  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

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”
