  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

DIVINE PROVISION

DIVINE PROVISION

Scripture Reading: 2 Corinthians 9:6-15
Devotional:- “But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully” (V. 6) NKJV

    The covenant of divine provision in the kingdom of God is connected to sowing and reaping. This may not be the same with the way of the world. Of course; we are not discussing the way of the world here. But rather, this is the kingdom of God (Galatians 6:7).

The word of God says “it is what we sow, that we shall reap. In other words, he that wants more should sow more. No matter what the world is thinking, we don’t think like them. This is because God’s way is different from man’s way (Isaiah 55:8-9). God has to give His only son to harvest the world today (John 3:16). This calls for faithfulness on the side of you and I in sowing according to the will of God as to enjoy divine supply.

To walk in this covenant, we must be willing to labour (1Thessalonians 4:9-12). Part of our purpose of living is to be a blessing (Genesis 12:2). God’s word instructs us to pay 10% of our income as tithe to His house (Malachi 3: 10-12). We are to take care of our home and care for our parents (Ephesians 6:1-3). Take care of servants of God (Matthew 10:41). Joyfully participate in the work of the house of the Lord, mission and evangelism. Then we can claim our divine provision. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to be a giver.

“WHATSOEVER WE SOW IS WHAT WE SHALL REAP”

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.
