  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...

STUBBORN CHILD

STUBBORN CHILD

Judges 14:1-3
Devotional:- “Then his father and mother said to him, "Is there no woman among the daughters of your brethren, or among all my people, that you must go and get a wife from the uncircumcised Philistines?" And Samson said to his father, "Get her for me, for she pleases me well" (V.3) NKJV

    One of the terrible things the devil is doing in the world today is to enter into the hearts of some children and turn them into stubborn children. Such children would not want to listen to their parents. Some of them in their teenage years have become husband to their mother. Some of them will even want to beat their parents. The word of God already says in the last days children shall be disobedient to parents (2 Timothy 3:2). But as for your children, God shall help them.

This problem started from the wrong association and influence of the society. These have a strong influence on the children. The music and the films on the screen are also contributing to this evil. Samson was also demonstrating this wrong quality.

The way out is to engage your children in teaching them the word and the way of the Lord (Proverbs 22:6). It is important to introduce God to your children but in an interesting way. To the youth let them attend youth Christian’s program, and they will fall in love with God. Let them see good examples from your life. Always commit their heart to the hand of God (Proverbs 21:1). Be a praying parent. No one is too hard for God to change and your children shall be God’s kind, having the seed and the spirit of God in them. You shall never have sorrow over them. They will be your joy forever in Jesus' name.

Prayer: LORD, TAKE OVER MY CHILDREN FOR YOUR GLORY.

“GOD IS ABLE TO KEEP WHATEVER IS COMMITTED TO HIS HAND”

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.
