STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

PULLING DOWN STRONGHOLD 

2 Corinthians 10:1-6 NKJV
casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, (V 5)

    There is a strong power God has put in a man and that is our thought; which determines our life. It rules over our life. God’s word says, for as a man thinks in his heart so is he (Proverbs 23:7). It is what we are thinking in our mind meditatively that will eventually happen in our practical life. And so, devil the enemy of God and man knows and take advantage of this weapon in our live. He carries in through our thought. He makes us think negatively, and so become fearful and doubtful.

This has become a great problem in the life of most people. They find it difficult to believe the word of God. It has made many negative in faith. Many people are afraid of the devil more than God. In fact, some people in their hearts see the devil stronger than God in one way or the other. This is what the Bible refers to as stronghold. The power that can hold us back. These are wrong thoughts that has captured our heart. Note that evil and sinful thought are silent killer of destiny 

A victor only allows what God says to dominate his mind or thought. And when the wrong thought comes, we pull it down by the word of God and by the blood of the lamb will purify our heart. No matter your past experience with the devil or pains, now you are a child of God. Don’t keep entertaining evil thoughts. Let what God says rule your thought system. Learn to say no to evil and sinful thoughts. And you will surely overcome.

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to only allow your victorious thoughts in my heart

“IT TAKES RULING OVER YOUR THOUGHTS TO BECOME A RULER”.

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
