MEDITATION Psalm 1:1-6 Devotional:- “But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night..” (v.2) NKJV      God’s word describes someone blessed because he/she meditates on the word of God, day and night. How can this be? The word of God is the source of inspiration that strengthens us to perform (John 1:1-3). The Bible told us that God is a spirit; therefore, meditating on the word of God is drawing on the strength of the spirit (John 6:63).

BE DELIBERATE

Scripture Reading Matthew 16:13-23
Devotional:- “Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven” (V. 17) NKJV

    It’s important we know that it is either a man is influenced by the Holy Spirit or by the spirit of the world. Knowing this will help us to choose which spirit should use us or inspire us at a time. That is why the word of God says; the spirit is subject to us (1 Corinthians 14:32). This means, we can make our choice.

The Holy Spirit inspired Peter to speak the truth about the person of Jesus in Matthew 16:16. Jesus commended him of being inspired by the Holy Spirit. Shockingly, in the same chapter, Peter allowed himself to be inspired by the devil and Jesus rebuked him (Matthew 16:23). This is because Peter was not conscious that the devil could speak through him. That is why the word of God told us to test every spirit (1 John 4:1).

You will see people acting wrongly and they will give the excuses that it was the devil. That is why you and I need to be deliberate in allowing only the spirit of God to inspire our actions. This is by been deliberate in testing every spirit before acting. Be sure the ideas or instructions in your spirit is according to the word of God. Measure every inspiration by the word of God. Make it a deliberate thing that in any place or situation is sure you are always inspired by the Holy Spirit. Either you are playing, joking with friends at home or in the office. Always connect with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and you shall be signs and wonders. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, teach me only to allow your Spirit in my heart.

“IF YOU ARE NOT CONSCIOUSLY INSPIRED BY GOD, YOU WILL BE UNCONSCIOUSLY INSPIRED BY THE FLESH”

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.

YOU HAVE TO FIGHT Deuteronomy 20:1-4 Devotional:- “When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt” (V. 4) NKJV      God’s children must come to realize that our victory has been purchased by by the blood of Jesus, but we have to fight to establish it in our lives. If you have to face the devil, it will be impossible to defeat him. he was in a greater glory before than you are now. He has been in a battle game before the creation of man (Revelation 12:7-8). He knows far more than we do.
