  HOW REAL SERVANTS ACT Mark 10:35-45 Devotional:- “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (V. 43).   The world defines greatness in terms of power, possessions, prestige and position but God determined your greatness by how many people you serve. This is quite contrary to the world view. Jesus called Himself servant and to be like Him is to be a servant. That is why it is so important to have a servant’s heart. God often test our heart by asking us to serve even outside our shape or area of interest. Your priority area of service should be in your area of shape, but God could demand for your service wherever needed. Looking at how a servant act is important because one could serve in a church for years and not be a real servant. Real servants make themselves available to serve. If you only serve when it is convenient, then you are not a good servant (2 Timothy 2:4). Real servants pay attention to needs, always lo...

YOUR COMPANY

YOUR COMPANY

2 Kings 6:8-23
Devotional:- “So he answered, "Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them” (V. 16) NKJV

    If you do not have the right company around you, the devil will help you compose one. All of us have to be spiritually conscious that some spiritual forces are always around us (Exodus 33:14, Psalms 91:11). We know this by our feelings because we are also spiritual beings. It is only the body we live in that has limited us to be able to have a physical view of them. But then, you need to know that you are the one who determines the forces that stand around you.

In the scripture we read today, Elisha the man of God received God’s revelations of what the enemy was planning and will always reveal it to the king. This was bringing great victory for the nation of Israel. The enemy was not happy and then planned to arrest the man of God. When the army came, his servant was afraid, but he quickly helped him to see the forces with them and he too gained confidence. All you need to build faith and confidence in the pursuit of your assignment is to see God’s presence with you always (Psalms 16:8)

Friend, you determine the forces around you by what you imagine. If what you see in your mind is the presence of the Lord and His host, the enemy dare not come near you. But if you always see devil, demon, and evil in your mind you will always have what you see (Titus 1:15). You can just set yourself free from those nightmares and daymares by changing your mind to agree with the word of God that God is with you (Psalms 23:4). Be careful of the films you watch and books you read. These are what determine your imagination. Now you are stepping into peace in Jesus' name.

Prayer: Lord, open my eyes to see you with me always.

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.
