  EXCELLENT MIND Genesis 40:4-15 Devotional:- “So he asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in the custody of his lord's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?" (v.7) NKJV Man needs to wake up to the truth that when our heart is joyful, it operates more in an excellent way. The devil, having known this power, tries to keep people in sorrowful thought. Sorrow will break a man’s system down to further confusion, while positive thinking will bring forth a solution to your situation (Isaiah 12:3). Joseph was simply wise to retain joy in his heart despite all he was going through. He simply disallows sorrow in his heart. That was why he could operate far better than others in the prison yard and even could think of how to comfort them. His mind could still bring out a solution to the problem of others. If not, the day he was brought forth from prison to stand before Pharaoh, he would have lost his mind and would have been a failure. See, joy is a powerful lubric...

STRONG MEN

STRONG MEN

Joshua 14:10-15
Devotional:- As yet I am as strong this day as on the day that Moses sent me; just as my strength was then, so now is my strength for war, both for going out and for coming in. (V 11)

     Victory in life is not for the weak but for the strong. This does not mean we have to start body-building to overcome in life. But we need to have the wisdom that gives birth to strength. If you notice any man who always over-power others, what it takes is only strength through wisdom. Weak people have no portion here on earth. Some are just thirty-two years, and are living as somebody of over ninety-five years old.

Caleb was a strong man and we see this all through his life. He was one of the twelve that was sent by Moses to spy the land of Canaan in Numbers 13 and 14. Ten of the spies came back with negative report, but Caleb and Joshua came with a good one – the Godly and goodly kind of report. This is because of their knowledge of God. they knew He is a great God that cannot fail. This same Caleb is saying in our scripture here today, that he could still go to war at eighty. Not requesting for battle on a plain ground but at the mountain top.

If you too want to be strong all the days of your life, then learn these two secrets of Caleb. The first is that He knew God. He was a man of knowledge (Daniel 11:32). He was also living in the wisdom of God (Proverb 24:5). God is the giver of strength (Isaiah 40:29). Seek to know Him and he will supply you. Don’t die in weakness, Seek to know and believe in Him. It is knowledge that make strong. Ignorant create doubt and fear. Refuse to be defeated by the troubles of this world. If any will will live in sickness or the affliction of life, its not you. If any will live frustrated in failure its not you. Give yourself to seeking knowledge and you will be made strong.

Prayer: Lord, the great I am is in me, I will not be defeated or frustrated
