  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...

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”

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.
