  SUSTAINING JOY Hebrews 1:1-10 Devotional:- “who being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high” (V. 3) NKJV You must come to know that the joy that will be sustained must come from the word of God. This is because God sustains all things by His word. Many people have joy yesterday and sorrow today. This is because they put their joy in material profit I would like to introduce you to what sustains all things: it is the word of God. Put your faith and hope only in the word and not in the things of the world. While others are failing, you will keep rising (Psalm 4:18). By the word of God, you can sustain your joy, peace and prosperity. Put your hope in the word and stop that fear because of what they told you. Take faith in what God says, and your joy shall be everlasting. Peace! Prayer: Lord, help me to hold on to your...

IDOLATRY

IDOLATRY

Scripture Reading: Psalms 16:1-6
Devotional:- “Their sorrows shall be multiplied who hasten after another god; Their drink offerings of blood I will not offer, Nor take up their names on my lips” (V. 4)

    Another factor that removes praises from the life of people is idolatry. This is an act of following other god apart from the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Idolatry has trapped the destiny of many people. People follow other gods because they take to suggestions from the ungodly. Ungodly way may look profitable, but the end is always destructive (Proverbs 14:12).

The word of God says, “those who follow other gods shall have many sorrows”. Idolatry is an optional way offered by the devil for those who can no longer wait for the Lord (Psalms 37:7-11). The devil always deceives people with material things till they will bag sorrow. The reason why idolatry looks better to some people is that it works fast. But this is deception of the devil to take people away from their joy.

Friend, all that glitters are not gold. Be happy following the Lord. Be patience to learn the way things work in God (Luke 8:15). Refuse to follow the devil or any wicked advice. Such will lead to sorrow at last. Do not because of money seek the devil (1 Timothy 6:10-11). Don't be offended in God (Matthew 11:6). Humble yourself before God and you shall be lifted in due season (1 Peter 5:6). Keep serving God with joy (Deuteronomy 28:47-48). Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, sustain me in your righteousness

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.

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.
