  FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD Romans 5:1-11 Devotional:- “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life” (V. 10)  As a kingdom citizen please known that God wants to be your best friend. This is because intimacy is part of your act of worship. It is true that God is our maker and redeemer yet he wants to be our friend. Remember we were made to live continually in God’s presence but it is sin that makes us loose that (Gen 3, Roman 3:23)  In our scripture for today we saw that it was grace through the sacrifice of the cross that gives us access to friendship with God (2 Corinthians 5:18). Our friendship with God does not mean casual acquaintance but close and trusted relationships just like the best man in a wedding. In the palace the servant must keep their distance from the king but there are some people in circle of intimate and trusted friends with the king. They enjoy free an...

GOD’S PRESENCE

GOD’S PRESENCE

Psalms 16:1-11
Devotional:- “I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved” (V. 8) NKJV

    One of the weapons of faith all God’s children must carry in their minds is the presence of God. God promised that He will be with us in whatever situation we may be (Isaiah 43: 1-5, Matthew 28:19). But this will have no effect if left in our bible and not established in our spirit. You need to let it be settled in your heart that God is with you, and this will produce great power in your heart.

King David just showed us one of the secrets of his consistent victory and that is the consciousness of the presence of God (Psalms 23:4). No wonder he could face Goliath (1 Samuel 17). No wonder he could get the foreskin of the Philistine (1 Samuel 18:20 -27). He was always aware of God’s presence so fear was not his lifestyle.

If you also always live with this consciousness from now on, then you will sleep by faith, wake up in great joy and strength, launch out into each day with assurance, and face those challenges with an assurance of victory. Make this simply a cloth to wear for your mind. “The presence of God” and you will always overcome.

Prayer: Lord, help me to be clothed with your presence.

“WHEN YOU ASSURE YOUR MIND OF HIS PRESENCE, IT WILL ALWAYS GIVE YOU PEACE”

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.
