  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

CREATE A PATTERN

Isaiah 26:1-9
Devotional Verse - “With my soul I have desired You in the night, Yes, by my spirit within me I will seek You early; For when Your judgments are in the earth, The inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness” (V. 9)

    Pattern helps us to create a culture or a routine of what we like to do. The moment you create a pattern your spirit, soul and body will get adjusted to your pattern. This will always help you to flow in the place of fellowship. Pattern is the approach or method you love to employ. Pattern helps you to easily switch on in your spirit man and connect with God.

It is important that you don't leave your fellowship life to just any pattern as it may come. Yes, you should be flexible to allow the Holy Spirit to direct, but you should not be without a pattern. Someone will flow more lying on the bed. Another person will flow more kneeling down. Someone will love to have a prayer walk to be able to focus and stay awake. Another will love to just sit down to connect with God in fellowship.

Friend, since you know this is vital to the success of your Christian journey on earth, you must be ready to give it whatever it will take. All that matter is that you can focus and can be easily connected to the presence of God. When you are sure you are touching God, God will surely be touching you. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always connect with you in my spirit.

“YOUR PATTERN WILL INFLUENCE YOUR CONNECTIVITY”

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.
