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...

OVERCOMING SIN

OVERCOMING SIN

Romans 6:5-18
Devotional:- “For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace” (V.14) NIV

    Many today are struggling to overcome sin in their lives.  We also have many others who willingly submit to the rulership of sin regularly. But the truth is that many know the evil and wicked consequences of sin. For example, we all know that fornicating around endangers our health and mind (Proverbs 6:26). Also, every bad habit intends to make us a failure. Yet many will not stop committing them and so many lives and destinies have been destroyed.

If a man will ever overcome the power of sin, he needs to realize the love God has for him. There is a need for us to know that God loves us though he hates our sins. If we repent of our sins, He will forgive us. He is not interested in the death of a sinner but that he repents and be saved (Ezekiel 18:23). Sin brings us under condemnation and fear but the love of God sets us free from the bondage of sin (1 John 4:18).

We also need to know that Jesus came to set us free from the power of sin and death. He destroyed the power of sin on the cross of Calvary. So, sin has no power to force us to obey it anymore. The throne of sin is destroyed and the grace of righteousness of God reigns over our lives. So, the power to say NO is given to us.

You will realize that when you sin as a believer, you willingly do it, not as if you can’t control yourself. So is every genuinely saved believer. Don’t let that sin destroy your health and success. Refuse it, glorious destiny awaits you. Don’t exchange it with sin. You have authority over sin, it will not see your end but you will see its end in Jesus name.

PRAYER: LORD, THANK YOU BECAUSE YOU’VE MADE ME STRONG ENOUGH TO OVERCOME SIN.

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.
