TIME OF JOY Philippians 4:1-7 Devotional:- “Rejoice in the Lord always: and again l say, rejoice.” (V. 4) KJV One of the most important and most needed virtues of life is joy. When joy is not in place, many things may not be in place. It is joy that eases a man off the tension of life. It is joy that puts men always in health (Proverbs 17:22). It is joy that destroys our doubt. It is the joy in the Lord that increases our faith. It is joy that refreshes our minds and gives us mental richness. There are many more things that joy does in our lives, yet it looks so scarce in the lives of many. This is because there are not many pleasant situations that will help them rejoice. But you, as a believer, should know that you cannot afford to live in sorrow, for without joy, life will be totally in shambles. It is with joy that we can bring our situation back to life and beauty (Isaiah 12:3). It is the strength of life (Nehemiah 8:10). The coming of Jesus to the world brought the joy that would...

DESTROYING THE ARROW

DESTROYING THE ARROW

2 Corinthians 10:3-5
Devotional:- “The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary they have divine power to demolish strongholds” (V. 4) NIV

    Sometimes as a child of God, you are faced with the attack of the enemy. You see the devil trying to stop or hinder your way. He will even want to afflict you with sickness and diseases. Sometimes you will find something unusual happening in your body. Some of these are arrows of the enemy. The enemy intends to threaten your faith and make you doubt your protection in God.

You need to know that you are not a victim of the arrows of darkness. You are rather a destroyer of the weapons of darkness (Isaiah 54:17; Mark 16:17). Though they come around you, they can’t affect you since you have what you need to stop the enemy.

We have a protection in God that cannot be penetrated by the arrow of darkness. This is because the devil is always looking for loopholes. Especially when we relax, and do not carry the shield of faith; when we are not conscious of the power and the forces of God around us. God’s word says, “When man slept, the enemy came and sow weeds into the wheat”  (Matthew 13:25).

To destroy the arrows of the enemy either in your family, business, finances, or body, learn to employ the spiritual weapons we have in Christ. They are mighty through God, to pull down all arrows and forces of the enemy. These are the name of Jesus, the blood of Jesus, and the word of God. All of this can only be used by faith. They are our shields of faith through which we can quench all arrows of darkness. When you apply them, believe and see them working. You shall see your victory over the devil. Even if you are not feeling your release instantly, believe, that you have been released. Don’t give up your faith and you will always have your victory.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO ALWAYS BE CONSCIOUS OF THE WEAPONS OF MY VICTORY IN CHRIST.

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.
