  SUBMIT TO HIM John 14:12-24  “Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (V. 23) NKJV   Sometimes on the platform of love, there is nothing men cannot offer to one another. If you truly love a man you will not want to reject or disobey him. You will want to do as much as it is in your capacity. You will not want to turn him down. Can you imagine how strictly you want to keep to an appointment with a loved one? If we have attached so much importance to responding to our lover, how much more God. If you truly love God it will be natural for you to submit to His will. You will not need to argue or ask too many questions. It will be a pleasure submitting to His will. Jesus said in the scripture we read today, if anyone loves me he will keep my words. In other word he will submit or obey my word. Then the reward here is that the father will also love such one i...

ABRAHAM’S DEPARTURE

ABRAHAM’S DEPARTURE 

Genesis 12:1-7
Devotional:- “Now the LORD had said to Abram: "Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land that I will show you” (V.1) NKJV

    When God wants to do the unusual, He will always give ridiculous instructions. If God has been speaking to you on anything and it looks foolish; please settle down to obey. God suddenly called Abraham and asked him to leave his father’s house to a land He would show him. During this period such movement was not strange to warriors. They just get somewhere and establish a city. But that of Abraham was different. God Himself said I have a place I want to give you just follow. He did not complain or become afraid. He knew God was faithful.

Today that single action of Abraham has turned him into the father of many nations. Friend, you also need to believe God for His word. Don’t move when He has not spoken but if you are sure He has spoken please stop delaying. A delay is dangerous.

No matter what It may cost you to depart, it cannot be equal to the place of the promise God is taking you to. Only be sure you’ve heard Him and just obey. People may pity you but don’t let that disturb you. If He has called you, He will lead you to your wealthy place (Psalms 66:12). You will not miss your place in Jesus' name.

Prayer: Lord, help me to be sensitive to your leading.

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.
