LIGHTEN YOUR BURDEN

  LIGHTEN YOUR BURDEN I Peter 5:6-11 Devotional:- “casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you” (v.7) NKJV Until a man truly learns the act of offloading the garbage of his life experience, he cannot experience the true life of joy. The truth is that joy and worry cannot co-exist. When the heart of a man is heavy, he cannot pretend to be happy. That is why he will need to lighten up always. In our scripture today, the Bible teaches us about casting our cares upon God. Our cares are things that burden our mind, which strongly hold our hearts with sorrow. These are in most cases, the challenges that we face. The way of escape the Lord has made for us from such a trap is to cast our cares on Him. This is simply by believing in His care for us and by the same faith committing those challenges to Him in prayer. After which, by faith also we receive our liberty for joy. Be aware that needs will always come to create burdens on us. That is why you must let the system of joy flow ...

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 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.
