FLOATING AXE

FLOATING AXE Devotional:- 2 Kings 6:1-7 “So the man of God said, "Where did it fall?" And he showed him the place. So he cut off a stick, and threw it in there; and he made the iron float’’ (V.6) NKJV  Sometimes when we read about some great wonders of God in the Bible, something makes us feel it was because the people were very special. But we need to know that they are men of like passion (James 5:17-18). They were just exactly like we are, but they were only men of faith. This makes God to work wonders through them. The sons of the prophet needed a big place of dwelling. So they decide to cut trees to make a new home. Thank God they requested that Elisha should go with them. As they were cutting the trees, the axe head fell into the deep river. And the man of God asked the Holy Spirit for what to do. The Holy Spirit was what they also depended upon, and there was a miracle. Friend, you also have the Holy Spirit. That stick is the word of God. Speak to the sinking situatio...

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.

Jesus gave a parable about the kingdom of God. That is what our lives should be like as citizens of the kingdom of God. He said; ten servants were given minas. A mina worth is about three month’s wages. So also, God has invested much into you. You cannot bury God’s gift, talents, and grace in your life and not trade it for your profit and the profit of the kingdom of God. The profit you must make for God’s kingdom will add up to your lifting (Luke 19:17). That is why you should serve the Lord with all He has invested in you.

Friend, the master is coming to ask for His minas. Some don’t want to do business because they don’t want trouble. Others just want to avoid the challenge and the risk of business. Yet, there is something you can do. It is either sales or services. Your excuses will not pay your bills. If you can plan well enough, what you have is enough to start with. Be determined to rise this year and God will help you.

PRAYER: LORD, STRENGTHEN ME TO RISE.

“SIT DOWN AND THINK POSITIVELY; YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RISE.”
