  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

EXCELLENT GOD

EXCELLENT GOD

Psalm 8:1-9
Devotional:- “O Lord our God how excellent (Majestic and glorious) is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory on [or above] the heavens” (V. 1) AMPL

    What makes life glorious is when excellence is put into it. No matter how much a man is earning, the moment excellence is not his lifestyle, He will be void of glory and beauty. It is excellence that commands the glory of beauty in a man.

You need to know that your God is excellent. The Psalmist said, "How excellent is your name oh Lord". Can you imagine the work of creation? Beginning from the sun, to the moon, and the stars. They are excellently arranged. Look at the sea and the land. Look at the plants and the flowers. Look at the variation in different animals and birds. And to crown it all look at the multiple variations in human looks. All of these are products of God's excellent work.

Observe yourself well and know that your creation is a product of excellence. Look at your eyes, nose like a silencer, ears like a satellite dish, your mouth and all. See, you are truly wonderfully made

(Psalms 139:14). That is why you should always be excellent in all that you do. So that you can look exactly like your God. And by excellent living, you can command the beauty and the honor of God upon your life and ministry (Philippians 4:8) peace!


Prayer: Lord, help me to always give attention to excellence.

“EXCELLENCE IS THE SECRET OF EVERY BEAUTY”

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.
