  EYES HAVE NOT SEEN I Corinthians 2:6-16 Devotional:- “But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has prepared for those who love Him."” (V. 9) NKJV Notwithstanding the experiences of people in the world today, God’s promises concerning His children remain valid. That is why you must not allow what you are going through to make you look down on the word of God. Our scripture today simply means that God will yet do in your life things that will embarrass the world. Your current state cannot be compared with your coming glory (Romans 8:18). That is why you must not give up your hope in Christ. Refuse to be a victim of your situation. All you need to do is learn the way of God’s wisdom, which is superior to that of the world. This is the way of being guided by the Spirit and the word of God. As a believer, believe in taking to God’s instruction, notwithstanding the look of your situation. Always ask the Ho...

JOYFUL

Nehemiah 8:1-11
Then he said to them, “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” (V 10)

    One of the lifestyles of victors is that they live always in joy. If you observe some strong men you know, you will observe this in them. Sorrow has nothing good to offer any man. It will rather demoralise and evaporates our strength.

Sorrow is never a foundation of faith. It only produces fear and make men becomes very cheap for the devil to overcome. But joy is our inward delight and liberty expressed in the face of battle (Proverbs 15:13). It is a virtue that expresses the good state of man’s mind. A joyful mind is the fittest for victory in every situation. Joy gives strength to the mind of man. It is a good foundation for faith and confidence (Isaiah 12:3).

If you are aiming at living victoriously, then joyful living is essential. Haven’t understand the evil of sorrow, Nehemiah quickly warn God’s people against it. Letting them know that joy in God is they strength they have.

Friend, choose to live in joy. It is sweeter. It is the best for you. Handover your sorrow to Jesus and take His Joy (1 Peter 5:7). Always be conscious of His presence (Psalm 16:11). Then you will always find the joy of the Lord for strength that you desire.

Prayer: Lord, help me to always choose joy no matter the situation

‘JOY IS AN ATMOSPHERE FOR STRENGTH AND VICTORY’

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.
