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...

IT IS FINISHED

John 19:28-30
Devotional:- “So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished!" And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit” (V. 30) NKJV

    No matter the battles or challenges we may be going through today, Jesus’ statement is the final. That will always be the endpoint. No matter what the enemy is doing in our lives, Jesus has said, “It is finished”. The strength of our faith is the revelation of God’s word to our hearts. If you could grasp an in-depth understanding of the statement, “it is finished”, then you are a perpetual winner.

When Jesus went to the cross, He did not go because of His sin. He went there to represent you and I. He suffered what we should suffer. God allowed it to be so to release you and me from the sorrow and troubles of this world. He became a sacrifice for our sins. And all the burdens of our troubles were put on Him. And since there must be shedding of blood for our sins to be removed, He shed His blood for us. (Hebrew 9: 22).

And when all things are concluded in heaven and earth, Jesus declared. “It is finished”. In other words, your sickness, afflictions, sorrows, troubles, etc., are finished. All that the devil may want to do against you are finished. The devil is just a headless snake. Jesus has swallowed his sting in victory (I Corinthians 15:54). So, whenever you are faced with any challenge, remember and declare, “IT IS FINISHED” Never say you are finished. Let this strengthen your faith to overcome. Refuse to get frustrated or discouraged. Always see the end of the battle from the beginning. It doesn’t matter what you are going through. "It is finished”. Embarrass the devil with this always and gain your victory. Say it loud, “It is finished”.

PRAYER: THANK YOU, LORD, BECAUSE YOU HAVE FINISHED ALL THAT WAS DEVISED TO FINISH ME.

“NO MATTER WHAT I AM FEELING, WHAT IS FINISHED IS FINISHED”

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.
