  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...

JEHOVAH-JIREH

Devotional:- “And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah – Jireh: as it said to this day, in the mount of the Lord it shall be seen”. (V. 14) KJV

    God is a great provider. A provision at a time of need is like water at a time of thirst. All of us are often faced with one need or the other. Some don’t always have their needs met and so they join the poor and become a failure in life. Some others force their need to be met through away and become one of the wicked. And by so doing create sorrow of tomorrow for themselves (Proverbs10:22). But not very many people have known God as a great provider.

God instructed Abraham to go and sacrifice his only son unto Him. Abraham obeyed God by going to the described mountain. As he lifted his hand to kill the child God, called unto him to show him a lamb that He has provided. Abraham named that place Jehovah-Jireh, meaning God shall provide. 

If you like to see God‘s hand of provision in your life also, you must learn to believe Him for it. You must learn to see Him as your provider, God hates no man. So, you should always make your needs known to Him in prayers. Then wait on His instruction for the meeting of your need. And as you obey Him your needs will always be met (Philippians 4:19). He will always provide for you. You need to know that He will not fail those who will trust in Him. And soon you will be out of debt to abundance.

Prayer: Lord, meet my need today

“YOUR NEEDS ARE ONLY OBEDIENCE AWAY FROM YOU”

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.
