  ASK Matthew 7:7-12  Devotional:- “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!” (V.11) NKJV For us to be able to enjoy the love of God as believers, we must begin to ask God for our needs. It is the principle of God that you will only have what you ask (Matthew 7:7). If you don’t speak out to ask, you may not be given. This was the problem of the senior brother of the prodigal son (Luke 15:29-32). Everything is for Him, but he had never asked for any. But the younger brother knew how to ask You must also learn how to ask. This is because you will only enjoy what you asked for. We therefore need to learn how to ask. The word ‘ask’ is not the same as beg or loan. The word asks suggests confidence and courage. It means to demand for what you are due for. It means to ask for your rights and your entitlements in God (Galatians 3:13-14). The bible is a book of covenant ...

IMAGE OF GOD               

Genesis 1:26-31
Devotional:- “Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth” (V. 26) NKJV

    At creation, God the Creator made us in His image. The greatest challenge for humanity is the loss of identity. When a man does not know who he is, he will be a cheap prey of the enemy. Lack of identity is the reason for most of all human failure. Even Eve fell into the deceptive trap of the devil because she was confused about her identity. This is the cheapest means to steal and destroy human destiny. He is still using it against men to date. The truth is that it is the most successful weapon of the enemy against man.

Friend, be willing to divorce all fact and untrue information about yourself and take the truth of the word of God (John 8:32). You were created in the image of God—to carry the very nature of God. God is a Spirit and triune. You are also a spirit and triune (John 4:24, I John 5:7-8). Sin separates man from his true nature (Romans 3:23). It is by the Spirit God that you come alive, and by His Spirit that you can do all things (Genesis 2:7; Philippians 4:13). God put Himself into man to do what He can do. You are a man of dreams with the innate ability to turn a bush into a great city. You are capable of becoming great. The strength of God was reproduced in man. He was created a righteous being and was without blemish. That is why human is higher than all other creations of God and was made better than even the angels (Hebrews 1:5, I John 3:1). He possesses the ability and beauty of God. The man was created with the ability to do many things without limitation.

You will need to start to look at yourself from this new dimension. Though you look like a single entity, you can become great, only if you can begin to see yourself with the understanding of how you were created. God is not weak, and weakness is not in your nature, you are only deceived to think of weaknesses. It is a foreign thing to you. That is why you feel the pain when you fail. Pain is a signal that something strange has been introduced into your nature. Friend, meditate on the word of God, then, you will become conscious that you are created like God.

PRAYER: LORD, BRING ME BACK TO THE LIGHT OF WHO I AM.

“UNTIL THE LIGHT OF WHOM YOU ARE IS DONE ON YOU, YOU WILL NEVER BECOME WHAT YOU ARE CREATED TO BE”

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 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.
