GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

LIVING ABOVE DISCOURAGEMENT

LIVING ABOVE DISCOURAGEMENT

Nehemiah 2:17-20
Devotional:- “So I answered them, and said to them, "The God of heaven Himself will prosper us; therefore we His servants will arise and build, but you have no heritage or right or memorial in Jerusalem"” (V. 20) NKJV

    Discouragement is a disease that easily destroys people's strength on the way to their achievement. This often comes when we are not focused enough. The devil then uses people to discourage us. He could use negative or bad comments to discourage us. That is the reason we must learn to live above discouragement. The goal of discouragement is to stop us from running the race of our destiny on earth. Looking at what happened to Nehemiah in our scripture today, he was living above discouragement. God has given him the burden of a work, and he has received direction and understanding of how to go about it, but the enemy used Samballat and Tobiah to mock the work.

You must be careful of listening to or getting moved by the comments of people. They will completely destabilize you. You need to know that people are free to use their mouths as they like, but you have to choose if their words or the word of God determine your destiny.

Anything could happen to anyone, but you know that God will not discourage you. They may mock you, but you should know where you are going Nehemiah said, “The God of heaven will prosper us”. You too depend on God. He is enough for you. Keep your goal and vision in focus. Look also unto Jesus. Your end will be colourful. Your enemies will come to celebrate with you. Let them write you off now, God has enlisted you for lifting. You will shine, and you will win. Say it to yourself, God shall prosper me.

PRAYER: LORD, DESTROY WHAT DESTROYS YOUR STRENGTH IN ME.

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.
