  FAMILY FORUM Hebrew 12:18-29  Devotional:- "to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect,” (V.23) NKJV Every lovely family always has what I refer to as family forum. That is a period when the family comes together to care and share with one another. If you are going to enjoy the benefit of such family, you cannot be away and yet be having the best of the place. As a member of the family of God you must as well be regularly available in the fellowship with children of God. The bible refers to it as the church. The church is the body of Christ of which you are one. So deleting yourself from it will not make you enjoy the treatment Jesus the head gives to the body (Ephesians 5:25-30). You need to know that attending a fellowship, is not to mark a religious register of attendance but it is the coming together of the saints. This forum is always having the presence of Jesus the ...

MEMBER OF HIS BODY

MEMBER OF HIS BODY

I Corinthians 12:24-28
Devotional:- “Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually” (V. 27) NKJV

    The Bible refers to us as members of the body of Christ or as part of the body of Christ. This truth brings us to the light of understanding of your importance, as a part of the Church. But more than that is the understanding by the same scripture that you as an individual are a member of Christ's body. The ‘body’ here can therefore be seen in two dimensions. It interprets the church as a single group and a team. It also interprets that each member as being part of the body of Jesus Christ. He is the head and we are the body. We have become members of His body by His Spirit that dwells in us (1 Corinthians 3:16).

All of us know that wherever a man is all the members of his body are. It is impossible to separate a man from his body even though he is a spirit. The moment the spirit is separated the man is dead. And since Jesus is alive forevermore, whatever He is you are.

If He cannot be a victim of sickness, you cannot be. If He cannot die in an accident, you cannot. If His home cannot break yours cannot. This is because the same blood flows through you and Him. That is why the bible says; we are sited with Him far above all authority and dominion (Ephesians 2:6). Whatever Jesus is, He is for the church of which you are a part (Ephesians 1:20-23). Because He is sited in glory, our life must then reflect His glory (Ephesians 3:21). Because He is the judge of the heaven and earth, we are also (1Corinthans 6:2). That is why you must not joke with your regular membership of the church of Jesus Christ. Let no sin or association distract you. It is your day!

PRAYER: LORD, LET YOUR GLORY FLOW THROUGH MY LIFE.

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.
