannot lie. His word is the truth (John17:17). That is why we value His word.

Friend, anyone you value can penetrate in to your heart. But we must go beyond just valuing God and His word but always meditate on the word of God (Joshua 1:8). This is because whatever you don't meditate on, you will not courageously act on it. We will become very bold in faith when the Spirit of the word access our mind (Romans 10:17, Hebrews 4:12). Sometimes, you may need to go beyond reading to listening and watching a preacher. And your courage will always come back. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me by your word

“THE SPIRIT YOU ARE LISTENING TO WILL COMPOSE THE STRENGTH IN YOU”

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.
