  FAITHFULNESS Matthew 25:14-30 Devotional:- “His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord'” (v.21) NKJV One other unnoticed strength of joy is being faithful. You need to know that faithfulness is a senior brother to joyfulness. They are born of the same father. When you are really born of God, these two virtues will surely be found in you. Today, many are dubious in their dealings with others. Many, in the name of the need for money, become unfaithful to their spouse, master and even God. People do this just to get wealth, but they never know that it is a way to lose their joy. So many have gathered through unfaithfulness, but with many sorrows. In the scripture we read today, there are two types of servants. Their master gave them money to trade with. Two were faithful by carrying out the instruction of their master, but one was unfaithful. He thought ...

HOPE DEFERRED

Job 14:6-9
Devotional:- “For there is hope for a tree, if it’s cut down, it sprouts again and grows tender new branch” (V. 7) TLB

    The challenge of life could weigh a man down beyond his faith and bring him to the level of hopelessness. Many people today have no hope of good things happening to them anymore. They have been waiting on God for quite sometimes and their hope is getting wearied.

To be hopeless is to conclude there is no better tomorrow. This happens to us sometimes when we put our expectations on men or when we over-expect from people. It could also be that we do not know that hope in God is made strong by the wisdom of patience in divine instructions (Hebrews 6:12). If this situation is not arrested quickly, it could lead to loss of vision, purpose, and faith in God. This is the goal of the enemy, but he has failed.

Listen to the powerful statement from Job: even if a tree is cut down there is hope for it. At the smell of water, it shall bud again, no matter what has been delayed in your life, if there is hope for a tree, there is hope for you. Don’t let your heart be wearied (Proverb 13:12). Please know that this is a strategy of the devil to remove you totally from faith in God. Therefore, renew your trust in God’s word by stretching your root to His word. Your hope shall come again.

Remember the faithfulness of God is from generation to generation. If He did not fail Abraham, Jacob, and Joseph, He will not fail you. You will rise again; all your lost time and materials shall be recovered. You may think you are losing time, but He is keeping time. You shall celebrate your progress and prosperity in Jesus name. It’s not over.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO FIND NEW HOPE IN YOU.

“YOU ARE NOT LOSING TIME; GOD IS ONLY KEEPING TIME”

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.
