  BECOMING LIKE CHRIST Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the first born among many brethren” (V. 29) The third purpose of your life is to become like Christ. From the very beginning God intend to make man to be like Himself (Gen 1:26). So like God, we are made a spirit and our spirit lives the body. We are intellectual, we can think and solve problems. We are relational, i.e. we can give and receive love. We also have a moral conscience to discern right from wrong which make us accountable to God. God’s ultimate goal for you on earth is not comfort but character. He wants you to grow up and become like Christ. This does not mean losing your personality. Christlikeness is all about transforming your character and not your personality. Every time you forget that character development is the reason you are here you frustrate yourself. So, life is quite challenging because God is always attem...

WORKING TOGETHER

1 Corinthians 3:5-17
Devotional Verse - “For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, you are God's building” (V. 9)

    Fellowship is working together. Whenever a group or set of people are working together to achieve a common goal, they are in fellowship. Been in fellowship demands our coming to the same level and share as fellow in the same ship. People who are journeying together in the same ship have common destination in mind. This makes them to work together and make the goal achievable.

The word of God says, we are God’s fellow workers. This means by working together for the Lord as we serve in His vineyard, we are fellow in the same ship. The reason most teamwork is difficult either in office or in the house of God is that some people feel superior to other. But when people in service are in fellowship, then teamwork becomes easier, because they will work with one spirit and one focus (Genesis 11:6). This is the secret of the church.

The beauty of fellowship is that it becomes easier to share our strength. No one notices who is weak or who is strong. We all work together in love of Christ. That will put the enemy out of business and we can break barriers. But this is a product of fellowship (Amos 3:3). By this wisdom of fellowship, you will keep winning. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always enjoy the blessing of fellowship

“FELLOW IN THE SAME SHIP ARE A STRONG TEAM”

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 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.
