  SHARING YOUR LIFE MESSAGE 1 John 5:6-13 Devotional:- “He who believes in the Son of God has the witness in himself; he who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed the testimony that God has given of His Son” (V. 10) It is important we know that when we become believers we also become God’s messengers. God want to speak to the world through you (2 Corinthians 2:17). As messengers of Christ we must be willing to share the gospel wherever we find ourselves. Our life messages have four parts. Your life message includes your testimony. This is the story of how Christ has made a difference in your life (1 Peter 2:9). True witnesses are to simply reporting what happen to them or what they saw. These are all about; what my life was before I met Jesus, how I realized I needed Jesus; how I committed my life to Jesus, the difference Jesus has made in my life. Your life message also includes your life lessons. This is the truth God has taught you through experie...

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.

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.
