PRETENDING

  PRETENDING Proverbs 13:1-10 Devotional:- “There is one who makes himself rich, yet has nothing; And one who makes himself poor, yet has great riches” (v.7) NKJV One other instrument of the devil to steal people’s joy is to fill their hearts with pretence. To pretend is to behave or talk like, or put yourself in a status, that you are not. It is to use what you don’t have to impress people who do not like you. It is to give people a false impression about you. This always results in a show of shame and sorrow. In the scripture we read today, there is the picture of a poor man who pretended to be rich. Who is he deceiving? Today you will see some people borrowing to spray at a party. Some will arrive at a beer parlour and ask everybody to be served, while at home, there is no food, and children's school fees are yet to be paid. Some are known to be very good outside to their secretaries, receptionists and the like, while at home they don’t have any credibility (Proverbs 12:9, Job 2...

FATHER’S WILL

FATHER’S WILL            

Ephesians 1:3-14
Devotional:- “having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself” (V.9) NKJV

    The challenge in the life of many generations is that life is always beginning from zero. The past generations never thought of living good inheritance for the present. Neither is the mind of many up till now, think of what they shall live for the coming generation (Proverbs 13:22). It is the reason why many are struggling today. They have no foundation upon which they can build their lives. So, they have to struggle to build one.

 Believers should know that we all have a great and glorious inheritance in Christ Jesus. The scripture we read talks about God’s will for us. This is our inheritance. His will is what He has left for us that we can build our lives on. With this today, we can claim His promises for us. A will is a legal tender to obtain one’s inheritance.

Stop seeing the word of God as a religious book. It is God’s will for the saints (Colossians 1:9-14). In it, is the provision for our health, victory, help, success, and abundance. As an inheritor will stand to claim the will, please always stand to claim the things provided for you in God’s will. If you have no inheritance from anyone, you have in Christ. You can always have it.

Prayer: Lord, help me to start claiming what is in your will for me.

“A WILL LEFT UNCLAIMED WILL BE LEFT TO THE ENEMY”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
