  BECOMING LIKE CHRIST Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the first born among many brethren” (V. 29) The third purpose of your life is to become like Christ. From the very beginning God intend to make man to be like Himself (Gen 1:26). So like God, we are made a spirit and our spirit lives the body. We are intellectual, we can think and solve problems. We are relational, i.e. we can give and receive love. We also have a moral conscience to discern right from wrong which make us accountable to God. God’s ultimate goal for you on earth is not comfort but character. He wants you to grow up and become like Christ. This does not mean losing your personality. Christlikeness is all about transforming your character and not your personality. Every time you forget that character development is the reason you are here you frustrate yourself. So, life is quite challenging because God is always attem...

AGREEMENT

Scripture Reading: Amos 3:1-8
Devotional:- “Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?” (V. 3)

    A covenant is a term of agreement between two or more parties. When people want to get involved in a relationship with purpose, it is always necessary to have a term of agreement. For example, if two or more people want to be friends, there are either written or non written terms of the relationship.

A major reason people who are best of friends later became enemy to each other is because they over expect from each other since there is no terms of agreement in the relationship. When people want to go into business partnership, there are always legal terms of agreement. The same is applicable in marriage.

Please know that being a Christian is fundamentally been in a relationship with God. His covenants are the terms of His relationship with man. That is why you and I have to start studying the terms and conditions of our relationship with God, so that we are not disappointed in God. He is a God of covenant who keeps His covenant to thousand generations (Exodus 34:6-7). There is no prayer and fasting that will make God do what He has not promised in His word. We only pray and receive when we pray according to His will (1John 5:14). This is because His will is His covenant for His children. Take time to know His will before you start claiming. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to know your will

“GOD WILL NEVER FAIL HIS AGREEMENT WITH YOU IF YOU DON’T FAIL”

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.
