TAKE THE LOWLY PLACE  Luke 14:7-14 Devotional:- But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes he may say to you, 'Friend, go up higher.' Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you.

But do you know that honour is better than shame? When some people are invited to occasion, oftentimes think they are so important and expecting too much honour only to earn shame in return. When you are invited to any occasion, dress well but humble yourself; you are not to be the most important. Don’t begin to think you are the only person there. Be willing to sit in the low place.

A PRIEST

I Peter 2:4-8
Devotional:- “You also… have been built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices." (v.5)

    In the Old Testament, the priests are the only people permitted by God to take up sacred affairs in the house of God. They are the ones approved by God to move closer to God and to touch the holy materials. It is an abomination for them to touch any unholy material. They are never to defile themselves with any unlawful thing. They stand on behalf of people before God and of God before people. They are permitted to have direct access to God.

The scripture we read today announced you as a priest of God. As a New Testament saint, you have been ordained into the royal priesthood of Christ (I Peter 2:9). You can have direct access to God. You are His holy vessel. You need no middleman to worship or pray to God. You don’t need a consultant or a contractor to get you to God. You are the one to take people there. You can always offer your sacrifices of praise, worship, thanksgiving, supplication, intercession, and offering, and it will be acceptable unto God. That is why you must not defile yourself with sin (Isaiah 52:11). You must always be conscious of your sacred office. So that God’s glory can always be seen in you.

In case you live in an environment where there are no fellowships, start to gather people around you to worship the Lord. You are a priest of God. Not by garment or human ordination but by God’s ordination. God will always confirm your word when you pray for people if you believe (Isaiah 44:26). Receive God's righteous boldness from now and lead others to God.

Prayer: Lord, let your mark of priesthood be on me.

“A PRIEST IS A SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY OVER LIFE.”

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.

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.
