SUCCESS YOUR PURPOSE 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Devotional:- “And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (V. 8) NLT When a person turns to the Lord, invite Jesus to his/her life, and surrender to Jesus as Lord and saviour, then he/she sincerely becomes a Christian. This is the state many in the church has not attained. Many struggle to surrender their lives to the Lord because they are afraid of failure, not able to trust God to give them success, and their love for the things of this world (1 John 2:15-17). When you sincerely surrender your life to Jesus Christ, your view of success cannot but change. Apostle Paul said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful” (2 Timothy 4:7). When you start to live for God, your definition of success will change from materials to purpose. Liv...

GOD IN YOU

1 Corinthians 3:11-23
Devotional:- “Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?” (v. 16) NKJV

    The word of God says we are the temple of God. A temple is a house where a deity stays and there is worship. God made man to work through us to fulfill His plan on the earth. As a Spirit being, it will be out of place for God to operate in this world without man so also the devil. At creation, God put Himself into the dust and that is what makes Adam a living being (Genesis 2:7). Man, ignorantly allowed the devil to use him and the devil took over the rulership of the world from Adam (Luke 4:6, 2 Corinthians 4:4). God promised that the seed of the woman will defeat the devil (Genesis 3:15).

This is the reason Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). As many as have accepted Jesus into their lives, the Spirit of Jesus is in them. That is the reason nothing will be able to stop you. So, you are the temple of God and God is in you. What is most important is for you to realize this and allow the Holy Spirit in you to rule your mind and life. This is by letting Him guide all you do (Romans 8:14). God will use you for His glory in this world.

You therefore need to know that what becomes of you as a child of God is up to you. You have to choose to allow the Spirit of God in you to direct your life or the flesh through the five senses (Romans 8:13). Take instructions from the Holy Spirit in you and obey Him by faith. And you will see your life moving in a supernatural dimension from now in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, give me the courage to step into my situation by your instructions.

“IF GOD IS IN YOU, THEN YOU CAN NOT FAIL”

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 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.
