  BEAUTY OF LOVE Psalms 133:1-3  Devotional:- “How wonderful it is, how pleasant, when bro thers live in harmony!” (v. 1) TLB Some people in society today have made up their minds never to love anyone again. This is a product of their experience of disappointment and frustration with men. But no matter our experience with people, we cannot give up love except that we give up living. Though some live without loving, they can’t know the best of life. The scripture we read today expresses to us the beauty of unity and love. It is expressed as good and pleasant. There is nothing to compare with the beauty of love. The bible describes love as precious oil, and this is because love is the oil that lubricates our mind and body. Where there is love, there will be health, and men will be polite. It is the ointment that makes the wounds of life bearable. Love is the cord of unity, and in unity men can achieve anything (Genesis 11:6) NIV. It is the strength of every relationship. No rela...

PRIDE

2 Kings 14:7-14
Devotional:- “You have indeed defeated Edom and your heart has lifted you up. Glory in that and stay at home for why should…you fall and Judah with you” (V. 10)

    As much as the advancement we have seen in the development of the world and even your personal development, do you know that it will be wrong to think we have made it by our power (Deuteronomy 8: 11 – 20)? God is still in control of the affairs of men and He directs all things according to His will (Daniel 4:25). When people become proud, they will lose their focus on God to self and faith will no longer be necessary till they are destroyed.

King Amaziah of Judah as we read today has conquered some nations and he became proud. He wanted to fight Israel his sister nation contrary to the plan of God. The king of Israel warned him but his heart was proud and he faced the consequences.

Friend, pride is a trick of the enemy not to let you see the need for God, but to let you see yourself okay without Him. Watch out! If you give in to pride, the devil will only set you up without God for destruction (Proverb 11:2; 16:18). Please humble yourself to stay with your spouse. Don’t become rude, do not jump out in pride, be wise and you will prevail at last.

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from pride.

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.
