PROTECT YOUR HEART  Proverbs 4:20-27 Devotional:- “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life” (V. 23) NLT      Everyone is born with a strength capable of rising to greatness. In every growing child is a seed of greatness. It is this strength that makes the youth so creative and energetic. That is why each young person looks at the future with great hope. The enemy tries to destroy this strength. As strong as many started in life, not many could strike the chord of success because their strength was destroyed.

PREVAILING OVER POVERTY

PREVAILING OVER POVERTY

II Corinthians 8:1-12
Devotional:- “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich” (V. 9) NKJV

    There is no one poverty doesn’t want to rule over, but everyone prevails over it by working their way out of it with wisdom. God’s wisdom is stronger than poverty. The wisdom of this world is weak. Today a larger percentage of the population of the world is still poor. Over 80% are poor while 20% could be called the rich. I believe, in our time, that figure will change. You will also be listed among the rich in Jesus name.

Who is rich? He/she is the one whose investment dividend can sufficiently meet his needs. One of God’s wisdom to break poverty is to deny yourself to save a particular percentage of whatever comes to your hand. This will be difficult for those who are controlled by the flesh and give themselves to pleasure (Proverbs 21:17). After we have saved for some time, we can now seek counsel on what to invest in.

We need to know that apart from the fact that some people are not applying wisdom to their financial lives, multitude today are living with the spirit of poverty. You need to command it to leave your life. Show poverty the scripture we read today as the price Jesus has paid for you. Then cast him out of your life and family. Also, be determined to work in God’s wisdom for prosperity.

Start to sow in obedience to God’s instructions. That is the greatest investment. That is an investment to the kingdom of God (Matthew 6:19-20). The dividends are the grace of understanding to prosper (Isaiah 58:7-8). Then seek the knowledge of investment and trust in His favour. Soon you shall be promoted financially. A Sower will always be a reaper. Whatever comes to your hand will not die anymore. Your hand from now shall multiply all good things and you shall be free from poverty.

PRAYER: LORD, DESTROY THE POWER OF POVERTY IN MY LIFE.

“A MAN IS BLESSED BY WORDS BUT WEALTH IS GATHERED BY WISDOM”

THE GRACIOUS Exodus 34:1-8 Devotional:- “…The Lord, the Lord a God merciful and gracious, long-suffering and abundance in goodness and truth” (V.6) AMPL      For believers of this Generation to have the fullness of heaven as the word of God promised, they will need to have the right understanding of who our God is. It is the wrong concept of God that has limited the exploitation of Christians and made many lives wrongly. God’s word says those who know their God shall be strong (Daniel 11:32). If you will be stronger than your challenges you must know your God.

ONLY THE VICTORS Revelation 21:1-8 Devotional:- “He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son” (v. 7) NKJV      In this part of the world, many are not so used to taking responsibility over challenges. Instead of been proactive to foresee and prevent issues, people are used to looking out for whom to blame and who should help out (Proverbs 14:23). It is vivid that we are in a challenging season. It is also clear that we are drawing closer to the end of the age.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
