GREATNESS

  GREATNESS   Luke 1:26-37 Devotional:- “He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David” (v.32) NKJV One of the strong prophecies that was spoken about Jesus was that He would be great. I have discovered with time that lasting greatness is given by God. Therefore, it becomes unattainable only by labour but by God’s favour. You hardly see anyone who doesn’t desire to be great, but greatness is life's answer to a few people. This is not because many people don’t labour for it, but because God did not approve their greatness. I need to bring you to an understanding of how to contact true greatness. It comes through the combination of virtues called labour and favour. These two virtues come from both man and God, respectively. Man labour but God favour. Anyone can easily give himself to effective labour, but if the favour of God does not come on it, greatness may not respond. We have a blessing in the birt...

INFERIORITY COMPLEX

Judges 6:7-16
Devotional:- “But Lord ‘Gideon asked’ how can l save Israel? My clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my family” (V. 15) NIV

When God looks at us anytime, He sees us with the rich things He has created in us. This makes people to be surprised whenever God calls them to an assignment. It is the reason every God-given vision is always greater than man. If God opens the eye of your spirit to see what He has in stock for you, you may doubt the possibility.

If you observe when God called Moses, he saw himself as not qualified and said “But am a stammerer but God sees great leadership potential in him (Exodus 4: 10-14). So also, is Jeremiah who said: “l am a child (Jeremiah 1:6-7). So also in the scripture we read today, Gideon said “l am the least in my family”.

I don’t know how you see yourself too. Probably you have a poor background or there is no one to help you. These are not strong factors for failure. God has deposited rich things in you. There is greatness in you. Stop feeling inferior, it is dangerous to your success in life. It could weaken your courage and boldness. Greater is He that is in you. He will connect you, help you, and will bless you. He will enlist you among the great. Don’t look down on yourself there is greatness in you.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO SEE YOUR GREATNESS IN ME.

“LOOKING DOWN ON YOURSELF IS AN ABUSE OF GOD’S POWER OF CREATION “

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.

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.
