  SUBMIT TO HIM John 14:12-24  “Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (V. 23) NKJV   Sometimes on the platform of love, there is nothing men cannot offer to one another. If you truly love a man you will not want to reject or disobey him. You will want to do as much as it is in your capacity. You will not want to turn him down. Can you imagine how strictly you want to keep to an appointment with a loved one? If we have attached so much importance to responding to our lover, how much more God. If you truly love God it will be natural for you to submit to His will. You will not need to argue or ask too many questions. It will be a pleasure submitting to His will. Jesus said in the scripture we read today, if anyone loves me he will keep my words. In other word he will submit or obey my word. Then the reward here is that the father will also love such one i...

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.
