SUCCESS YOUR PURPOSE 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Devotional:- “And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (V. 8) NLT When a person turns to the Lord, invite Jesus to his/her life, and surrender to Jesus as Lord and saviour, then he/she sincerely becomes a Christian. This is the state many in the church has not attained. Many struggle to surrender their lives to the Lord because they are afraid of failure, not able to trust God to give them success, and their love for the things of this world (1 John 2:15-17). When you sincerely surrender your life to Jesus Christ, your view of success cannot but change. Apostle Paul said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful” (2 Timothy 4:7). When you start to live for God, your definition of success will change from materials to purpose. Liv...

SONSHIP

SONSHIP

Galatians 3:26 - 29
Devotional:- “For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus” (V.26) NKJV

    It is of great importance to constantly keep in your mind the awareness of your sonship in God. This reminds you of your status in Christ and gives you a steady growth in faith. If you forget the son of who you are, you are bound to face what you are not supposed to.

You become a child of God when you invite Jesus into your heart and He dwells in your spirit by His Spirit in you (1 Corinthians 3:16). You then grow to become a son of God when you always fellowship with Him and you allow Him to direct your heart (Romans 8:14). If you are the son of the highest God, the creator of heaven and earth, the ruler of the universe, then the angels are envying you (1 Peter 1:12).

Friend, you are not ordinary and that is why the bible calls you god (John 10:34). You are a son of God because His Spirit is in you. It is the Spirit of Jesus that dwells in you. When the enemy sees you he is afraid of you. He knows you are a child of authority (Luke 10:19). He only tricks you into fear since he knows you are ignorant. From now remember to always tell yourself “I am a son of the highest”. This should build up your confidence from now and all doors shall open unto you. You are now irresistible; your appearance shall terrify the devil. Since you are the son of the highest, you shall not be defeated. You shall arise and shine.

Prayer: Lord, let the glory of my sonship be demonstrated from now.

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 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.
