  OVERFLOWING WITH JOY Psalm 23:1-6 Devotional:- “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over” (v.5) NKJV It is the will of God in this season to fill your life with good things until you overflow with joy. This is not God’s plan for a few people but for all mankind. He intends to make everyone overflow with the good things of life. What does it mean to overflow? This simply means God want everyone to experience an abundance of good things and then flow out to others (John 10:10).  King David was sharing the testimony of his own overflowing experience. Though the enemies wanted to stop him, the Lord did it for him. Despite all the challenges and hurdles he has to pass through yet God brought him to his overflowing experience. That is why you also need to settle it in your heart that your abundance of all good things is coming. It doesn’t matter what you may be going through now; just keep working faithfully with th...

LABOUR OF LOVE

Devotional:- “For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor o love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister” (V. 10)

    There Is a need to have the understanding of the labour of love. Cultivating quality relationship is a lot of work. Most people are just looking for pleasure. They do not know that to build a good relationship of any type demands some kind of labour. This is because we all come from different background. To become one in understanding, view and focus is a lot of work. To reform an adult is virtually one of the greatest works on earth. Even, God don’t find it easy with man (Genesis 6:5-8).

The word of God says, God is not unjust to forget our work and labour of love. This simply mean that God appreciate labour of love. Everyone who gives him/herself to work toward creating healthy relation is appreciated by the Lord. The labour of love is the patient we have with each other to wisely and prayerfully communicate our differences till we can blend together as one.

Anyone who is not ready to pay these costly prices cannot build or sustain good relationship. It is not even two or three years work it is a lifetime one. It is a work on others that make us work on ourselves too. It is a work that forces you to compromise self and change to attain peace and unity in relationship. At the end, it will be a work that is really worth embarking on. So, be humble to put in your best. At the end, it shall be sweet. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to labour for my future sweetness.

“HE THAT WILL EAT THE HONEY IN THE ROCK WILL NOT MIND WEAKENING THE AXE.

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 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.
