RELEASING OTHERS

  RELEASING OTHERS Matthew 18:21-35   Devotional:- "So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses” (V. 35) NKJV Men can easily shout, “Away with him, kill him,” to others because they are not the offender. Very many parents will bitterly discipline their children for an offence they too have committed in the past, for which they were not killed. It is always easy to be a judge, though most judges cannot stand the face of trial. That is why the word of God instructs us not to judge others (Matthew 7:1-6). The scripture we read today reveals the wickedness of men. A man who owed his master so much, just like we all owe God so much. He was forgiven by his master, but cannot forgive his fellow servant. He rather locked him up in police custody for torment. His master heard and also reversed his decision on him for judgement.  Friend, who are the people you have refused to forgive? No matter what they...

MERCIFUL

Lamentation 3:21-33
Devotional:- “It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed because his compassions fail not.” (V. 22)

    Very many people in the world have been made to view God as wicked through the partial information they are fed. God is a just God who does not overlook sin. That is why He gave His son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins. So that through the death of Jesus Christ, we can find mercy before Him.

But the bible refers to God as being merciful. He keeps His mercy for millions and forgives iniquities (Exodus 34:7). He is indeed a jealous God who visits iniquity on generations. But the Bible says He will show mercy unto thousands of them that love Him (Deuteronomy 5:9-10). Even if anyone belongs to a cursed family, he only needs to give his life to Christ and start to obey God’s commandments. God’s mercy will prevail over him (John 14:23).

Friend, stop moving about with a cursed mentality. God’s mercy is enough for you. He will not be angry forever. His mercies are new every morning. It means each day brings new opportunities for a new mercy in God. It means your ugly yesterday can be forgiven and forgotten by God today. If you will accept this truth, it will be enough to set you free (Lamentation 3:21-33). There is no sin too great for God to forgive. Always run to God for mercy. He will have mercy and help you (Hebrews 4:15-16). If anyone turns from His evil way and be obedient unto God, He will have mercy on him for He is a God of mercy.

Prayer: Lord, visit my life with your mercy today

“ACCEPTING GOD’S MERCY WILL DELIVER YOU FROM YOUR MESS AND DEPRESSION”

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.
