  JOY IN PRAYERS I Samuel 2:1-10 Devotional:- “And Hannah prayed and said: "My heart rejoices in the LORD; My horn is exalted in the LORD. I smile at my enemies, Because I rejoice in Your salvation.” (V. 1) NKJV We often fall into depression when we look around us, and all we see are unanswered prayers. It becomes worse when you are despised and mocked for that thing that you are looking up to God for. Hannah was like that, a depressed and unhappy woman. What was Hannah’s secret that made her proclaim to all that “my heart rejoices in the Lord”? 1. She decided to look away from her oppressor 2. She went to God in prayer, pouring her sorrow to God.  3. She made a vow to give God the child 4. She left the presence of God, believing God answers prayer. Hannah made good her vow, and her joy was full. Are you depressed? Pour your heart to God, make a vow to him, and you will see him answer your prayers and your joy will Come. Prayer: Lord, help me to look up to you, not look down o...

FATHER’S MINISTRY

FATHER’S MINISTRY  

John 15:13-17
Devotional:- “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you” (V. 16) NKJV

    We know so much about the ministry of the Son and the Holy Spirit, but much has not been known of the Father's ministry today. We need to know that God has not created anyone to suffer, struggle, or carry life challenges alone. God did not fashion life for struggle. Men only struggle because of ignorant of the order of life.

The truth is that you are not created to struggle. God has given you some measure of ability but when you exhaust it, you are to turn to your father. Woe to him that lacks a father for when he is exhausted he will live in frustration. You should learn to pass the baton to the father

A father is someone who knows more, sees more, has more, and can do more (John 14:28). God is our father (John 20:17). He is greater. Men of God are His representatives on the earth. So take advantage of them.

To enjoy His ministry in your life be responsible. Learn to exploit all the strength spiritual, mental, and physical that God's word has given you. But when you don't know what next to do, turn to the Father (Matthew 7:11). He knows your needs. Where your strength stops, His starts. He has made a way of escape for you (1 Corinthians 10:13). Cast all your anxiety on Him. He is capable (1 Peter 5:7). When you have cast it on Him in prayers, don’t carry it again. Believe in your heart that He is able (2 Timothy 1:12). Hannah believed and her story was turned around (1 Samuel 1:18) It is your turn!

Prayer: Lord, help me to start knowing you as my father.

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.
