  CHILDREN OF GOD I John 3:1-3  Devotional:- “Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him” (V.1) NKJV One of the unique things on earth is that, each one belongs to one family or the other. Some are from a great family, their name sounds great, and others are from a family that is not well-known. The truth is that, the lineage each of us belongs to, sometimes speaks and shows in our live. Those who are seen as children of great people in the world are often counted as privileged. But the scripture we read today is aimed at making you appreciate the privilege of being a child of God. It doesn’t matter whether you are born into a great family on earth or not. God has decided to bestow His love on you by calling you His child (Galatians 4:7). This is the greatest family in heaven and earth. The moment you are born again, you are born of God (John 1:12). Not of...

PURPOSEFUL

1 Samuel 17:41-51 NKJV
This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. (V 46)

    There is a need for us to understand that God judge the intent of the heart. The Bible says, “by Him actions are weighed (1 Samuel 2:3). Your purpose of doing anything matters to God. This determines whether He will help you or not. Anything you do to acclaim a self-glory; don’t be surprised the end result will not be successful. God’s word says my glory will I not share with another (Isaiah 42:8). Therefore, you must watch the purpose of your step or actions anytime and every time.

David knew this as one of the factors of having the support of God for victory. So, he told Goliath that the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. In other words, he was standing that God may be exalted. He has automatically engaged God in this battle. And when God is involved, victory is inevitable.

Make sure everything you do is to glorify God. Both in prayer, in preaching the gospel, in giving, in counselling, in assistance, in going for an examination, interview or facing a panel or in facing life’s challenges. God will do everything to always give you victory that you may glorify Him. Never you have selfish motive, it will make you lose God in your battle. Let His glory always be your motive and your motivation, then you will always win.

Prayer: Lord, let all I do only be for your glory

“YOUR PURPOSE DETERMINES THE END POINT”

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.
