  PURPOSE OF HIS FAMILY Ephesians 2:14-22 Devotional:- “Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,” (V. 19) It is important you know that you are created for fellowship and formed for family. No one can fulfill the purpose of God alone. That is why God created a family for His children called the church. There will belong to one another forever (Rom 12:5). Your earthly family cannot continue to care for you but God has made the church a place for each of us to find love for ever. Please know that the church is not a building it is a group of people who form the body of Christ. The church is an organism and not an organization. One of the first sign of backsliding is when people start to miss fellowship. Whenever we become careless about fellowship every other thing begins to slide too. The church is so important that Jesus had to die for Her (Ephesians 5:25).The church is called the bride of C...

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.

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). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

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.
