  BECOMING LIKE CHRIST Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His son, that He might be the first born among many brethren” (V. 29) The third purpose of your life is to become like Christ. From the very beginning God intend to make man to be like Himself (Gen 1:26). So like God, we are made a spirit and our spirit lives the body. We are intellectual, we can think and solve problems. We are relational, i.e. we can give and receive love. We also have a moral conscience to discern right from wrong which make us accountable to God. God’s ultimate goal for you on earth is not comfort but character. He wants you to grow up and become like Christ. This does not mean losing your personality. Christlikeness is all about transforming your character and not your personality. Every time you forget that character development is the reason you are here you frustrate yourself. So, life is quite challenging because God is always attem...

NO MORE CURSES

Galatians 3:1 1-14
Devotional:- “Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, "Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree" (V.13) NKJV

    The scripture says, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV). One major thing that, is in the life of every human through Adam is the curse. God cursed Adam in the Garden of Eden and since then the life of all humans has not been the same. Apart from the general curses God placed upon humanity as a whole the devil also took advantage of most families and established some curses on them. You may find some families who don’t ever succeed. Some families are all poor. Some are just nobody to be reckoned with. Some don’t have settled home. Some are bound to marry many wives or husbands for frustrations. Some are hopeless drunkards, some womanizers to the core, and many more.

Friend, there are different sources of curses but all of them have their root in the curses God gave to man through Adam. When Jesus was hanged on the cross, He became a curse for us. He took our curses upon Himself on the cross and by His power He destroyed the power of our curses (Colossians 2:14-15). God would not have allowed this to happen to His Son but for our sake. The truth is that the root of your curses has been broken. Whatever you observe operating against your family has neither footing nor legal backing. Christ has become a curse for us.

All that is left for you is the blessing of Abraham (Genesis 12:1-3). All you have to do is to rise against any curse in your family or your life in the name of Jesus. Your new nature is the nature of God. This nature cannot be cursed. You are a blessed child (Numbers 23:23). Change your belief about yourself. You cannot be poor; you are only ignorant. Get your authority from the scriptures and enter into God’s blessing.

Declaration: My curses are broken. I am blessed by God.

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.
