  WORSHIP John 4:10-26 Devotional:- “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him” (v.23) NKJV Many of us have not come to the level of understanding that God is more interested in building relationship with us than in meeting our needs. Actually, He desires to meet our needs, but fundamentally, He wants a relationship first. That is why most people don’t have a constant response from God, because He has discovered that they are much more after His gifts and not after Him as God. So also when Jesus discovered that people were following Him for the sake of fish and bread, He quickly discouraged the act (John 6:25-27). One of the things that God strongly desire from human race is our worship. Not because He wants to show that He is God, but because He knows that it will help Him build a relationship with us. Observe that God called David a man after His heart. One of the reasons...

Psalms 65:1-8
Devotional Verse :- “Blessed is the man You choose, And cause to approach You, That he may dwell in Your courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of Your house, Of Your holy temple” (V. 4)

    As human, we don’t just go to other people’s house when we don’t know whether they will accept us in their house or not. We only do this under divine instruction or compulsion in our spirit. Fellowship only occurs when someone welcomes you to His fold and you can have time to interact as friends. This also goes with God.

There is a need for relationship permission before fellowship can be effected. The word of God says “Blessed is the man who God choose and cause to approach Him…” so, in fellowship with God we secure the permission of God to come into His realm. Fellowship with God is accessing the realm of God. The reason people are careful of who they welcome is because they could be influenced negatively. That is why the bible advices the righteous on choosing friends (Proverbs 12:26). But God has promised never to reject any human when we desire to come to Him (John 6:37).

Friend, fellowship is one great thing that you need to exploit to become your best in life. Unlike people who may reject your proposal to visit them, God is giving everyone including you reading this devotion an open invitation (Matthew 11:28). He wants to empower you through fellowship. He wants to influence you for positive character to succeed. He wants to show you the way to succeed (Psalms 25:14). This is because He sent you here on assignment to fulfill a destiny for Him. He wants to inspire you to operate above limitation (Job 32:8). This is not strictly by invitation. You have it now. Arise and come. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me not to miss out in your presence

“GOD’S INVITATION IS SPECIAL BUT OPEN TO ALL”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

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.
