  WHEN GOD SEEMS DISTANT  Isaiah 8:11-18 Devotional:- “And I will wait on the LORD, Who hides His face from the house of Jacob; And I will hope in Him” (V.17) God is real no matter how anyone feels. Since we are made to worship God whether it is going well or not we must always give all the glory to Him. It is easy to worship God when things are going well, but situations are not always pleasant. That is why we must learn to always give God glory in all situations. The richest of worship is during pains or trails. We must learn to trust God, surrender and love God when we don’t feel his presence. In our scripture today the man of God said ‘’I will trust and place my trust in Him even when God is hidden‘’. True friendship is often tested by distance and inability to communicate. It takes close time and distant time to grow relationship. That is why to mature your relationship with God He will test you with period of seeming separation, feeling abandoned or forgotten. In such ti...

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”

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.
