  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

AUTHOR AND FINISHER

AUTHOR AND FINISHER

Hebrew 12:1-4
Devotional:- “looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (V. 2) NKJV

    It is important as a man with a brand-new life to know that your redeemer is the author and the finisher of your faith. In so many situations of life, people could stand with you at the beginning of a thing but may not continue to bother about how you run the race. But the Bible refers to Jesus as the beginning and the end of all things (Revelation 1:8).

You need to recognise Him as the author of your faith. Any time you see faith growing in you, it is because He started it. He is the word of God (John 1:1). And the Bible says faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God (Romans 10:17). This means the word of God is the source of every genuine and increasing faith. If there is any faith that will not fail, it must have its roots in the word of God.

Most people can believe by picking up faith from the words of men and are easily discouraged. But do you know that as for you, when Jesus authors your faith, He helps you by the Holy Spirit to bring it to perfection and performance? That is why, despite our doubt, sometimes God still fulfils His words in our life (Genesis 18:9-14). And we sometimes say, “I did not even know that God could do it.”. See, He is committed to bring His word to pass. That is why He is only looking for mustard seed size of faith in you to perform His word (Matthew 17:20). He is the originator of your faith and the finisher of His word in your life. See, the word of God cannot fail in your life. You cannot but fulfil your destiny.

PRAYER: LORD, BE THE SUSTAINER OF MY FAITH FROM NOW.

“IF YOUR FAITH WILL NOT BE SUSTAINED BY GOD IT WILL NOT BE CERTAIN”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
