TIME OF JOY Philippians 4:1-7 Devotional:- “Rejoice in the Lord always: and again l say, rejoice.” (V. 4) KJV One of the most important and most needed virtues of life is joy. When joy is not in place, many things may not be in place. It is joy that eases a man off the tension of life. It is joy that puts men always in health (Proverbs 17:22). It is joy that destroys our doubt. It is the joy in the Lord that increases our faith. It is joy that refreshes our minds and gives us mental richness. There are many more things that joy does in our lives, yet it looks so scarce in the lives of many. This is because there are not many pleasant situations that will help them rejoice. But you, as a believer, should know that you cannot afford to live in sorrow, for without joy, life will be totally in shambles. It is with joy that we can bring our situation back to life and beauty (Isaiah 12:3). It is the strength of life (Nehemiah 8:10). The coming of Jesus to the world brought the joy that would...

SEA WALK

Matthew 14:22-33
Devotional:- “So He said, "Come." And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus” (V.29) NKJV

    Let us understand that with God all things are possible. If only your mind can accept and believe it, then it can be. When the disciples saw Jesus walking on water, they were afraid, they thought He was a ghost. But Jesus quickly told them “It is I, be not afraid’ (Matthew 14:27). And now when Peter knew it was Jesus, he demanded that Jesus instruct him to come. Jesus commanded him to come. And he stepped out towards Jesus walking on the sea. As they both were walking on the sea, Peter later began to look at the sea, he removed his eyes from Jesus and began to sink. Jesus had to rescue him.

Any time men hear the word of Jesus, they do the unusual because faith comes by hearing the word of God (Romans 10:17). Friend, it is the revealed word of God that bring inspiration to you and whenever you are inspired you can do anything.

Notice that there were some factors responsible for the miracle, Jesus commanded Peter to come on the sea and Peter focused on Jesus, and was not afraid (John 2:5; Hebrews 12:2). As soon as he lost focus on Jesus, Peter became afraid, and he began to sink.

If only you can keep your eyes on Jesus, and not on your circumstances, nothing will be impossible for you. Don’t walk on the sea for show but if you find yourself in that situation, refuse to sink. And Jesus will sustain you.

Declaration: This year I am riding above.

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.
