  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...

PRAYING WITH POWER

Scripture Reading Acts 4:23-31
Devotional:- “And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness” (V. 31) NKJV

    When you are living by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, your prayer life will be with the power of God. This is because your utterances will proceed from the Holy Spirit. And the angels of God are ordained to carry out the word of God (Psalms 103:20). Your word will become an authority that will be executed. This will give you the experience of answered prayers.

The disciples were persecuted in the book of Acts 4. They therefore returned back to their company and prayed. It is recorded in the word of God that the place where they prayed was shaking. This is the manifestation of the power of God amidst them. That led to their empowerment to do more exploit for the gospel.

Friend, if you want to see the grace for answered prayers, then; you must make your prayers by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. This you can do by asking in your spirit man for what to pray about (Romans 8:26-27). The Holy Spirit will supply you scriptures that will release the answer to your prayers. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always be connected with you in my prayers.

“ASKING ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, GIVES YOU ACCESS TO ANSWERS”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.
