  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...

UNITY

Psalms 133:1-3
Devotional:- “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!” (V. 1)

    Every attempt should be made to maintain unity in every good relationship. Please know that unity is not uniformity but oneness in understanding and focus. God made us in a variety. So, we should not see uniformity as unity. Our variation must be appreciated. That variety makes the world worth living, the same thing in your home. That is why it takes much maturity to attain unity and not hindering people’s peculiarity.

The word of God says, it is a good and pleasant thing when we can attain unity in our relationship. It in turn becomes a place where the anointing of God can flow from the head to the garment. It is in the place of unity that God can place His blessings. To attain unity, we must be of good understanding with each other. We must understand the place of our differences in creation. We must appreciate our differences, then; we must place importance and our labour of unity in the maturity of each other.

The foundation of maturity is when we individually sacrifice our self as a living sacrifice unto God (Romans 12:1-2). No more living for self but for God. Thereby ready to do the will of God from the heart. Then we can communicate our vision with wisdom to each other. And God will help us to be able to walk together. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, let there be grace of unity in my home.

“UNITY CAN ONLY BE ATTAINED BY THE HELP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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

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.
