FILLING HIS MIND

  FILLING HIS MIND Psalms 8:1-9  Devotional:- “What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him? “ (V.4) NKJV When two people are at the peak of love, their entire minds will be full of one another. There is nothing else that will gain stronger attention at such a time. If you employ a man who is always thinking of his wife, may he work. He will always have his rapt attention for the woman. This is because love is one of the things that does not want shared attention in the mind of man. And as much as men may have their minds filled with the thought of their lovers, as much as they can be empty of it sometimes. But God is not a man who can sometimes forget His own beloved. The scripture we read today says, His mind is full of you. That is, He is always thinking of you. His entire attention is on you. That is why you need to look at your challenges. It can never swallow you. It is for the purpose of your glory (James 1:12). He is working out someth...

RESPONSIBILITY

Devotional:- “By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren” (V. 16)

    Building a healthy relationship demands that each party is responsible. In a situation where a partner is not responsible, it can frustrate the one that is responsible. This is exactly the way we treat God a lot of time. Man is always discouraged by the devil not to be responsible towards God. Whenever we have needs, we always want God to be responsible towards us, but not us being responsible to God. This is always the bone of contention between man and God. To be responsible is to always carry out part of the relationship deal.

The word of God says, this is how we can know love, because Jesus laid down His life for us. Therefore, we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. To be responsible is to continue to sacrificially take care of each other in relationship. It means, meeting the needs of each other and not expecting one person to meet all the needs. In some cases, one person will be saving his resources for personal goal, while one person takes care of all things for the family. This is what some people call marriage.

Friend, whoever is not responsible is a parasite and a liability. Check your body parts; they are all responsible to each other. Even if your spouse supplies all the things in the house, don’t sit down like that. Make sure you have a great role to play also. Create them if there are none, so that your relationship does not break down because someone is no longer able. Housewife is not equal to idleness. Be wise. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to take my place in my relationship.

“HE THAT PUT IN NOTHING IN ANY RELATIONSHIP WILL NOT GET ANYTHING SERIOUS ON THE LONG RUN”.

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.
