STRENGTH IN GOD

STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

COUNT IT ALL JOY

COUNT IT ALL JOY

James 1:1-8
Devotional:- “My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials” (v.2) NKJV 

    

    Trial could be a weight that the enemy could use to hinder many Christians from flying in life. Trial times are periods when we are tested to know the strength of our hearts. This season comes into the life of a Christian not because the Lord wants to be wicked to us, but we often enter into this season due to our weaknesses (James 1:13-14). When God discovers our weaknesses, He, as a good father, sees the need to help us; He does this by allowing situations that expose our weaknesses to us. It is always a time that looks as though God has forsaken or rejected us. These are what many people call delays in their lives. But all of these are not to break but to build us.

If you are going through a trial time, God expects us to consider such a season thoughtful and joyful, knowing well that it shall work out a more glorious season for us. This came to build patience and maturity in us. This is because mature faith works with patience (Hebrews 6:9). This enables us to be preserved till we access our glory. This also works great experience in us that helps to build up the strength of our faith for greater exploits.

Friend, soon you shall be made mature and completed in Him for the fulfilment of life and destiny. Therefore, count it all joy. Refuse to give up. Stand firm in your faith. Do not give in to sorrow or murmur against the Lord, but be thankful. Soon, your joy will be full. Friend, your promotion is on the way. Your shame shall be over, and your lifting and beauty shall be known.

PRAYER: LORD, UPHOLD ME TO STAND TILL MY TRIAL TURNS TO TRIUMPH.

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
