  THE MOST IMPORTANT THING 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 “Three things will last forever-faith, hope, and love-and the greatest of these is love”. (V. 13) In belonging to God and his family the most important thing is love. Because God is love and the most important lesson He wants us to learn is how to love. It is in loving that we look like Him. Loving makes you obey all the laws of God (Gal. 5:14). God wants us to love everyone but particularly members of His family (1 Pet 2:17). A major reason God wants us to specially love members of His family is because He wants His family to be known for love more than any other thing (John 13:35). God want us to be in regular close fellowship with other believers because you cannot develop the skill of love in isolation. To learn to love you must be around imperfect, frustrating and people of different characters.  Love should be your richest priority in life. Love should always be your motive and your motivation in all you do (1 Corinthians ...

GIVING GLORY

Scripture Reading: Psalms 29:1-11
Devotional:- “Give unto the Lord the glory due to His name; Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness” (V. 2)

    We are made to give glory to God in all our lives (1 Corinthians 10:31). The glory of God is in His honour and praises. Whenever we are praising God, we are bringing glory to Him. This is a major thing God desire from the sons of men. Among all that the Lord had made, only the falling demons and man that does not always give glory to God. This is because the devil always wants us to lose focus on the importance of God to our lives. So, man prefer the way of sin (Romans 3:23).

The word of God says, we should give unto God the glory due to His name. To give glory to God means, we recognize Him as our maker and owner. He is the maker of everything that is existing (Revelation 4:11). We give glory to God when we praise Him (Psalms 29:2). We give glory to God when we love others that He made (John 13:34-35; 1 John 3:14). We bring glory to God when we grow His attitude and character to be like Him (2 Corinthians 3:18). We give glory to God when we are serving Him with our gifts (1Peter 4:10-11). We bring glory to God when we bring others to God (2 Corinthians 4:15).

Friend, your life will only reflect the beauty of the Lord when you are bringing glory to God. The reason we should bring glory to God is that God might also glorify Himself in us (John 17:4-5). When the glory of God is on you, all that you do will bring testimony and praises to God. And you will be God’s special person. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to bring glory to you in all I do.

“THE MANIFESTATION OF YOUR GLORY IS IN BRINGING GLORY TO GOD”

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.
