PRESENCE OF GOD  Psalm 16:5-11 Devotional:- “You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore” (v.11) NKJV As good as joy is, one of the greatest tasks of joy is sustaining it. So the world always finds it difficult to sustain. Many cannot even experience it for more than two hours per week. This is because they have not located the source of joy. As a believer, you need to know that joy is a product of the presence of God. Wherever God’s presence is, our scripture today says joy will fill the place. It means the oxygen and the hydrogen of the atmosphere of God are joy. So you cannot be in His presence and not know joy. No wonder David said he is always glad when it is time to go to the house of the Lord. (Psalm 122:1). To experience the presence of the Lord, you need to be filled with the Holy Spirit, and then His presence will be within you. You also need to believe that He is with you according to His word.

PHYSICAL LABOUR

PHYSICAL LABOUR

Proverbs 14:20-27
Devotional:- “In all labour there is profit but idle talk leads only to poverty” (v.23) AMP

    

    As important as the first two types of labour are, much more important is the importance of physical labour. As New Testament believers, we must understand the importance of physical labour. God’s word says, “…this we commanded you that if any would not work, neither should he eat” (2 Thessalonians 3:10). The Bible strongly condemns idleness. But far beyond this is the wisdom of getting involved in physical labour

Physical labour is physically getting involved in the pursuit of your assignment. May I let you know that labour is only highly profitable when you are doing it in the area of your calling or the area of your natural ability? There are two reasons why many people’s labour leads to no profit. The first is that many only labour physically and neglect both spiritual and mental labour. Others are specialists in spiritual labour but will not physically or mentally labour. Why a greater number of people will not use their minds? The second reason is when people just labour for income's sake. Until you find your area of natural strength, labour will be equal to struggling in pain (Ecclesiastes 10:15).

With the understanding you are receiving now, I believe you will be able to put your labour rightly. Labour should always be to find fulfilment and then, to gather profit. That is why all of us must have a profit mindset. Be careful of not misplacing this priority (Proverbs 23:4-5). Most people who are making it today are people who work between 60 and 80 hours per week. As a child of God, no one should make it more than you. Arise to discover your part on the earth and labour to reach your destination. Soon people will be serving under you in Jesus name.

PRAYER: LORD, GIVE ME A DILIGENT HAND.

“IF A MAN WILL NOT WORK NOTHING GOOD MAY WORK OUT FOR HIM”

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.
