  DON’T BLAME GOD James 1:12-20 Devotional:- “And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, "God is tempting me." God is never tempted to do wrong, and he never tempts anyone else” (V. 13) NLT Today, there is so much confusion the enemy places in the heart of men to make them feel that God hate them. So, when people are under the pressure of the flesh to sin, they say “God is tempting me”. When people are weak, they are going to face temptation through their flesh. It wil be wrong to say God is tempting you with sickness or troubles. Yes, God knows about it but He only allows it when we have been warned repeatedly and we refuse to change. He disciplines, but it is necessary for us to know that God is not the author of evil, that is the work of the devil (Hebrews 12:6; Matthew 4:24).  There is a difference between a test and temptation. To test means to examine or observe if someone is capable of doing something. To tempt means to entice or lure someone into doing some...

MISTRUST

I Samuel 15:20:30
Devotional:- “And as Samuel turned around to go away, Saul seized the edge of his robe, and it tore” (V. 27) NKJV

    Relationships have remained one of the most important factors in human lives.  As much as relationship is important there is a disease that could easily destroy relationships. This happens mostly in marriages and families. This disease is mistrust. When people can no longer trust themselves the problems in a relationship can be difficult to amend.

Anytime I read the story of Saul and Samuel, it always thrills my heart and I used to pity the situation. I observe that Saul was simply a victim of mistrust. When a Wife and her husband can no longer trust themselves each will keep finding fault. Samuel observed Saul and discovered that he would not obey the Lord. So, he lost confidence in him. Therefore, all the steps of Saul were only leading to more errors.

Husband and wife may find it difficult to trust themselves if one or both are living in sin. If they do not love one another, they will find it difficult to trust themselves and will always be looking for the errors of each other. In such an atmosphere there cannot be peace and joy. Love and liberty will be erased.

If you find yourself in this challenge, then humble yourself and ask God to amend your life of what you are doing that is causing mistrust. Then pray that God will touch the heart of the second person to forgive you. Let your lifestyle show that you have truly repented and God will restore your relationship. Joy, love, and peace shall be restored in your house and office. This year you will progress in Jesus name. 

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO BE A LOVABLE PERSON IN MY LIFE.

“WHOEVER WANTS TO BE TRUSTED SHOULD KEEP INTEGRITY AND BE TRUSTWORTHY”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

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.
