ALL WORKING TOGETHER

  ALL WORKING TOGETHER Romans 8:18-30 Devotional:- “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose” (v.28) NKJV Sometimes, because dates and times are rolling, we tend to start to think if the will of God will ever come to pass in our lives again. Some will ask, if God want to do it, why has He not done it all this while? This is a product of us waiting and expecting God to fulfil His promises in our lives within a time frame. And since time is going, we start to nurse some doubt about God’s ability and willingness to fulfil His promises in our lives. If you observe critically, most people come to that state simply because they compare their lives with others. But many of us often forget that God is taking us all the way through a different route to a different destination.  All that we need to do is to be sure that we discover and remain in the purpose of God for our lives. Others might look much ...

POWER OF OBEDIENCE

POWER OF OBEDIENCE

John 2:1-10
Devotional:- “His mother said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it” (V. 5) NKJV

    

    In facing the battles of life, you need to realize the power of obedience. Jesus is our comma
nder and obedience to Him is not optional. A soldier who will not listen to his commander may become a victim. This is because the commanders are always in the position to see ahead via several pieces of information and their instructions are important.

In the scripture we read today, the marriage ceremony was about becoming a disgrace, but obedience brought them out. The celebrants were highly privileged to have the captain of life in attendance. And so, when confusion was stepping in, Mary knew what to do. Likewise, in your home and office, you need to learn the wisdom of Mary.

Don’t fight without direction; you will be wasting your bullets. And when you are directed by God, don’t be too wise to reject it. Remember, our fight is a fight of faith and faith comes by hearing the word (1 Timothy 6:12; Romans 10:17). Simple obedience in that ceremony earned them their miracle. Though we may be pressured by our needs, it is always better to wait to receive instruction and obey it. It doesn't have to look reasonable. Who would ever think fetching water would be the way to get wine? Common sense will prefer to go and buy wine. But it would have been impossible at midnight. When God’s instruction comes it will distinguish you while commonsense will put you in the common way of impossibility.

To overcome the battles of life, always obey what God is saying, even if it does not appeal to sense. Then, you will always see your miracle. Don’t be too wise. Learn to obey the Holy Spirit. He will deliver your victory to you.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO ALWAYS OBEY THE HOLY SPIRIT.

“OBEDIENCE TO GOD HAS NO COMMON GROUND WITH COMMON SENSE”

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.

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.

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.
