JOY BEAUTIFIES

  JOY BEAUTIFIES Proverbs 15:10-20 Devotional:- “A glad heart makes a happy face; a broken heart crushes the spirit” (v.13) NLT It is important that people in this generation realise that joy is one of the secrets of beauty. There is no one who does not love to look beautiful in life; people do so much to preserve their beauty. The truth is that it charms the heart of men. It is a strength for influence. It is a language that both men and women understand. Someone who lacks beauty may also be lacking in the school of favour. Don’t let anyone deceive you that it is not necessary to be beautiful. In this world, the way you look determines the way you will be treated (1 Samuel 16:7). We only need to identify true and godly beauty. God’s word says, “Charm and grace are deceptive, and beauty is vain [because it is not lasting], but a woman who reverently and worshipfully fears the Lord, she shall be praised!” (Proverbs 31:30) AMPC. The vain beauty is that of the face, but the one from t...

ACTION

James 2:14-24
Devotional:- “Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead (V.17)

    Faith and action are inseparable. Wherever there is faith there will also be action. It is an inspiration through the word of God. You can’t be inspired by the word of God and not act (1 Samuel 30:8-19). The truth is that faith has its evidence in action just as wisdom is evident in physical manifestation. When a man is not taking action, it is because he has no faith. At the point of faith, everyone will be ready for action. It is a manifestation of the action that delivers every product of faith.

In the scripture we read today, God’s word confirmed to us that faith without work is dead. The word ‘work’ here is referring to action. The summary of this scripture is faith without action is not going to perform. If we truly believe that God is our source; if we believe that is our sure help, then the evidence shall be in our readiness to do well to others even in our unpleasant situations.

This is because we know that our help shall surely come and we shall surely come to praise Him. Step out to obey the Lord. Step into that vision. Start with the little. Step out to serve the Lord, to give in God’s house as God impresses on your heart. This does not reduce you. Be a blessing to the poor. Wear your new dress and be free from fear of not having a better one and God will keep

Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to be out for you.

“UNTIL YOU STEP OUT OF THE OLD, YOU MAY NOT STEP INTO THE NEW”

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.
