GOOD SPOUSE

  GOOD SPOUSE 1 Corinthians 7:1-5 Devotional:- “Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband” (v.3) NKJV One of the greatest places where God expects love to be demonstrated is in the family, and most strongly between the husband and wife. It is a pity that this generation does not have many spouses enjoying true love in their relationships. Many have turned the home into a children-producing factory, and there is nothing strong that ties them together. And today, men can no longer understand the purpose of God for instituting marriage. The scripture we read today gives us some great instruction for our distinction in this world of destruction. God’s word says, "Each should render to one another due affection." Affection is love. God expects you to love each other (1 John 4:7). It is as you love each other that the atmosphere is created for God to mend and amend things in the house. Understand that the word 'love'...

SUBMITTING TO GOD

SUBMITTING TO GOD

I Peter 5:5-7
Devotional:- “Therefore humble yourself under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you In due time” (V.6) NKJV

        A man who wants to live by faith must learn to submit to God. Faith is resting confidently on the promises of the word of God. For a man to rest on God’s word he must give up his struggle. Many people just believe that life is all about struggling but faith is not struggling; it is rather turning to God's direction at all cost.

In the scripture we read today, God’s word says we should humble ourselves under God’s mighty hand, that’s when our promotion can be given at the right time.

Friend, fear, anxiety, worries, and struggle will not produce a good future but faith in God’s word. Give up your struggle (Matthew 6:25-33). Cast your worries on Him. Trust it all to His hand and you will live in peace (Psalms 37:5). Begin to pursue whatever He has given with the available opportunity with all your heart. Understand that He is building you up for the best. Refuse to live in sorrow but rejoice in hope. Let not your circumstances dictate your life. Live by God's Word; put your total hope into it. And you will laugh last.

Prayer: Lord, help me to submit to your will

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 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.
