SEVEN WAYS Deuteronomy 28:1-13 Devotional:- “The LORD will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways” (V. 7) NKJV      Please understand that the almighty God is with you. He is called the terrible God, the awesome God (Jeremiah 20:11). No power or kingdom can stand before Him. He descended on Mount Sinai, and the Israelites were terribly afraid. No power of the enemy can withstand Him.

GRATEFULNESS

GRATEFULNESS

Genesis 35:1-7
And he built an altar there and called the place El Bethel, because there God appeared to him when he fled from the face of his brother. (V 7)

    A wise man is always grateful because he knows that his strength is not always in his potentials but by making use of opportunities around him to achieve success. A lot of times we succeed because God is involved in it. It is therefore wisdom to you when have such understanding. This will help you to always be thankful both to God and to men.

Jacob had so much trouble at the beginning of his life that he had to run away from his father’s house. It was in the midst of this trouble that God spoke to him and promised to see him through his journey. He (Jacob) then promised to appreciate God on that spot where God spoke with him, if he could return to the place. And God kept him and he returned to appreciate the Lord.

It is often said that, he that appreciates for the good of yesterday will receive another. And that he that does not know how to show appreciation is like an armed robber who carted away one’s belongings. Please understand that being grateful is an act of wisdom. Stop murmuring or complaining. It brings destruction (Malachi 2:2).

Stop comparing yourself with others. It is not a wise attitude (2 Corinthians 10:12). You will keep rising in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, help me to always walk in the wisdom of gratitude

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 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.
