PALMS OF HIS HAND

  PALMS OF HIS HAND Isaiah 49:14-20  Devotional:- “See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands; Your walls are continually before Me.” (V.16) NKJV Sometimes in the course of the journey of life, we look at ourselves and ask questions. Who created me? Why am I created? Such times make life look not worth living; ungodly men at such times could consider death as a better option than living. When they see others laughing, they ask, what is making them laugh? Friend, Your laughter will soon come. Do you know that you are a special creature of God? The scripture we read today said you are inscribed in the palms of God’s hand. That means he loves you and is not willing to forget you. In Isaiah 49:15, He said, others could forget you, but He will not. When a man is in love with a woman, they take the pictures of each other all around in their books, bags and even in their bible. They look at the picture and have a feeling of love. They are never ashamed to show it to others....

SELF ESTEEM

SELF ESTEEM 

Scripture: Psalms 139:12-18
Devotional:- "I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well” (v. 14) NKJV

    To be a success, one of the factors we must labour to attain is to build self-value which produces self-esteem. Self-value is seen the good and the grace in ourselves. It is realizing that no matter how bad we are, there are so many good things about us. The reason why many struggle before they can have self-esteem is because they place their value of life on money or material things. So, when they don't have as such, they feel like a failure, some even feel inferior to others because they compare themselves with others (Numbers 13:33). Some have unrealistic expectations about their lives which makes them crash into low self-esteem, instead of realizing their capacity.

To build quality self-esteem, we have to redefine our life values. Stop looking and valuing yourself based on material thing. You are of more value than that (Matthew 10:21). Stop taking to heart the human comment but the word of God who is your creator. Only God have the final say over your life (Jeremiah 29:11)

As a child of God, the spirit of God is in you. All you need to develop self-esteem or self-value is to study, accept and celebrate what God is saying about you. Keep celebrating what God has given to you but not what He has not. And you will succeed. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to see your goodness in my life always.

“YOU WILL NOT ATTEMPT TO GO BEYOND HOW YOU SEE YOURSELF”

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11).

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.
