MAKING GOD HAPPY

  MAKING GOD HAPPY Numbers 6:22-27 Devotional:- “May the LORD smile on you and be gracious to you” (V. 25 NLT) One of the goals of our life is to make God happy. This is because the goal of worship is to make God happy. A man can make God happy when he pleases the Lord in all His ways. Job was a man who pleases the Lord in his life time (Job 1:8). Noah was another man who also pleased God in his generation (Genesis 6:8). We are living for the glory of God when we live to make God happy by pleasing the Him. To make God happy, we must love Him supremely (Luke 14:26). No one loved us as God does. He knows what no one knows about us that is why we must love Him more than ALL. It is possible to love God supremely when we relate closely with Him (Hosea 6:6; Matthew 22:37-38; Genesis 6:9). To make God happy, we must learn to trust Him completely. Noah trusted Him and built an arc even on a dry land (Hebrew 11:7). Though, he had never seen rain before yet believed God and trusted Him compl...

SPIRITUAL STEWARDSHIP

SPIRITUAL STEWARDSHIP

Exodus 23:24-28
Devotional:- "So you shall serve the LORD your God, and He will bless your bread and your water. And I will take sickness away from the midst of you” (V. 25) NKJV

    Many of us do not know that the attitude we turn to God determines the attitude He will turn to us. Especially when God expects us to have grown above something having known the truth and we are not, then He chastises us (Hebrews 12:6). God can never be wicked, but He wants us to grow. So He chastises us with love as a good Father.

For you to enjoy the great blessing of your new life in Christ, you will need to take your service to the Lord so seriously. This talks about your input to the building of the kingdom of God. This talks about the willingness to release yourself to be used by God for the work of the service of the house of the Lord. You can serve Him either as a singer, usher, intercessor, or artist and much more with your gifts and talents. This is one of the secrets of the lifting of David the King. He said he loved to be an usher in God’s house (Psalms 84:10). Be careful not to be bigger than God’s service.

You need to know that whatever you have, either in the form of possession, opportunity, gifts, or blessing, belongs to God (John 3:27, James 1:19). You will therefore be wise not to see yourself as the owner of these things. You are only in charge as a steward. And God expects you to use it for Him for the progress of His kingdom. Don’t be part of the people who only sit in the church doing nothing. The problem with so many people today is that they are part-time Christians and full-time in their profession. Friend, let God be above all by putting God first in your life. Be a full-time Christian. Be dedicated to the work of the Lord. Excuses in your duties may excuse you out of the covenant blessing. Find a way to serve the Lord, and you will contact health and wealth.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO ENJOY SERVING IN YOUR HOUSE.

“IF YOU ARE NOT IN GOD’S SERVICE YOU MAY NOT ENJOY SONSHIP REWARD”

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.
