  WORSHIP John 4:10-26 Devotional:- “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him” (v.23) NKJV Many of us have not come to the level of understanding that God is more interested in building relationship with us than in meeting our needs. Actually, He desires to meet our needs, but fundamentally, He wants a relationship first. That is why most people don’t have a constant response from God, because He has discovered that they are much more after His gifts and not after Him as God. So also when Jesus discovered that people were following Him for the sake of fish and bread, He quickly discouraged the act (John 6:25-27). One of the things that God strongly desire from human race is our worship. Not because He wants to show that He is God, but because He knows that it will help Him build a relationship with us. Observe that God called David a man after His heart. One of the reasons...

PERSISTENCE

PERSISTENCE

Scripture: Luke 18:1-7
Devotional:- “Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart,” (v. 1) NKJV

    In the school of success, temporary people may not be able to go too far. Desperate people are often met with severe frustration. Those who have learn the act of success must have learn the act of persistency. This is very vital because nothing good are easily found on the surfaces. They always demand continue digging.

To persist is to stay on a course of conviction till one get the expected result. Those who stand out in any field of life often have to persist. The woman in our scripture refused to allow time and date to discourage her. She knew what she wanted to get and she gave her best to it till she got the judgment.

Building up the habit of persistency demands clarity of purpose of life and willingness to commit all to it. To be persistent therefore demand that we define a worthy course, become convict of it, before it will deliver our expectation. Most noble course in life demand long time of preparation. So, temporary people cannot go that far. Great feet demand a deep foundation e.g., to be a medical doctor, a governor or president of a nation. These are not what you attain overnight but with persistent preparation. Get ready for greatness. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to endure to the end.

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.
