HOPE Psalm 42:1-11 Devotional:- “Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; For I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God” (v.11) NKJV If any man will experience sustaining joy, he must first be hopeful. Hope is the strength of joy. Hope is the reason for the coming joy. It is an expectation according to the will of God. It is an assurance of a coming joy (Hebrews 12:2). It is also the strength of faith (Hebrews 11:1). If there is no hope, there may also not be joy, but a man of hope will continue in joy. Oftentimes, we observe the current happenings around us, and it looks like there is no hope. The truth is that current events are not the determining factor for our tomorrow. God’s word says we cannot compare the suffering of now to the glory that is coming (Romans 8:18). The truth is that no hope can be genuine till it has a sure and certain promise. This is a promise that cannot fail, and that is why our hope should be in...

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”

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.

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.
