  OVERFLOWING PROSPERITY Zechariah 1:13-21 Devotional:- “Again proclaim, saying, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts: "My cities shall again spread out through prosperity; The LORD will again comfort Zion, And will again choose Jerusalem'"” (V.17) NKJV At the end of the year, God intends to prosper and supply you with great and pleasant riches (Psalms 65:11). When someone is not prospering in life, everything about him will look odd. When a person is not prosperous, there are so many things responsible. It might be that he is not working in God’s knowledge and understanding; it could also be that he is not working in God’s covenant. This is paying your tithe, offering, blessing the poor, and taking care of your parent, children and men of God. It could also be that he is not faithful to his staff. Such disobedience makes God remove man’s prosperity and set a devourer to his life till he learn his lesson (Joel 2:25, Haggai 1:6-11). But the word of God is powerful, sharper tha...

OLD AND NEW

Scripture Reading: Hebrews 8:7-13
Devotional:- “For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place would have been sought for a second.” (V. 7) NKJV

    Whenever you open your Bible, you see Old Testament and New Testaments. The word testament is the same as covenants. It is therefore old covenants and new covenants. The old covenant is a shadow for the new. In other word, what God gave us in the new covenant have preparation shadow effect that is made substantial in the New Testament.

In the Old Covenant, it was the life of the animals that have been sacrificed. Thereby, some men have taken it to be a little thing to do. So, they know when they sin, it is a matter of an animal and God will overlook. In the New Testament is sealed by the blood of Jesus. That is why after been saved, you cannot keep going back to sin, else, the person may lose the grace of salvation (Romans 6:1-2; Luke 9:62).

Jesus said “He has not come to abolish the Old Testament but to fulfill it (Matthew 5:17). The blood of Jesus that purchase God’s covenant right for us has given us the grace of God which gives us access to the blessing of God not withstanding our past as long as we repent. All blessings both in the old and new are yours (1 Corinthians 3:21). Just do your part of the covenant to obey the Lord in all you do. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be faithful to be able to enjoy all your blessings.

“ALL HAVE BEEN PAID FOR, JUST DO YOUR PART”

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.
