  REHEARSAL FOR ETERNITY Ecclesiastes 3:9-15 Devotional:- “He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end” (V.11) It is important you realize that life here is a rehearsal for eternity. Just like you spend nine month in your mother’s womb, but that was a preparation for the real life, so also is life here compared to eternity. No matter how many years you spend here it is not up to one percent of eternity.  The scripture we read today says that God has planted eternity in our heart. That is why you don’t want to die. But as God’s kingdom citizen, death is not your termination but transition. So, choosing where to spend eternity is what we do here. This is by choosing to relate with Jesus the son of God or with sin and devil. That means these two relationship determines where you will spend your eternity (John 3:16).  The best way to live as a child of God ...

PRINCIPLE OF COMMUNICATION

Devotional:- “Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt, that you may know how you ought to answer each one” (V. 6)

    Communication is a singular factor that is so much needed to build and grow any relationship. When people don’t take this serious, they will struggle in their relationship. No matter the kind of relationship, Communication is the key. Since we know how important relationship is to each of us, we must therefore give attention to learning the principle of communication.

The principle of communication demands that anyone who wants to share must create the right atmosphere. Good atmosphere will help your hearers to open both their hearts and ears to listen and understand what you are saying. it also demands that we have a good understanding and clarity of what we intend to share with others. It demands that we should not communicate with a bitter heart; else, we shall be resisted. It also demands that communication should be with honour and respect for whosoever we are communicating with (Romans 12:10). Even if you are rebuking or reprimanding, please learn to do it in love (Ephesians 4:5).

Communication demands that we are patient with others. Some are slow learner while others are fast learner. A good communicator must also be a good listener. After sharing with others, he should listen to response from them. Communication is actually like an intercourse. It helps us to penetrate into each other’s life. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, teach me to be a good communicator.

“TWO CAN ACTUALLY BE ONE, ONLY BY EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION”

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.
