  JOYFUL MAN  Ephesians 5:25-33 Devotional:- “So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself” (V. 28) NKJV Love is the summary of the great responsibility God has given to a man who wants to be happy in his home. Love is the attitude of the matured. Loving does not mean that all will be well. Loving your spouse is the act of molding and raising her for the best. That is why love in the family either to the spouse or the children should be with positive education (Ephesians 4:13-15). But love interprets so many things. Love is sacrificing time, money and self. It is creating time, money and self to help and build a united and happy home. Where there is love, there will be honour, which is the major weapon to win your wife (1 Peter 3:7). Not as becoming their subject, but understanding her nature and putting her where she belongs in your heart. A man who wants to be happy should also respect his wife and recognize her importanc...

WISDOM TO GATHER

WISDOM TO GATHER

Genesis 41:46-57
Devotional:- “And Joseph gathered grain as the sand of the sea, very much, until he stopped counting for it could not be measured” (V. 49) AMPL

    One of the great virtues that have eluded the life of many people on the earth is the inability to gather good fortune in life. This in turn produces poverty and an inability to achieve good and great things in life. Since many do not understand what is wrong with them, they then resort to looking for wealth through any means good or bad. But let me introduce you to a God who can teach you to profit and give you the power to gather good wealth.

Joseph was a young man exalted in the land of Egypt. During the time of his rulership in the land, God gave him wisdom to gather. And he was successful in the assignment given to him by the king. What wisdom is this? It is wisdom that comes as a virtue of God’s grace. He never saw any of the goods as belonging to him. So, he lives in faithfulness, integrity, loyalty and self-discipline. Not by power nor by might nor by any human ability.

When a life is submitted to God in obedience to His instructions, He guides and empowers to gather. It is therefore a product of knowing the will of God and doing it. It is a product of asking God what to do and doing it (Isaiah 1:19). Then He will be able to lead us into abundance that is more than our needs (Psalm 23:1). And we will need the grace to deny ourselves to start to set things aside no matter how little. Savings is not just a practice but an attitude. There are several ways to walk in this. You can enquire about this. Joseph started saving 20% of the land till he lost count. As soon as you take up this attitude you will have your gathering as the sand of the sea in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, teach my hand to gather.

“WHEN YOU ENJOY GRACE TO GATHER YOU CANNOT BUT ENTER INTO YOUR WEALTH”

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.
