  FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD Romans 5:1-11 Devotional:- “For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life” (V. 10)  As a kingdom citizen please known that God wants to be your best friend. This is because intimacy is part of your act of worship. It is true that God is our maker and redeemer yet he wants to be our friend. Remember we were made to live continually in God’s presence but it is sin that makes us loose that (Gen 3, Roman 3:23)  In our scripture for today we saw that it was grace through the sacrifice of the cross that gives us access to friendship with God (2 Corinthians 5:18). Our friendship with God does not mean casual acquaintance but close and trusted relationships just like the best man in a wedding. In the palace the servant must keep their distance from the king but there are some people in circle of intimate and trusted friends with the king. They enjoy free an...

CONFUSION

I Corinthians 14:32-33
Devotional :- “For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints” (V. 33) NKJV

    Confusion is a state of the heart when you don’t know what to do next amid situations. A man could come into such a state when he feels uncomfortable with the counsel of others. This could happen when someone believes they have good ideas but the ideas are not working. This could also occur when a man is not patient enough to consider his ways before making decisions. This could happen when a man finds himself in an unexpected situation that affects him beyond his control. It is often an aftermath of failure.

There are a few things you have to know about confusing situations. Whatever you may be confused about now, understand that God is not the author of confusion. In other words, it is not God that you are confused. Everything that is from God goes with peace, orderliness and understanding.

If you feel confusion in your heart about anything in your life, it’s important to stay calm and relaxed, Please know that it is not over, so you don’t need to harm yourself because of that. Things will soon be back in shape. If your heart is heavy over a matter, why not put it aside first and be grateful for the good things God has been doing for you? See the need to appreciate Him by thanking him sincerely. Then the Holy Spirit will comfort your heart with His peace. You cannot get out of the situation by thinking over and over about it, and trying to find the way out on your own. In the course of you thanking God, the Holy Spirit will bring your heart to the light of understanding. Seek the counsel of men of God who you have tested and approved. Then believe that the Lord will take control. Whatever the Holy Spirit instructs you to do, please do it. Your peace and joy will be restored and your life will begin to find new shape. This is your year!

PRAYER: LORD, LET YOUR PEACE AND JOY FILL MY HEART AGAIN.

“EVERY DECISION TAKEN IN CONFUSION MAY LEAD TO FURTHER FRUSTRATION”.

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 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.
