GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

LOST OPPORTUNITIES

LOST OPPORTUNITIES

Luke 15:13-22
Devotional:-  bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!” (V. 17) NKJV

    Opportunities are means God has created to prosper us in life. But the sad story is that some men with opportunities are not always aware of the opportunities until they lose them. It is often said that opportunity once lost may never be regained. This has put many lives in the circle of failure, just because they will always lose their God-giving opportunities.

The prodigal son had a great opportunity, but he did not realize it until he lost it. I don’t know how many opportunities you might have lost in life. Is it financial fortunes, marriage, promotion, good work, or help to travel out of the country? Jesus told the story of the prodigal son to let us know that we can regain our lost opportunities more gloriously. Our God is a God of second chance.

Don’t forget that experience is a great teacher. Experience makes a man wise and he becomes a leader among others. If you have not missed opportunities in the past, you may not be able to make the best use of the coming ones. As for you, God is going to restore your lost opportunities.  What you need to do is to keep wisdom, keep humility, and be willing to obey God in all situations. The prodigal son humbled himself to retrace his steps back home. You and I are the prodigal son and God is our father. Humble yourself to gain understanding. Be patient and don’t rush in making a decision. Learn to seek counsel, and God will bring a better time that will make your life better.

PRAYER: LORD, RESTORE MY LOST OPPORTUNITIES.

“OPPORTUNITY REGAINED IS AN OPPORTUNITY BEST UTILIZED”

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.

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.
