  GREATNESS   Luke 1:26-37 Devotional:- “He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David” (v.32) NKJV One of the strong prophecies that was spoken about Jesus was that He would be great. I have discovered with time that lasting greatness is given by God. Therefore, it becomes unattainable only by labour but by God’s favour. You hardly see anyone who doesn’t desire to be great, but greatness is life's answer to a few people. This is not because many people don’t labour for it, but because God did not approve their greatness. I need to bring you to an understanding of how to contact true greatness. It comes through the combination of virtues called labour and favour. These two virtues come from both man and God, respectively. Man labour but God favour. Anyone can easily give himself to effective labour, but if the favour of God does not come on it, greatness may not respond. We have a blessing in the birt...

WORRY AND ANXIETY

WORRY AND ANXIETY

Matthew 6:25-34
Devotional:- “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? (V.27) NIV

    One of the most common challenges in the lives of people today is worry and anxiety. This has resulted in many people becoming sick. People worry virtually over everything. Most of us don’t know that worrying is doubting the ability or the power of God to sustain our lives.

People worry over what they will eat, what they will wear, and what they will acquire that has not come. People also worry about what their end would be. When most people go on a journey, they worry about how they will reach their destination. Even though a vehicle is made for only one driver most of the people in the vehicle drive with the driver. They pedal brake and turn steering hanging their eyes and heart on the road beyond that of the driver. Even the drivers are more at rest.

You need to know that this is a weakness that you must overcome to enjoy peace and success. To overcome this, you need to understand that the power of God is what sustains the earth. It is what controls the oceans. It is what sustains the sun and moon. Therefore, your matter is too small to handle for Him. He will provide all that you need. Learn to put your total trust in Him. By worrying over things, your need will not be met. By worrying you can’t stop the devil. Worry is actually the five senses ministering fear to you and fear will bring torments, and activities of the devil (1 John 4:18; Job 3:25). Learn to deny and ignore the flesh. Tell your senses to be quiet and your God is enough for you.

Learn to commit your life to God and let Him handle it (Psalm 37:5). Whatever God instruct you to do in form of ideas, do it (John 2:5). But at the points that it is beyond your power, ask him to come in. Your faith will bring Him; your fear will bring the devil. If you are not a driver commit the vehicle and driver to God’s hand and sleep off. Relax, God is in control. Don’t die of hypertension. There is a sweeter tomorrow for you; soon you will be flying in the sky with peace in Jesus name.

PRAYER: LORD, GRANT ME THE GRACE TO REST IN YOUR HAND ALWAYS.

“THE AMOUNT OF YOUR PEACE IS EQUAVALENT TO YOUR TRUST IN GOD”
