  A BELOVED Romans 9:23-26  Devotional:- “I will call them my people who are not my people, and her beloved who was not beloved.” (V. 25) When a man lacks true lovers around him, he is bound to go through some frustrating experiences and discouragement. During the period of challenges, you will know that even those who say they love you are rather pretenders who come around you only for what they will get from you. When a man is going through a trying situation, people you expect to come around and show some love and level of understanding sometimes desert him. If this is what is happening to you at the moment, I need to bring to your awareness that God truly loves you. He calls you his beloved. God has a special love for you. He fully demonstrated this by allowing His son to die on the cross for your sake (John 10:11). Do you know that this is not ordinary? He really loves you. He is planning for you more than you can ever imagine? Do you know that all that God is doing both ...

GIVING

John 3:13-21
Devotional:- “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (V. 16).

    One of the major responsibilities to cultivate in a good relationship is giving. This is very foundational; because it is on it every good relationship is built. Without it, no relationship will stand. People don’t often want to part with what they have, but love is the virtue that can draw it out. Most people treat their income as their life, but love is sharing our lives with others.

The word of God gives us an example of how God also have to give before He can have human being. What makes giving valuable in relationship is the sacrificial nature. It is the willingness to sacrifice that proofs the genuineness of our love. So, when people can’t part with what they have, that is a proof of fake love. That is why God will always test our level of love by asking us to give. God tested Abraham by asking him to sacrifice his son.

It Is not necessary volume giving that matters in love but a willing heart. Giving in love is sowing to harvest the best of relationship. It is as God gives us His only son that He has all of us. So also, the level of sacrifice you are willing to make is what determines what we get out at last. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace of a giver.

“GIVING IS SOWING FOR A GOOD HARVEST IN RELATIONSHIP”.

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.
