  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...

CONSUMING FIRE

Devotional:- “For our God is a consuming fire” (V. 29)

    One of the attributes of God is that He is a consuming fire. There are different categories of fires. Some fires cannot burn. Some fires can burn and turn the particles into ashes. But there is a fire that consumes and allows nothing to remain. It normally swallows and is removed from existence. God is that fire.

That is why your enemy cannot always move closer. As good and loving as God is. Yet when anyone is against Him or His children, they face His wrath. Wherever God is, no unrighteous weapon cannot prosper there. No weapon of wickedness can survive in the presence of God (Isaiah 54:17).

That is why you will need to always see God around you in your imagination, and He has promised to be a fence of fire all around you and glory in your midst (Zechariah 2:5). When your fence Is made with a consuming fire, no one dares move closer. This is who God is for you. All that is important is that you are living in His will to always please Him (Proverbs 16:7). Know therefore from today that you are untouchable for the enemy and all the forces of wickedness. Always see this God around you and your surroundings shall be with peace.

Prayer: Lord, help me to always see you around me.

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).

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.
