  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 ...

THE NAME

Philippians 2:5-11
Devotional:- “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name” (V. 9) NKJV

    One of the things you have in God as a person in Christ is the name of Jesus. Name is a symbol of power and greatness. Don’t assume that name is only for attention or identity. The names of people sometimes interpret the events that surround there lives. Names sometimes declare people's destinations in life. And the name could also be an identity of greatness. There are great names and there are mere names. There are names you will mention, and people will look at you twice. Imagine you entering anywhere and you introduce yourself as “Mr. God.”

Because Jesus humbled Himself to suffer and perfect the work of our redemption, God gave Him a name. This name is not only with authority but also with power. It is the greatest name in heaven and earth. God’s word says He has been given a name that is above all names (Philippians 2:9). The name has become the symbol of authority, in heaven and earth. All kneel bow to the name (Philippians 2:10). This name can open all doors (Revelation 3:7). It carries heaven’s authority, so when you mention it, all authority answers to you.

No matter the situation you may find yourself in, all things stand when you declare it in the name of Jesus. Friend, understand that this is not an ordinary name. God has approved this name to unlock divine authority on behalf of believers. That is why even the devil will tremble when you mention this name (Luke 10:17). Sickness and pains cannot wait for this name. Failure and frustration cannot wait for you with this name in your mouth. In any embarrassing confrontation, just declare the name of Jesus. And you will see the host of God responding rapidly to you to help you. This is your key to all doors. This is the drawer of your authority in God. It is the strength of your victory. So, declare it now and always for your victory.

PRAYER: LORD, I THANK YOU THAT I AM ORDAINED WITH AUTHORITY IN YOUR NAME.

“HE WHO KNOW NOT THE MYSTERIES BEHIND THE NAME MAY NOT ENJOY THE BENEFIT IN IT

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 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.
