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.

YOUR SERVICES

Mark 10:41-45
Devotional:- “Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant” (v.43) NKJV

    To have the best of the kingdom of God, you must be willing to give faithful service everywhere you may find yourself. The truth is that our service attitude is what proves to God that we are faithful. Each of us must be willing to serve to earn our best from God. A lazy man may not have a portion in this kingdom. Jesus said, “Whosoever wants to be great among you must be your servant “(Mark 10:43).

Your service attitude is evidence to God that you are ready for your next level. Service is God's measuring rod for your readiness for lifting. Until you are faithful as a servant, you may not be qualified to become a master. The reason christ kept us here till now is that we might serve Him. Serving Him means, we allow Him to use us to reach out to others. This is something of a great joy to God (Luke 10:21).

Service takes humility. It is using what we have as an instrument of lifting to others. In that office where you work, whether as junior staff or management staff, business personnel, or an entrepreneur, God expects all of us to put on the attitude of a servant. This is by making sure that we are not just having income from what we do but are used to make others' lives better. Even Jesus said He came to serve others (Mark 10:45).

Many like to be the boss rather than the servant. But God will only reward you based on what you are doing to bless others and make life better. Friend, humble yourself to serve your parents, boss, or society. The Bible says our service should be as unto the Lord and not with eye service (Ephesians 5:7). If you always sleep in the office, to God, the wages you receive are considered stolen. Stop doing eye service. Wake up and work for what you earn. When the Lord will be looking for people to bless, He will always look for people in service (1 Samuel 16:1-13). May you be found serving the Lord always.

PRAYER: LORD, GRANT ME THE GRACE  TO ALWAYS LOVE TO SERVE.

“GOD WILL ALWAYS LOOK DOWN TO LIFT ONLY SERVANTS”

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.

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.
