FORGIVING YOURSELF

  FORGIVING YOURSELF Luke 22:54-62  Devotional:- “So Peter went out and wept bitterly.bitterly.” (V.62) NKJV Before a man can begin to enjoy the expressive love of God in his life, he must learn the act of self-forgiveness. Self-condemnation is always a terrible permission for the devil to take over in the life of a believer. This can make him lose his self-worth in God’s presence. It can make a believer lose his authority in Christ. It can make a believer lose his joy and build an environment of sorrow. And you need to know that the environment of sorrow removes from you the presence of God. He only dwells where there is fullness of joy (Psalms 16:11). Unforgiveness can make a man build an atmosphere of fear and then permit the presence of demons. This also breeds discouragement and frustration and makes the life of its victim miserable. The wonderful thing in the scripture we read today is that, though Peter denied Christ publicly and committed a grievous sin, he did not let...

KNOWING HIS WAYS

KNOWING HIS WAYS

Devotional:- “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are my ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.” (V. 9) NKJV

    One of the things we need to know in God is His ways. If we don’t know His ways, we may not be able to follow Him. When you see anyone demonstrating the power of God, it is because His ways have been made known to him/her. God’s word says He made his ways known to Moses and His act to the children of Israel.

His ways are His methods and His approaches. These are how God goes about doing His things. These are His approach to matters. These are His reaction to life (Psalm103:7). God will not do anything for the fun of it. There is a purpose God wants to do things in His ways. His ways make His power works in our lives. Sometimes we think, must it go that way? Or can’t we do it another way? But His ways are not mere method but approach to His power.

Christians are men and women who are living like Christ. They live in His ways. They approach life matters like Him. The three and half years of ministry of Jesus were to show us the way of the father so that we can live like Him.

Friend, if you really want to see God’s power manifesting in your life, start to study His ways. When He needed water, what did he do? When He needed money, what did He do? When He opens the blind eyes, what did He do? The principle of God’s life was revealed to us in Christ and since it is His principle, it will work anywhere. Peace!

ASK: Lord, Open My Eyes To Know Your Ways.

“PRINCIPLES WELL UNDERSTOOD WILL WORK ANYWHERE.”

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.
