YOU ARE FROM GOD

  YOU ARE FROM GOD Colossians 1:9-18 Devotional:- “For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him” (V. 16) One of the greatest troubles of human life is people living out of their purpose. Until you find your purpose and fit into it, life will continue to be a struggle. Locating the meaning of human life is one of the greatest adventures someone can embark on. This is because when the purpose of a thing is not known abuse is inevitable. That is why the human life is so abused today.  As God’s kingdom citizens, finding the purpose of life and the meaning of life becomes easier when we source for it from the word of God. The best purpose of a product is known by the maker. To locate our purpose on earth, we must begin with our maker. The word of God says God made the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1).

BE AN EXAMPLE

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.
