SPIRIT OF WISDOM I Corinthians 2:6-10 Devotional:- “But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory” (V.7) NKJV      The mind of every man is created to operate wisdom even at the level of common sense. This is one of the reasons why many are poor. The reason why this is so is that most human beings do not know how to empower their mind for wisdom with the right and quality information. They rather believe that life is all about making do with everything that comes their way. Wrong information and association have made many minds dull (Proverbs 13:20).

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”

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.

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.

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.
