SETBACK

  SETBACK Genesis 39:10-21 Devotional:- “Then Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners were confined. And he was there in the prison” (v.20) NKJV Most people do not yet understand that what we call a setback, a lot of time is a set-up to set us to our top. Setback, as viewed by people, is demotion, but it is rather an opportunity to retreat and re-fire for greater victory. When the purpose of a thing is not known, men are bound to abuse it. Today, we read about Joseph, who was thanking God for being promoted from a slave to a house overseer. He always tried to put his best into his assignment, and by this, he always had joy. At this time, the enemy wanted to damage his testimony by the temptation of sin, but he stood his ground for God (2 Timothy 2:22). But then he faced something like a demotion to prison. This looks like an act of wickedness from God that he was trying to please, but Joseph knew that there is a price for righteo...

DISCOVER YOURSELF

DISCOVER YOURSELF

Scripture: John 1:19-28
Devotional:- He said: "I am 'The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Make straight the way of the LORD,"' as the prophet Isaiah said."  (V.23) NKJV

    In the school of success, self-discovery is a major factor. This has to do with understanding your composition. It has to do with understanding your strength, your area of grace and the very area you are best to fit-in in life. No one is made to succeed in all things but each one is wired to be the best in some area.

Just like a round object may struggle to enter a square hole, so also life will be a struggle when one does not discover self. This has nothing to do with age. Until man discover himself, he will not be himself. He will only stumble into success once a while and his life will not be predictable. Devil cannot stop your success; he can only deceive you away from knowing your strength. Your strength to succeed is so wired into you that you can never finish using it in your life time. That is why all men should succeed

To discover yourself is to discover your strength and weakness. What you are easily driven towards, what put you on and what put you off. What set you ablaze and what water you down. Discovering yourself includes your method of achieving somethings. I call it your pattern. Discover tour temperament and your strong passion. This is possible when you realize you are special and peculiar (Psalms 139:13-14). Ask for the help of Holy Spirit and your eyes will be open. Peace.

PRAYER: Holy Spirit reveal myself to me

“IT IS DISCOVERY THAT LEADS TO RECOVERY”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

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.

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.
