  DESIGNED TO SERVE GOD Psalm 139:13-18 Devotional:- “Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand!” (V. 16 NLT)   God designed and formed you to fit into what He wants you to do to serve Him. The intended function determines the form of a building, so also your life. You are the way you are because you were made for specific ministry (Ephesians 2:10) Our scripture today simply means nothing that happens in your life is insignificant. God will never waste any ability unless He intend to use it for His glory (1 Peter 2:9) Before God will give you any assignment, He must have packaged you for it. This packaging is what we call shape (Jeremiah 1:5). Let us look at the meaning of each letter in your shape. The ‘S’ represents Spiritual gifts. These are special God-empowered abilities for serving Him, giving only to believers (1 Cor. 2:14). These gift cannot be bought because they are given by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12:11). We are to use them to benefit on...

HOPE

Romans 4:13-22
Devotional:- “who, contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, "So shall your descendants be" (V. 18) NKJV

    Today so many people have come to believe that having hope is wrong. They think life is better based on fate and not faith. Fate is whatever life can bring but faith is the assurance of what God can do. If you cannot be hopeful then you cannot wait to see the great work of God in your life.

Friend, get to know that it is only a man of hope who can be a man of faith (Hebrews 11:1). God will not be able to do in you more than you can hope in Him. That is why you must work to see the revival of positive hope in your life.

In the scripture we read today, though Abraham had reasons to be hopeless, he retained his hope in the sure word of God. Your hope will move God to action. Even though he was old, he had experienced several years of childlessness. His wife had passed the stage of menopause, yet he knew that God’s word was too certain.

Friend, if only you can change your mind and start to hope in God’s promises for your life against all odds, then God’s word will begin to have His course in your life. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, let your word bring a new light to my heart.

“LIGHT AND HOPE ARE ALWAYS TOGETHER, ONE ESTABLISHES THE OTHER”

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.
