GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

CONSCIENCE

CONSCIENCE

II Samuel 24:2-10
Devotional:- “David was conscience-stricken after he had counted the fighting men, and he said to the LORD, “I have sinned greatly in what I have done. Now, LORD, I beg you, take away the guilt of your servant. I have done a very foolish thing” (V. 10) NIV

    God has given every human a conscience. This is a part of your mind that tells you whether what you are doing is right or wrong. Conscience can have a positive effect and can also have a negative effect. Some people want to avoid condemnation in their hearts and so destroy their conscience. The positive effect is very good, it keeps us away from evil. God put it there to help us flee from evil and love one another. It helps us to fear the Lord.

In our scripture today, David did what God had not instructed him to do and his conscience was affected. Some people also go about with a guilty conscience today. There are some sins some people have committed against God, their spouse, family friends, or neighbors, and their conscience held them for long. This could make someone kill him/herself (Mathew 27:3-5). You need to know that as a New Testament believer the Holy Spirit now dwells in you (1 Corinthians 3:16). As long as you keep obeying the Holy Spirit, you can no longer be condemned (Romans 8:1).

To overcome this, you need to repent of such deeds genuinely. Plead the blood of Jesus upon your mind by faith, and your heart will be cleansed (Hebrews 9:13-14), No matter your sin, God will forgive you if you genuinely repent and turn away from such sin (1 John 1:7-9). Then you will be free and you need to begin to allow God’s word in your heart. It is the water of life. It has the power to clean your heart and set you free from a guilty conscience (John 15:3). You are free from now in Jesus name. accept the righteousness of God by faith (Romans 3:22). The peace of God shall flood your heart from now and you shall be free.

PRAYER: LORD, GRANT ME GRACE FOR PURE CONSCIENCE.

“A CLEAN CONSCIENCE IS THE HEALTH OF THE SOUL”

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

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.
