  HOW REAL SERVANTS ACT Mark 10:35-45 Devotional:- “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (V. 43).   The world defines greatness in terms of power, possessions, prestige and position but God determined your greatness by how many people you serve. This is quite contrary to the world view. Jesus called Himself servant and to be like Him is to be a servant. That is why it is so important to have a servant’s heart. God often test our heart by asking us to serve even outside our shape or area of interest. Your priority area of service should be in your area of shape, but God could demand for your service wherever needed. Looking at how a servant act is important because one could serve in a church for years and not be a real servant. Real servants make themselves available to serve. If you only serve when it is convenient, then you are not a good servant (2 Timothy 2:4). Real servants pay attention to needs, always lo...

WHAT IS SUCCESS?

1 Samuel 17:31-39
Devotional:- “Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God." (v. 36)

    A major hidden challenge in the life of most people today is the inability to define what success is. Due to this ignorance, people try to attain success in a wrong way, pursuing what is not success. This ignorance has made many to put the cart before the horse and had made life a total struggle. The biggest trouble of the world today is people trying to become successful in a wrong way.

Success is a state of being courageous and confidence to always succeed. To succeed is to achieve a desired goal or result. But success is a status of being capable to achieve desired result in life. Success could better be seen as a personal status of life. Success is a state of life when you are completely contented or happy with what you are. This is due to fact that you knowing you can always get your desired result.

Success is a state of life where your life becomes predictable (Psalms 23:1). It is a state of life where a man has developed the skill for an achievement and he is confident about it.

Success is not the material achievements but rather the inner resilience ability to achieve without stress. Material thing can finish, but success is a life pattern that can always reproduced. Success is whom you are. It is an ability that has been formed and will be part of you forever. It is therefore this ability that we need to build and we will keep succeeding. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to build up success in me.

“SUCCESS IS WHO YOU ARE AND NOT WHAT YOU HAVE”

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 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.
