  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

DOUBT

DOUBT

James 1:2-8
Devotional:- “But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind” (V.6) NKJV

    We need to understand the great effect of doubt. The moment we doubt, we agree with the devil to think and believe that God is not able. This will always bring man to the point of unbelief. Please know that it is in the principle of God that under this atmosphere He will not do anything (James 1:8)

Let us quickly locate the root of doubt and then we will have to deal with it. Doubt is a product of fear. Whenever an issue becomes dreadful, people quickly grow cold in faith and becomes doubtful. But why do men become afraid? Fear is a product of our focus on the problem. Then the enemy helps to falsely magnify the problem above the ability of God. This makes people conclude that God cannot help. Then, who then will? So, tension begins to build up.

If we can keep our focus on God and His power alone, we will not be afraid. And if we are not afraid, we will not doubt. Friend, watch out, for what you hear and see (Mark 4:24). The aim is to take your focus from God to your inability. Please always remember that with God all things are possible.

Prayer: Lord, help me to keep my focus on you alone.

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 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.
