WALL OF FIRE Zachariah 2:1-5  “For I,' says the LORD, 'will be a wall of fire all around her, and I will be the glory in her midst” (V.5) NKJV      One of the troubles that brings fear into the hearts of people today is insecurity. Most people in this part of the world always feel insecure. And when you look at the situations and experiences that surround us, they often want to make us feel insecure. This causes many to live their lives in fear in the day and at night.

LACK OF PURPOSE

LACK OF PURPOSE

Judges 9:8-15
Devotional:- “But the olive tree said to them, 'Should I cease giving my oil, With which they honor God and men, And go to sway over trees?' (V. 9) NKJV

    One of the strongest weapons against the success of most people on earth is lack of purpose. This is a primary prerequisite to the fulfillment of all humans in life. We are often blindfolded with greed and what we want to gain, which shifts our focus from our purpose that would have aided our success. If only all humans would understand their purpose, then there would be no need for anyone to be envious of another. There will be no need for anyone to become an armed robber. And there will be no reason for anyone to be poor.

Each tree that we read about today, recognized its purpose and wouldn’t allow the distraction of becoming a king to pervert it. Please, understand that your purpose is not to be determined but discovered. Your God is the one that determines It

Purpose can be discovered in two dimensions. First is the primary purpose: which has to do with your purpose of existence; what you are here (on earth) to do or carry out. Don’t forget that this is the only factor that will give meaning to your life. The word of the Lord says, “Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails” (Proverbs 19:21 NLT). Until you locate this, life continues to be a struggle. This first purpose can be located by vision and by observing things you find easy or enjoy doing most.

The second purpose has to do with what we do daily with a purposeful mind. This should be to bring glory to God, to demonstrate love to others, to learn and grow the character Christ, to be a blessing to others, and to win others to the kingdom of God. Aim at achieving all you do. Then, you will find the grace of God to excel. Every man is anointed for exploits in his area of purpose. Stop imitating others. Sit down and discover yourself. Discover what you like to do to bless others, this will help you to discover your purpose for living and you will be a blessing to others.

PRAYER: Lord, GUIDE ME TO KNOW MY PURPOSE.

“A MAN WILL ONLY EXCEL IN HIS PURPOSE”

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.

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.
