WORLD CLASS CHRISTIAN

  WORLD CLASS CHRISTIAN Mark 16:14-20 Devotional:- “And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature” (V. 15) There are two types of Christians in the world: The world class Christians and the worldly Christian. You are either in one of these groups. The worldly Christians look to God primarily for personal needs. They are saved but self-centered. Their prayer focuses on me first and focuses on their needs, blessings and happiness or comfort. They want to use God for their purpose instead of been used for Gods purposes. “Jesus sent us to reach the world, be part”.  In contrast, world class Christians are people who are saved and know that they are here to serve the purpose of God. Find them anywhere in the world they will be serving God’s purpose. They are eager to receive personal assignment and excited about the privilege of been used by God. Everything they do in life is towards fulfilling the purpose of God and not just for worldly pleasu...

EXCUSES

Exodus 4:6-17 
Devotional:- “Then Moses said to the LORD, "O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before nor since You have spoken to Your servant; but I am slow of speech and slow of tongue” (v. 10) NKJV

    Many do not know that excusing oneself from God’s instruction is a grievous sin unto the Lord. We often like to give excuses when we are asked to do something we never desire to do. Others give excuses when they have no hope or any view of expectation in what they are called to do. Such people only do what is easy and only with immediate returns. They often don’t want to go the extra mile to do extraordinary things. Most people only want to do what they believe will bring immediate results. 

Excuses are statements that make one avoid doing what one actually wants to do. Many of us do not know that it is an act of improper view of ourselves. If you cannot view the great and mighty potential in you, your creator can. So, excuses are the refusal to tap into what God has put inside you. And this can become a weight on you to disallow your flight.

Moses never knew how much expectation God had placed on him. He never knew that his non-readiness had delayed the children of Israel from being delivered. So he looked into his past and present to unleash excuses to avoid God’s assignment for him. This is an action that always gets God annoyed with the sons of men.

I don’t know what excuses you have also been giving for your response to God’s instruction. When will you step out? He has deposited enough Virtue in you for all His instructions. Stop comparing your past with the future. Stop focusing on your inadequacies, God is more than able to help you fulfill your destiny in life. For how long will you continue to wait in wasting? Talk to Him by faith, and you will see His grace at work in your life.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO OBEY YOUR LEADING EVEN WHEN IT LOOKS RIDICULOUS.

“EVERY GOD’S DIRECTIONS IS BASED ON WHAT HE HAS PUT IN YOU THAT YOU CANNOT SEE AND NOT WHAT YOU CAN SEE”

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.
