  PEACE Proverbs 12:15-25 Devotional:- “Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil, But counselors of peace have joy” (v.20) NKJV Two virtues often work together, and they are hardly separable; they are peace and joy. You cannot have one without the other. The moment one of them is with you, it will draw the second. This is because they are both products of God’s presence. Wherever the kingdom of God is established either in the house or office, surely peace and joy of the Lord will be present there (Galatians 5:22, Romans 14:17). The scripture we read today said there shall be joy for those who promote peace. Jesus says Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God (Matthew 5:9). And you know that God dwell in the heart of His children (I Corinthians 3:16). You also know that God’s presence commands joy (Psalms 16:11). When you receive God’s grace for joy, peace also follows you. A sorrowful man is a dangerous man. Sorrow promotes violence in the h...

JOY 

Devotional:- “Therefore with joy you will draw water From the wells of salvation” (V. 3) NKJV

    


    It is important that you know that one of the virtue for our strength in life is joy (Nehemiah 8:10). Please choose to live in joy for the rest of your life. This is because you are created for joyful living. If you don’t consciously make this choice, you have also made a wrong choice. The nature of man is fashioned to only have his best in joy. The enemy having known this always wants to people to be in sorrow. The only sets of people that will enjoy great strength to the end are the joyful one.

Our scripture today said with joy you will fetch out of the well of salvation. God is the source of true strength. He is the well of our salvation. He is the well of our strength (Isaiah 40:29). The drawing vessel from this well is joy. God dwells in joyful atmosphere (Psalms 16:11). Sorrow cannot enter His presence. It will take you being joyful to enter His presence and be able to draw on His strength daily (Psalms 100:4).

Having made your choice of joy be careful to keep fellowshipping with joyful people (Proverbs 13:20). Love to hear good news and testimonies of joy. Stand against celebration of sorrows in your fellowship and you will be able to keep the strength of God flowing in you.

PRAYER: Lord, Baptize Me into The Spirit of Joy.

“JOY IS THE DRAWER OF STRENGTH IN GOD.”

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.

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.
