GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

FULL OF GRACE

2 Samuel 9:1-10 NKJV
Now David said, “Is there still anyone who is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?” (V 1)

    Men don’t believe in showing kindness towards someone who has offended   them. We look at them as a bad person and believe nothing good should happen to them. Most people believe the wicked should be paid back in their own coin. This therefore makes us hate those who hate us and love people who loves us. But Jesus said, this does not make us different from the people of the world. It is true that the wicked should be paid with wickedness but not through you. Leave vengeance to God. It is better when they are rewarded by God for everyone will see their shame and great falling. So, leave vengeance for God. We are to show them mercy and grace all the time.

Saul was an open enemy of David. He sought to kill him with all he has, until he killed himself. But David knows that not by Power or by might that he was granted victory. So, he knew he should be gracious to Saul’s family for the sake of Jonathan his friend. That is the reason he looked out for anyone in his family that he may show kindness to them. This shows him a wise winner indeed.

If you see a relation of those who are against you, don’t hesitate to help them. If there is anything within your power to do to assist them, do it. And God will be happy with you. This proves you more matured. You overcome evil with good. Pray for them and let God be happy with you. And you shall be blessed.

Prayer: Lord, help to always overlook offences and help everyone


“WHEN YOU LET GOD FIGHT FOR YOU, YOU ENJOY YOUR PEACE”.

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.

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.
