  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...

NEGATIVE INFORMATION

NEGATIVE INFORMATION

Mark 4:21-29
Devotional:- “Then He said to them, "Take heed what you hear. With the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given“ (V.24) NKJV

    The strongest enemy of faith is negative information. It is negative information that produces the rest of the enemies of faith. It produces fear, doubt, worry, Impatience, pride, and more. I want to say that negative information is the greatest enemy of man. Through it, the devil often destroys and decomposes man to weakness.

Negative information is the message the enemy signals to deceive us. Since the creature of man, the enemy has found this weapon very potent and has been using it repeatedly. It was negative information that made Eve fall, and you and I need to be more careful.

The mediums of this destructive weapon are human comments, bad movies, bad books, or messages of fear sent to our nerves to destroy our confidence. The penalty of this is a lack of faith to take risks.

Jesus said in the scripture we read today ‘Take heed to what you hear. You need to choose your teacher. It is not everyone who are qualified to teach you. Whatever promotes fear, and doubt or makes you feel weak or unable is not of God. Learn to discern good messages and choose to listen to them and your life will be good.

Prayer: Lord, help me to be above negative information.

“INFORMATION WILL REFORM YOU EITHER POSITIVELY OR NEGATIVELY”

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.
