NATURE OF LOVE

  NATURE OF LOVE I Corinthians 13:1-8  Devotional:- "suffers long and is kind .. does not envy.. does not parade itself…” (V. 4). Since men do not have the actual understanding of love, they turn it into lust. And now it is lust most people call love. It is the reason for most frustration and discouragement today. The scripture we read today revealed to us the true nature of love. It reveals to us that no man’s service shall be acceptable or profitable until he puts in love (v. 1-3). The beautiful thing about the nature oflove is that it is the nature of God, for God is love (1 John 4:8). And if God dwells in us, love should also be demonstrated in us. The scripture says, love suffers long, that is why God loves to forgive his own people. Several times we have turned away from him, yet He does not turn away from us. He still looks for us. So also we should do for all we love. Love is kind, and that is why God has been kind to us. He doesn’t condemn us; He wants us to repent (E...

JUDGMENT OF GOD

JUDGMENT OF GOD

Exodus 12:1-12
Devotional:- “For I will pass through the land of Egypt on that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD” (V. 12) NKJV

    Our God is a God of judgment. No matter how much a man may try to escape, he cannot run for the judgment of God (Proverbs 11:21). That is why it will be wise for you and I to keep our eye on God and keep walking in His will.

The nation Israel has been subjected to slavery for over 400 years. Even though it is in the plan of God that they will be in the land of Egypt for 400 years not to be wickedly treated as the Egyptians have treated them. And when the time came, God's judgment came upon the Egyptians and their gods. God killed their entire firstborn since they treated His firstborn nation brutally. And up till now, the nation Egypt has never fully recovered from that judgment except the ones that are saved among them.

If anyone is boasting in any power or any capacity to carry out evil against you, if God be for you they cannot but fail (Romans 8:31). If anyone attack you in any way the Lord will judge them. He is a God of judgment. When He will arise and fight for you everyone will weep for them. You are not without a defense. You are not without God. Everyone who boasts in his or her power against you shall go for you. And your peace shall be established.

Prayer: Lord, arise and judge the forces against me.

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.
