PARENT OF THE GREAT

  PARENT OF THE GREAT Exodus 2:1-10 Devotional:- “So the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she hid him three months..” (V. 2) NKJV. Anything you see that is great in life was incubated by some great people. If you can see anyone becoming great in life, you can easily trace the history back to the parents. I found something funny in this world: everyone wants their children to be great, but they don't bother to raise them for this purpose. People are wise enough to raise chickens for different purposes – some for laying eggs and some for consumption – but few are raising children with the purpose of leadership. We often expect the children to just grow and be great by luck or chance. If you observe great people in the Word of God, you can easily trace it back to their parents. This you can see in the lives of Isaiah, Joseph, David and others. I think it will be funny to sow maize and expect to reap yams. Moses, as we read today, was born...

DAY OF SIGHT

DAY OF SIGHT 

Mark 10:46-52
Devotional:- “And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” (V.47) NKJV

    Many of us do not know that we are a factor in determining our situations. If you say it is now, nothing can stop it. If you say it is later, it is according to what you say. Hannah said, “It is now” and it was so (1 Samuel 1). Jacob said, “It is now” and it was so (Genesis 32:24-30). I don’t know when your own will be.

This man, called Bartimaeus has been a beggar and a blind man for a long time. But I can read the state of the heart of this man. He was a man of vision. He was only a beggar by circumstance, so, he took his begging to the highway and not in a corner. Now that he is a beggar, he decides to be an international beggar. He knew that one day, he would gain his sight, so he was gathering and saving his strength for his day of sight. He knew soon he would have his car, wife, and children. When Jesus was passing, he knew it was his miracle day. So he put in his best till he got it. Vision will let you recognize opportunities.

Friend, what will be of you at last? When is your day of sight? Are you ever planning, saving, or investing for a better tomorrow? Today can bring a new dawn into your life but you are to determine it. See there is no reason why you should not be great. It is never late except you say so. You can still rise. Jesus is standing right by your side. Kneel down to call on him and touch Him. Then rise to make it in Jesus' name.

Declaration: I will arise for My light has come.

“WHEN YOU RISE ALL THINGS WILL RISE”

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.
