SPIRIT OF WISDOM I Corinthians 2:6-10 Devotional:- “But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory” (V.7) NKJV      The mind of every man is created to operate wisdom even at the level of common sense. This is one of the reasons why many are poor. The reason why this is so is that most human beings do not know how to empower their mind for wisdom with the right and quality information. They rather believe that life is all about making do with everything that comes their way. Wrong information and association have made many minds dull (Proverbs 13:20).

REFUSE DEPRESSION

REFUSE DEPRESSION

I Samuel 16:19-23
Devotional:- “After that, whenever the bad depression from God tormented Saul, David got out his harp and played. That would calm Saul down, and he would feel better as the moodiness lifted.” (V.23) MSG

    Due to the numerous challenges facing people in the world today, many are always depressed. This often happens to people when all their expectations have been defeated. This is because men refuse to acknowledge God in their understanding and try to make it by themselves. Jesus says without Him we can do nothing (John 15:5).

To be depressed is to be pressed down by prevailing circumstances. It is to be pulled down into self-imposed defeat due to unfulfilled expectations. It is to feel miserable and dejected. It is to be made sad or to be low in spirit. During such time, such a person will not be able to think well or make good decisions. He could even feel he doesn’t want to see anyone. Those things he loves to do will no longer appeal to him, and he could be feeling the world should even end. Such spirit was tormenting Saul the king but David was invited to sing and play the harp in praise of God in his presence. That will automatically bring God’s presence and fullness of joy will be the answer (Psalm 16:11).

Depression is therefore a product of ingratitude, worry, and sorrow. Anytime you feel heavy this way, seek to be in the gathering children of God where God’s presence will be vivid by true worship (Psalm 23:3). Where God’s servant will speak about God’s counsel, then His peace shall be returned to your heart. Hope will come again and your life will experience new joy and victory.

PRAYER: LORD, RESTORE YOUR FULL JOY INTO MY HEART.

“DEPRESSION IS THE FORERUNNER OF EVIL DEEDS, KILL IT BEFORE IT KILLS YOU”

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.

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
