DON'T HATE

  DON’T HATE Matthew 5:43-48  Devotional:- “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,” (V. 44) NKJV The subject of love is not always easy to practise between you, and those who have shown themselves as committed enemies. Those who will openly stand against you. Those who just hate you for no reason. Those who don’t pray that anything good should happen to you. Yet the Bible gave us a commandment in the midst of it all to love and never to hate them. What a great task! But until a Christian grows to this level, he cannot actually be called mature. The way to handle it is that we should bless those who curse us. Always do good to those who hate you. If they are moved by the spirit in them to do evil to you, be moved by the Spirit in you to love them. We cannot truly say we love till we can prayerfully demonstrate the character of love. In your time, consciously me...

MEN OF THE WORD

Colossians 3:12–17
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. (V. 16)

    The word of God is our sword of the spirit (Ephesian 6:17). The word is our sure word of Prophesy (2 Peter 1:19). It is the truth, that is, the law that rules heavens and earth. The word is the covenant and the eternal promise of God. It has been finding fulfilment since ages past and it shall continue to find fulfilment as we put total trust in God and we wait on Him.

The Scripture says, seek, and you shall find, ask, and you shall be given, knock and the door shall be open unto you. Children of God seek and ask and knock, all these shall be released unto you through the word which is God Himself (John 1:1). The word of God is the bases for our faith. Faith in God is faith in the word. It is the foundation for our rest and our peace in God. That means, it is on the word we stand and have hope in. It is the creative force of God. This creative force is also in us whenever we speak the word of God (Genesis 1:2-3).

The word is therefore strongly important in the life of every victorious child of God. The Word is God Himself (John 1:1). The word is Spirit and Life (John 6:63). The word gives life and strength to the mind which enhances our victory (Psalm 119:97-100).

If you will be a victor, the word must dwell in you richly, then you have a solid base for overcoming in all situations.

Prayer: Lord, help me to store your word in my heart for my victory.

‘‘THE WORD OF GOD IS GOD IN LETTERS, WHICH BECOMES ACTIVE AS MEN SPEAK IT BY FAITH’’

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

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.
