THE HEART OF WORSHIP

  THE HEART OF WORSHIP Romans 6:1-14 Devotional:- “And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God” (V. 13) Since worship is our first purpose on earth we need to know that worship will not be worship if we don’t surrender to God. So, surrendering is the heart of worship. In our world today, surrender sound negative. It could mean to give up or losing or admit your defeat. But it is giving ourselves to God not out of fear or necessity but in love (1 John 4:9-19). Three things often attempt to block our mind from total surrendering to God, fear, pride and confusion. As kingdom citizen, please know it that you must learn to trust God. A woman will not be able to surrender to her husband if she does not trust him and so also you to God. To truly surrender to God, you must admit your weaknesses and limitations. That is when you truly want to ask ...

COURAGE 

Acts 2:4-15
Devotional:- “But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised his voice and said to them, "Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and heed my words” (v.14) NKJV.

    No man can face a big challenge except with the spirit of courage, which is referred to as the conqueror's backbone. You, as a believer, must know that the Spirit in you is the Spirit of courage. There is no mountain a courageous man cannot climb, no hurdle he cannot jump. And so taking risks is a normal thing in life for him.

I must let you know that we have come to live in a world where the enemy has fashioned almost everything to stand against our destiny. Courage is doing what we are to do to overcome, even when we are afraid. Not that you cannot do it but some information around you is trying to pull you down. So, a courageous man goes on notwithstanding his fear.

I need to let you know that whatever breeds fear is of the devil. And whatever inspires faith is of God. If you are going to be a winner and achiever in your life you must possess a courageous spirit. God told Joshua, “If you lack it, you lose all” (Joshua 1:6-7). If you are going to be a courageous person you must learn to operate by the Spirit of God. You need to know that the Spirit in you produces courage. Just like it takes information to create the spirit of fear, it also takes information to create and inspire courage. It is the goal of this devotional, to turn you into a person with a lion’s heart by giving you information about the spirit in you. Courage is therefore doing what you are convinced of doing despite other threatening information.

Peter was aware of the wickedness of the Jews. Because of this, they killed many prophets and even Christ. Yet when the people were gathered on the day of Pentecost he had already received the spirit of God. So, he rose in courage and without fear. That marks the beginning of the day of manifestation of God’s power through his life. You also have the Spirit of God. And God’s power is beginning to manifest in you from now.

DECLARATION: I HAVE THE SPIRIT OF GOD, SO L POSSESS COURAGE FOR MY VICTORY IN JESUS NAME.

“COURAGE IS NOT THE ABSENCE OF FEAR BUT POSITIVE ACTION AMID FEAR”

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 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.
