  BECOMING LIKE CHRIST Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the first born among many brethren” (V. 29) The third purpose of your life is to become like Christ. From the very beginning God intend to make man to be like Himself (Gen 1:26). So like God, we are made a spirit and our spirit lives the body. We are intellectual, we can think and solve problems. We are relational, i.e. we can give and receive love. We also have a moral conscience to discern right from wrong which make us accountable to God. God’s ultimate goal for you on earth is not comfort but character. He wants you to grow up and become like Christ. This does not mean losing your personality. Christlikeness is all about transforming your character and not your personality. Every time you forget that character development is the reason you are here you frustrate yourself. So, life is quite challenging because God is always attem...

LIVING POSITIVE

LIVING POSITIVE 

Genesis 45:1-13
Devotional:- “But now, do not, therefore, be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life.” (V.5) NKJV

      Many of us have not come to the truth that God meant business when He created man. So many still look at life as a joke but few have begun to take their place in destiny. I see you joining the great people in Jesus' name.

God has earlier revealed to Joseph that he will be a ruler even over his brothers. Yet for many years it was not looking like it. To worsen the case, he was constantly hated by his brothers. They hated him deeply from their heart but the bible never recorded a time of grievous reaction from Joseph. He was a comported man. The brothers threw him into the pit and sold him as a slave to the Egyptians. None of these moved him. He believed in his dream that he would become what God had destined him to be notwithstanding his challenges. If they had left him in the pit, he would still be great, they were ignorant of this (Genesis 37:20).

People may be doing anything to you but you must be positive about yourself. Don’t let that bug you. Joseph became great because he was positive and not moved. If your situation always determines your mood, you have been conquered by it. When he made himself known to his brothers, he handled the situation well by not complaining. He had always known that they could not stop him from achieving his dream.

Friend, no one can stop you, take your place in faith and be mature. Stop reacting to situations unnecessarily. You will achieve your dream.

Prayer: Lord, help me to refuse to be trapped by situations.

“YOUR REACTIONS ARE TRICKS TO TRAP YOU, WATCH OUT”

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.
