  EXCELLENT MIND Genesis 40:4-15 Devotional:- “So he asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in the custody of his lord's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?" (v.7) NKJV Man needs to wake up to the truth that when our heart is joyful, it operates more in an excellent way. The devil, having known this power, tries to keep people in sorrowful thought. Sorrow will break a man’s system down to further confusion, while positive thinking will bring forth a solution to your situation (Isaiah 12:3). Joseph was simply wise to retain joy in his heart despite all he was going through. He simply disallows sorrow in his heart. That was why he could operate far better than others in the prison yard and even could think of how to comfort them. His mind could still bring out a solution to the problem of others. If not, the day he was brought forth from prison to stand before Pharaoh, he would have lost his mind and would have been a failure. See, joy is a powerful lubric...

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.

“THE WORD OF GOD IS THE TRUTH AND WILL STAND AT LAST”

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.

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).

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.
