  MERCY Romans 9:14-27 Devotional:- “So then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy” (V 16) NKJV It has often been completely impossible for any human to qualify for the things of God. This is the reason why the world looks like a place of struggle for so many people. Even many Old Testament saints couldn’t make it because of their inadequacies. For Example, if anyone had not achieved their goal on earth. I would least expect a man like Moses to be one. But because he could not fully obey the Lord, he and Aaron could not get to the Promised Land. But you and I in the New Testament have come to enjoy the abundance of the mercy of God. In the scripture we read today, Jesus said, He would have mercy on us. We are the one the bible refers to as the chosen generation. We are the people of His mercy. This is an assurance that we, by His grace, will achieve our purpose on earth, for His mercy shall see us through. The trouble in the life of our paren...

BE AN EXAMPLE

Devotional:- Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity” (V. 12).

    Everyone involved in relationship should seek to be an example. To be an example is to be a model for what is right in the relationship. It is not enough for us to know or always say what we ought to do or be doing in our relationship. It is very important that we become doer of what we are saying. If you will not do what you are saying, nobody will do it. The right mind-set is that, I must be in front to do what I am asking others to do and not just do as I say.

The word of God says we should be an example to all in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity. A life that only want to direct others without standing in front to be an example will soon be despised. With time, he/she will no longer be respected. Some people that refused to grow to maturity as a choleric, always want to lead but not by example. That way; no one will want to keep doing what they are saying.

Friend, there is no one made to be a slave for another. If you want people to follow your instructions or advises, then be the first to do it. No one can build a quality relationship or leadership when he is not an example. Please, be a doer of whatever you want others around you to do. That is the way to raise godly children. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be humble to always do what is right.

“ONLY AN EXAMPLE CAN RAISE OTHER FAITHFUL LEADERS”.

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.
