GOOD SHEPHERD

  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

HE IS LOVE

Devotional:- “He who does not love has not become acquainted with God [does not and never did know Him], for God is love” (v.8) AMPL

    So many parts of the world have so much confusion about the word love. This is because some people don’t even know what love is. What a greater percentage of the world often experiences is fake love. Knowledge is supposed to promote love, but it is a pity, that it has reduced love in this generation. The increase in knowledge has become an excuse for many to stay out of love.

The scripture we read today says God is love. I realize that the major thing the world is looking for is love. We want a friend that we love. We want a spouse, a leader or a political party that loves us and looks after the welfare of the people. It is a pity that most people lack love. The truth is that the world cannot find love until they can locate the true love.

God is love. If you want love in your life, home, office, or nation you will only need to bring Him there. When there is God, there will be love. He so much loves you that He gave His son to die for you (John 3:16). What else will He not be able to do for you? (Romans 8:32). It will be wrong to keep looking for true love in man or woman without God. When anyone is not in Him don’t expect Him to have a sure lasting love. If you are a child of God that is the reason why it should be natural for you to love. If you are not able to love you have not known Him. Stop expecting perfect love from a man but in God. Cleave unto Him and you will always find love.

Prayer: Lord, let your love come into my heart and my home.

“WHEN GOD IS THERE, LOVE WILL BE THERE”

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.
