  FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD Romans 5:1-11 Devotional:- “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life” (V. 10)  As a kingdom citizen please known that God wants to be your best friend. This is because intimacy is part of your act of worship. It is true that God is our maker and redeemer yet he wants to be our friend. Remember we were made to live continually in God’s presence but it is sin that makes us loose that (Gen 3, Roman 3:23)  In our scripture for today we saw that it was grace through the sacrifice of the cross that gives us access to friendship with God (2 Corinthians 5:18). Our friendship with God does not mean casual acquaintance but close and trusted relationships just like the best man in a wedding. In the palace the servant must keep their distance from the king but there are some people in circle of intimate and trusted friends with the king. They enjoy free an...

GOOD FOUNDATION

Devotional:- “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock” (V. 24)

    The human race has always been deceived into pleasure mentality (Revelation 12:9). This singular factor has excluded multitude from being able to walk in wisdom. It closes doors of joy against many because, they feel they are not enjoying as others. It excludes multitude from financial wisdom because they think they have to pursue pleasure. The worst of it all is that it disallows people from having a good and solid home because pleasure has become a priority for many.

It is important for us to know that it is wisdom to build our family lives on the foundation of which the author of relationship has given. This is by obeying these instructions of the Lord for relationship. The Bible spells out how a home should run. Jesus likens it to a building which a wise man who builds should build on the rock. When storm comes and wind blows, the house could not fall.

Friend, let us follow the way of the Lord in order to have a strong family relationship. Don’t follow human culture and tradition (Romans 12:2). The word of God will guide you to true love because God Himself is love (1 John 4:7-8). The way of the Lord is not like that of your friends and customs. We are now new creature in Christ Jesus. Following the way of the Lord is wisdom. By that way, you will have God in Control of relationship that cannot be taken over by the devil. And your home shall be strong. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help my relationship to be on the right foundation.

BUILDING TO PATTERN HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE BEST

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 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.
