SUCCESS YOUR PURPOSE 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Devotional:- “And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (V. 8) NLT When a person turns to the Lord, invite Jesus to his/her life, and surrender to Jesus as Lord and saviour, then he/she sincerely becomes a Christian. This is the state many in the church has not attained. Many struggle to surrender their lives to the Lord because they are afraid of failure, not able to trust God to give them success, and their love for the things of this world (1 John 2:15-17). When you sincerely surrender your life to Jesus Christ, your view of success cannot but change. Apostle Paul said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful” (2 Timothy 4:7). When you start to live for God, your definition of success will change from materials to purpose. Liv...

YOU HAVE TO FIGHT

YOU HAVE TO FIGHT

Deuteronomy 20:1-4
“When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt” (V. 4) NKJV

    God’s children must come to realize that our victory has been purchased by God but we have to fight to establish it in our life. If you have to face the devil, it will be impossible to defeat him. He was in a greater glory before than you are now. He has been in battle game before the creation of man (Revelation 12:7-8). He knows far more than we do. If we have to face him, there will be no victory; The saints in the Old Testament couldn’t withstand him. That is why Jesus came in form of man to defeat him for us (John 16:33). So, Christ has purchased for us victory and glory in God. Yet you must fight to claim your victory personally.

As we read today, God told the children of Israel that “when they go to battle.” That tells us that they must be ready for battle. The Bible says to us that we are not fighting against flesh and blood (Ephesians 6:12). This word informs us that we must be ready for battle.

When God brought the Israelites out of Egypt, He told them that He had given them their Canaan. But God instructed them that they must be ready to fight (Deuteronomy 2:24). This is because God is a Spirit And what we want in this world are physical. So, it will take a physical man to put physical things in place and that is why we are made physical. For example, it is not the way of God to help you buy your block and be your brick layer. He only needs to be in you for you to be able to do it. The one in you Is the great one. Arise and contend with the weapon of the Spirit. And physical attainment will bow to you. Peace!

DECLARATION: I will Arise and Win in The Name of Jesus.

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.
