WAITING ON THE LORD

WAITING ON THE LORD 2 Samuel 5:1-10 Devotional:- “David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years” (v.4) NKJV One of the good virtues of God we must always appreciate is His faithfulness. God is not a man that will lie; whatever He has said in His word, He is able to do and He shall do. You can always plug yourself into His promises as much as you work in His covenants. I always tell people never to think God’s word is written only to some specific persons we hear or read about in the Bible. The word of God is the standard practice and programme of God. They were only privileged to be the ones to receive the word at their time, but God is still the same, and so is His word. In claiming the word of God, you must learn to be able to patiently wait. People who will retain their joy must add this virtue to their life (Hebrews 6:12). Our scripture today told us of the installation of David as king, but that was a promise he received from God when he was about 1...

COMPLETE TRUST

Scripture Reading: Psalms 40:1-8
Devotional:- “He has put a new song in my mouth — Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the Lord” (V. 3)

    Our act of total trust in God is an act of honour and worship to Him. When children trust their parents, the parents are pleased. So, also is God. Today, many feel it’s a waste of time to trust God. Many mocks when you say you are trusting God. This is because they don’t know what it means to trust God. It is not an irresponsible statement, neither an idle statement.

The word of God says God take pleasure in those who trust in Him (Psalms 147:11).  The word says, in God I will praise His word, in God I have put my trust. Trusting God is an act of praises to God (Psalms 56:4). To trust God completely mean you put your hope and faith in Him. The word of God says concerning Abraham that he hoped in God even when there is no reason to hope (Romans 4:18-22). The word of God says this pleases God and was counted to him for righteousness.

Friend, you need to observe the areas of your life where you need to trust God. You must be willing to put your hope in Him. This pleases the Lord just like an hundred songs of praises. This is living by seeing God capable of performing His words in our lives. Trust in God is trust in His words to act on his instructions. This is the responsibility of trust and faith. You will not fail in Jesus name (Psalms 125: 1-5). Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always trust on you

“TRUST IN GOD IS BETTING YOUR LIFE ON GOD’S FAITHFULNESS”

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.
