  GOOD SHEPHERD John 10:11-16  Devotional:- "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gave his life for the sheep”. (V. 11) Shepherds are one of the most caring people on earth. They value the lives of the sheep. They risk their life many times to save the life of the sheep. They follow the sheep wherever they go and lead them To green grass where they enjoy fresh food for their nourishment (Psalms 23:1-6). Their presence comforts and secures the sheep. They cannot tolerate the loss of any of them. So they watch over it so dearly. If anyone is missing, they take pains to look for it till they find it, and when it is found, they celebrate it (Luke 15:4-7). So also is the love of Jesus to you. He is your good shepherd. That is why He laid down His life for you. He died that you might live. He cares for you (I Peter 5:7). He cannot afford to see you in suffering. Whatever you are passing through now is for your glory (Romans 8:18). Everything shall turn to your testimony (Luke...

AUTHORITY

AUTHORITY

Luke 10:17-20
Devotional:- “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” (V. 19) NKJV

    Some things are identified with faith. Wherever you see faith, it will also manifest. One of such virtue is authority. This is commanding a situation to come to its normal state. Authority is natural with a man of knowledge. That is why God’s word says a man of knowledge increases in strength (Proverbs 24:5). Knowledge itself puts man in a position of authority.

If you truly believe, you will be recognized by the authority you give or by the strength of your speech against anything contrary. This is because you see something disguising or trying to occupy where it’s not supposed to be, the knowledge of that deception will make you chase him out. It is like your child is trying to walk with one leg all the time; surely you will command him to put the leg down because you know that it is a deceit.

That is why you must not be ignorant of the devices of the devil (2 Corinthians 2:11). As soon as you see him trying to stay where he does not belong you chase him out (James 4:7). This is how you shall be known as a man or woman of faith and the enemy will be afraid of you. They know that you understand your authority in Christ.

Declaration: Devil, it is time for you to leave my life alone.

“IF YOU DON’T COMMAND THE DEVIL, HE WILL ALWAYS COMMAND YOU”

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.
