  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

A WARRIOR

Exodus 15:1-10
Devotional:- “The LORD is a man of war; the LORD is His name”. (V. 3)

    Looking at the reality of the affairs of life makes us understand that we are here for battle (Ephesians 6:12). We are often faced with spiritual battles and psychological battles. The word of God has not put us in the dark that our lives shall be full of challenges (John 16:33). We have to face challenges in life because they built us strong to conquer. A student who is reading to succeed academically is acting. So also, is a man who is pursuing a business breakthrough. They will both need to contend with some forces to make it.

People who get involved in military battles know that the strength of the force behind a team determines the result of a war. That is what people with military strategy always employed to help nations overcome.

I want to introduce to you the greatest war strategist. And that is your God. When He is the one fighting for you, your enemies are in trouble. He fought for Israel one day at the Red Sea and the testimony is what we are reading today. When He fights for you, there shall always be victory (Deuteronomy 1:30). He cannot lose any battle. He is a man of war (Exodus 15:3). Commit the challenges of your life into His hand and you will become undefeatable in all the battles of life.

Prayer: Lord, take over the battles of my life.

“WHEN YOU HAND TO HIM, YOU EARN YOUR VICTORY”

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.
