  NOT AUTOMATIC Philippians.1:1-11 Devotional:- “And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns” (V.6 NLT) Knowing fully well that spiritual growth is one of your purpose of been on the earth, then you also need to know that developing Christ-like character takes years, it is not automatic. We open to God bit by bit. Discipleship is the process of conforming to Christ (Romans 12:2, Ephesians 4:13). The truth is that the journey to Christ-likeness is a life time journey. Growth involves believing, belonging (through fellowship) and becoming (through discipleship). Every day God want you to become a little more like Him (Colossians 3:10) Today we are interested in speed but God is interested in strength and stability than swiftness (2 Corinthians 3:18). The reason it takes time to grow is because we are slow learner. We often have to relearn a lesson forth or fifty times to reall...

NAME OF JESUS

NAME OF JESUS

Philippians 2:5-11
Devotional:- “that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth,” (V. 10) NKJV

    Believers need to recognize what the name of Jesus means to them in authority and power. The understanding we have about the name determines what the name will give as an answer. That is why some are named just anything. But if you are a Bible reader you will understand that name is not only for attention or identity but also a prophecy and a status of authority.

As we read in the scripture today God had given Jesus a name as a status of authority. It has become a key that opens doors in heaven and earth. The authority attached to His name makes all knees bow to it. So, it is a name all power must submit to. Jesus Christ means Jesus the anointed messiah or saviour (Matthew 1:21).

When you call upon His name all power must submit to you. It will work both in dreams and life. Jesus says, “Whatever you ask in this name, the Father will do’” (John 15:16). It means even God the Father respects and responds to this name. All everlasting doors will open for you in this name.

Start to call upon the name in all situations. The name is unstoppable when you call it with the consciousness of the Holy Spirit in you. If it is in your mouth, you become irresistible. And the enemy will always bow to you (Luke 10:17). This is your weapon of victory. Hold fast to it.

Prayer: Lord, let your name always be in my mouth.

“THE NAME OF JESUS IS THE MASTER KEY”

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.
