  POTENCY Isaiah 12:1-6 Devotional:- “Therefore with joy you will draw water From the wells of salvation” (v.3) NKJV Please get to know that you are not an ordinary person. You are a creature of great value. In you is what can turn your destiny around for glory. With the riches of God inside of you, this nation can be turned around for glory. Your family can start to know some new things if the opportunity is given for your glory to manifest. Someone said, the richest place on earth is not the diamond place in South Africa nor the iron in Brazil, but the graveyard where many have been buried without manifesting the riches God has kept in them. You must recognise that greatness is inside of you, but the ability to bring out this greatness in you is what determines how great you will be in life. Our scripture today gave us a way into it, i.e., with joy you can fetch out greatness from the well of life. Many have become victims of failure because they could not overpower the weakness...

UNFORGIVENESS

UNFORGIVENESS

Matthew 18:21-36
Devotional:- “Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?” (V. 33) NKJV

    Sometimes it is painful when we have to forgive someone who has done something hurtful to us. This is because we believe he had done it out of a wicked heart and needs to be repaid with the right coin. That is why some people will even go to the point of physical combat. That is, they want to punish their offenders. Because of unforgiveness, best friends have been separated, many marriages have suffered divorce, and we have despised people who could be of blessing and help to us. If God were dealing with us how we deal with others, we would no longer be alive. If men were God, they would have killed all men.

The story we read today talks about a servant that was forgiven so much by his master but he did not forgive his fellow servant. That is the lifestyle of the flesh (Galatians 5:19-21). God will not also forgive them (Matt.6 14-15). To overcome unforgiveness there is a need to know that it is a sin and a work of the flesh. And we can’t correct a sinner when we are also sinning. Two wrongs will never make a right. You must put your flesh under the control of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16). To overcome the flesh you must keep silencing or put to death the deeds of the flesh (Colossians 3:5). If you cannot forgive others, you cage yourself and lose your freedom of joy. It could even cause you sickness. This is because it grows bitterness in the heart and bitterness produces tension. You also need to know that if you will not forgive, God will not forgive you of your sins (Matthew 6:14). Then how shall you escape? God has taught me to forgive men even before they offend me. Besides, I have realized that people offend others out of their ignorance. Jesus says, Father, forgive them for they know not what they are doing (Luke 23:34). Whatever that person did was done because of his low level of understanding. No matter what anyone or group of people has done to you, release them. Don’t hold them for ransom to ruin your life and destiny; you could be locking up your miracles. But as you release others you also will be released. And you Will experience a great peace in your heart. Your glorious destiny is about to unfold. You won’t miss it.

PRAYER: LORD, RELEASE YOUR GRACE OF FORGIVENESS UPON ME.

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.
