  DESIGNED TO SERVE GOD Psalm 139:13-18 Devotional:- “Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too great for me to understand!” (V. 16 NLT)   God designed and formed you to fit into what He wants you to do to serve Him. The intended function determines the form of a building, so also your life. You are the way you are because you were made for specific ministry (Ephesians 2:10) Our scripture today simply means nothing that happens in your life is insignificant. God will never waste any ability unless He intend to use it for His glory (1 Peter 2:9) Before God will give you any assignment, He must have packaged you for it. This packaging is what we call shape (Jeremiah 1:5). Let us look at the meaning of each letter in your shape. The ‘S’ represents Spiritual gifts. These are special God-empowered abilities for serving Him, giving only to believers (1 Cor. 2:14). These gift cannot be bought because they are given by the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12:11). We are to use them to benefit on...

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.
