  LIFTING Psalms 75:1-10 Devotional:- “But God is the judge. He putteth down one and setteth up another.” (V. 7) KJV It is part of God’s act of love to lift up his own people. If you have a privilege be in an office, there is every tendency that you will want use your office to help and lift the people you love, so also is God. He is highly exalted. He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. He is the creator of heaven and earth. The bible calls Him the judge, in other word, He rules and decides the case of everyone in heaven and earth. So he is willing to lift you up as the one He loves. In the sovereignty of God, I have seen God demonstrating His love by lifting the unworthy. People like Joseph, David, Solomon, Paul the apostle and a host of others. If you as a child of God enjoy a status now it is part of His good gesture to you. And whatever level you are now, do not be discouraged, for He is still taking you higher. He took Joseph from the prison to the palace (Genesis 41:...

HUMILITY TO CONNECT

HUMILITY TO CONNECT

Scripture Reading Psalms 25:8-15
Devotional:- “The humble He guides in justice, And the humble He teaches His way” (V. 9) NKJV

    If anyone is not humble, such cannot regularly connect with the Holy Spirit for inspiration. The word of God says pride goes before a fall (Proverbs 16:18). The reason a proud man will fall is because, there are many things our physical eyes cannot see or that man do not know. It takes humility to be guided out of any trap.

You are too precious to fall. So, you cannot degrade yourself to the level of pride. A proud man is belittling himself by subtracting the presence of God from his activities. So, he will be working or talking with mere head and human limitations, errors, mistakes etc, and this will soon bring shame to him.

 Friend, you cannot descend that low. You are not made to live without God. (John 15:5). Wisdom demand that you allow Him to be part of all you are doing and by all, I mean all (Psalms 23:6; Proverbs 3:5-6). This is wisdom (Matthew 7:24). No matter your degree, fourth or seventh, you are limited in understanding. You are prone to error. Don’t be too forward. Humble yourself to ask Him to help you in all things. Then, you are out for wisdom. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always recognize my place in you.

“YOU ARE TOO PRECIOUS TO BE PROUD”

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.
