  LETTER OF LOVE 2 Corinthians 3:1-6  Devotional:- “You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all men” (v. 2) NKJV One of the things that true lovers love to use as a means of communication is letters of love. Do you know that it can sometimes be appreciated more than the person themselves being around? This is because letters are the expression of the intent of the heart of men. When men speak, they may commit error but when a man is writing, he means what he is saying. That is why most of the love letters written by men were not written once. When an error is detected, you don’t mind rewriting it. Do you know that the word of God is the perfect God’s love letter to man (Psalm 12:3)? There, He gave us all His promises. It is in the Bible, He told us how to enjoy all things in Him and how to have the best from Him. But much more than that, we are the ones expected to be the display and the demonstration of His love to others. You and I are actually the pictu...

HE BLESSES 

2 Samuel 6:5-12
Devotional:- “The ark of the Lord remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months. And the Lord blessed Obed-Edom and all his household” (V. 11) NKJV

    One of the great virtues highly needed in many families in Africa is God's blessing. Everyone knows that there is something called God’s blessings. This is not just I buy and sell and make money. This is grace for multiplication and increase. This is not just because of human ability but the grace of His covenant (Genesis 26:12: 30:27). This is the blessing of God for the righteous (Psalm 5:12). This is a blessing without trouble, it is peaceful and fulfilling (Proverbs 10:22).

In the scriptures we read today is the adventure of a man into the blessing of God. King David decided to bring the ark of the Lord to the place prepared for it. As they were coming, someone wanting to help it from falling and was killed by God (2 Samuel 6:6). This was because they were carrying it contrary to God’s instruction. David then felt the ark should not come to his house so as not to kill him. It was then dropped in the house of Obed-Edom. While the ark was in the house of Obed Edom, the man knew how to treat it. God then began to bless him and his household.

Friend, you can also enter into God's blessing when you understand the way to entreat God's presence. The ark symbolizes His presence. The blessing of His presence will give you instructions in your time of worship and prayers. This is His wisdom to connect you to your blessing each day of your life (Isaiah 48:17; Jeremiah 33:3). That is why you should be humble to receive His instructions (Psalm 25:9). Depend upon His mercy and not just on your labor (Psalms 127:1). And always appreciate Him for each increase in your labor and labor only as He instructs. You will begin to experience His true trouble-free blessing.

Prayer: Lord, teach me to humble myself and be grateful.

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 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.
