  WISE MEN Matthew 2:1-12 Devotional:- “And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.” (V. 11) NKJV Up till now, in the minds of some people, givers are foolish. Some believe that people only give to bribe. Others believe that those who give especially in the house of God have been brainwashed and deceived. Others, even Christians, believe that giving is a way to support God’s work, and it is at their discretion, with no one able to push them. They choose when and when not to give and not as anyone instructs them. So, they only give as they like. They don’t listen to the message of pay your tithe or give an offering, or build for God. The truth that this season brought us is that givers are wise men. Someone said givers give because they have faith that they will receive more than they are giving. Givers give ...

JOY

Scripture Reading: Psalms 16:1-11
Devotional:- “You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore” (V. 11) NKJV

    Please understand that joy is different from happiness. Joy comes from God and happiness are temporary excitement produced by events or occasion. If you want to live with joy in your heart and in your home. Then, you need to locate the covenant of God for joy.

Remember the word of God which tells us that joy is one of the fruits of the spirit (Galatians 5:22). This is because it is supplied by the spirit of God. The word of God says “where the spirit of the Lord
is, there is that freedom and this produces space for joy (2Corinthians 3:17). Joy is always a manifestation of the presence of God (Psalms 16:11). So, when God is with you, His seed of joy will be produced in your spirit for joy.

Friend, if you want to live with joy, them be a carrier of the presence of God. Wherever His presence is, His joy will be there. In His house and in His heart He dwells. Joy is like the oxygen for God. He cannot do without it. That is why there is no sorrow in heaven. If you therefore love to always have joy, then always be with Him. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make me your temple forever

“WHEREVER GOD IS, JOY WILL BE THERE”

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 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.
