  KINDNESS Hebrews 13:1-9 Devotional:- “Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels” (v.2) NKJV The season we are in is a season of strangers, and close friends will come to locate you. You will find many in need of your assistance. God’s words teach us to be of assistance to such people. Even though we live in a very dangerous and delicate world, where so many unbelievable atrocities have been committed. Yet it does not mean we should completely neglect the instruction of this part of the scripture. We only need to obey God with wisdom. We are not to turn people away sharply; we only need to learn to discern what kind of people are coming around us. We also need to be wise not to disclose or open our hidden places to strangers. But I need to let you know that God honour those who honour strangers. If you read the bible, you will discover God has a special interest in widows, orphans and strangers. So when you give attention to the...

IT PLEASES GOD

Scripture Reading: Psalms 69:30-36
Devotional:- “This also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bull, Which has horns and hooves” (V. 31)

    Praises make a man’s life to please God. This is because praises involve humility and the fear of the Lord (Psalms 25:9-14). Praises open the door of the life of a man to God. Praises make God to be enthroned in the life of a man (Psalms 22:3). Praises make God to guide a man into his destiny (Acts 13:2). Having all of these experiences make a man to please the Lord in praises.

The Psalmist says, I will praise the name of the Lord with a song and magnify Him with thanksgiving. This also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bull. In other word, a sacrifice of praises is more pleasing to God. The word of God says our worship become reasonable or acceptable when we praise Him from a surrendered heart (Romans 12:1). So, praises is an act of righteousness before the Lord.

The word of God says, when a man’s way pleases the Lord, even his enemy will be at peace with him (Proverbs 16:17). That is why the Bible says, if God be for us, who can be against us (Romans 8:31). If praises is therefore what makes us please God, then sorrow and anxiety makes us displease God (2 Corinthians 10:12). So, chose to always praise God and your ways will always be pleasing to God. So that He can make your way prosperous. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, let your praises terminate all that displeases you in my life.

“GOD WILL ALWAYS GIVE HIS BEST TO A MAN THAT PLEASES HIM ALWAYS”

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.
