  WISE MEN Matthew 2:1-12 Devotional:- “And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.” (V. 11) NKJV Up till now, in the minds of some people, givers are foolish. Some believe that people only give to bribe. Others believe that those who give especially in the house of God have been brainwashed and deceived. Others, even Christians, believe that giving is a way to support God’s work, and it is at their discretion, with no one able to push them. They choose when and when not to give and not as anyone instructs them. So, they only give as they like. They don’t listen to the message of pay your tithe or give an offering, or build for God. The truth that this season brought us is that givers are wise men. Someone said givers give because they have faith that they will receive more than they are giving. Givers give ...

THE FATHER

John 20:11-18
Devotional:- “..but go to my brethren and tell them, I am ascending to my father and your father and my God and your God” (V. 17) AMPL

    It is a normal thing that every male loves to ascend to the status of a father, but many are not qualified for it. People often love to have an office but not the responsibility of the office. So, today we have a lot of fathers who don’t see their children for more than three hours a week. Some don’t even know the school their children attend nor recognize the state of their life. That is why most terrible children in society today come from big homes. It is because many lack a real father figure in their lives.

You need to know that God also desires to ascend to this status in the life of people. And He will always take full responsibility for His children. Jesus said, I have kept all that the father has given me except the son of perdition (John 17:12). This is a responsible statement.

I will encourage you to recognize God as your father and you will begin to enjoy His fathers’ ministry. You will start to receive His love, correction and instruction (Hebrew 12:6). He becomes your father because He is in you by His Spirit that is in you (1 Corinthians 3:16). By His Spirit in you, you have become His extension and son. You came from Him (John 8:42). He so much loves you. Start to call Him your father and relate with Him exactly. In our scripture today when Jesus was resurrected, He introduced God to us as our Father. Take Him by His word. Freely relate and share with Him. Ask Him questions as a child to the father. Always love to be in His presence and carry the consciousness of His presence with you everywhere. You will begin to enjoy His Father’s ministry over your life.

Prayer: Lord, make me know you as my father indeed.

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.

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.
