  SPIRIT OF JOY Galatians 5:16-26 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness” (v.22) NKJV For all men to experience an ever-flowing joy, we must first possess the spirit of joy. God is the source of joy. When He is in a man, He brings His joy along (Psalm 16:11). Since God is a Spirit, He can only be with men by dwelling in them. When the spirit of God dwells in a man, he will experience unlimited joy. One of the most neglected exercises in the church is people receiving the Holy Spirit. Most Christians look for one excuse or the other to neglect the Holy Spirit in their life. Sometimes people feel the Holy Spirit is not that necessary. Some people feel it is an old way of following the Lord. But you need to know that if you lack the Spirit of God, God’s word says that you are none of His own (Romans 8:9). Friend, it will be wisdom for you to set aside time to ask and be filled with the Spirit of Christ. When you are filled wit...

ABSOLUTELY HOLY

John 17:6-11
Devotional:- “And [now] I am no more in the world, but these are [still] in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, keep in Your Name [in the knowledge of Yourself] those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We [are one].” (V.11) AMPL

    Our God is holy. He is absolutely holy. Sometimes when we hear the word 'Holy' we get scared. It looks like an unreachable level for man. It scares us like God’s presence scares the Israelites on Mount Sinai. And to some people, it means God is unapproachable for them. So for this reason they keep off the house of God. Even in the church when it is time for Holy Communion Some people try to escape simply because of the word holy. Thank God for light.

But do you know that it means God is a righteous God? To be righteous is to always stand in the will of God in every situation. This means He is a faithful God that will always be right. He will not promise and fail (Isaiah 40:28). You simply need to understand, that this attitude of God is for your blessing. It means Holiness. He has a perfect attitude. There is no evil in Him. The wickedness of the world will not change His plan for you (Proverbs 19:21). That is why God's word is asking you to also be holy (1 Peter 1:15-16) So that you can also be a sure blessing to your world. It is as you yield to His calling to be holy that you can enjoy the  best of God (Isaiah 1:19).

Do you know that His holiness is the guarantee for your success and victory? Even when you are not firm His word stands firm. God’s holiness is what guarantees your future. The enemy cannot turn it down since God is Holy, He will fulfill His promises. You just be sure you are obedient to His word. And at last, His holiness will take you there.

Prayer: Lord, help me to enjoy the blessing of God’s holiness.

“GOD’S HOLINESS IS THE GUARANTEE FOR YOUR SUCCESS”

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.

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.
