  HAPPY CHILDREN Ephesians 6:1-4 Devotional:- “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right” (V. 1) NKJV  Children are always very happy. Research said an average child laughs between 300 to 400 times in a day. They sometimes wonder why Daddy and Mummy don’t laugh as they do. That is the reason children also need the wisdom to sustain their Joy despite their age. Our scripture today teaches children who want to remain happy to be obedient to their parents. God organizes the home as a school of life for children and parents, and is the major teacher. As long as your parent teaches you in the way of the Lord, be obedient to them. Honour your parents always. To honour means to respect and yield to their guide. By so doing, you will make them glad, and you will also remain a joyful person all the days of your life.  Always remember that it is what you so that you will reap. Their words may not look like wisdom to you now, this is because of your level of maturit...

FATHER OF LIGHT

FATHER OF LIGHT

1 John 1:1-10
Devotional:- “This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.” (V. 5) NKJV

    Our God is referred to as the God of light. He dwells in great light (1 Timothy 6:16). He is referred to as the father of light (James 1:17). He is the creator of light. In this light is the strength and the life of men (John 1:4).

When the Bible referred to God as light it interprets quite some things of benefit to us. It means God is the master over darkness. Darkness here could stand for the devil, evil or wickedness. The Bible says the light shines in the darkness and the darkness cannot comprehend it (John 1:5). In other words wherever God is, the devil, evil or wickedness cannot prosper there. When we dwell in God and He in us, the evil and the wicked forces of this world cannot overpower us. God dwells in you when you ask Him to come into your heart and when you are baptized in the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 3:16).

Light also means understanding and brightness of the mind. From God comes understanding (Job 32:8). Every man is only strong or successful at the level of his understanding. It is the correct assimilation of knowledge that produces wise action. Light also means discretion for direction. The more you humbly relate with God the more your understanding will be. God gives understanding both for wisdom and discretion through His word (Psalm 119:115, 130). When you keep relating with God, the light of discretion will increase in your life. Why others are stumbling you will keep running and keep advancing. Stop walking in darkness. Whenever you are walking in sin, you are walking in darkness. Sin will make you a victim of darkness (1 John 3:8). Flee from sin (1 Timothy 6:11). Hate anything of darkness, they are unfruitful (Ephesians 5:11)., And God of light will make you succeed.

Prayer: Lord, shine forth your light over my life and destiny.

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.
