  RELEASING OTHERS Matthew 18:21-35   Devotional:- "So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses” (V. 35) NKJV Men can easily shout, “Away with him, kill him,” to others because they are not the offender. Very many parents will bitterly discipline their children for an offence they too have committed in the past, for which they were not killed. It is always easy to be a judge, though most judges cannot stand the face of trial. That is why the word of God instructs us not to judge others (Matthew 7:1-6). The scripture we read today reveals the wickedness of men. A man who owed his master so much, just like we all owe God so much. He was forgiven by his master, but cannot forgive his fellow servant. He rather locked him up in police custody for torment. His master heard and also reversed his decision on him for judgement.  Friend, who are the people you have refused to forgive? No matter what they...

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.”

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.
