  JOY OF PARENTS Proverbs 15:11-21 “A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish man despises his mother” (V.20). NKJV One of the things that brings perpetual joy and gladness to parents at their old age is the lives of their children. When a man sees his children living right, prospering and serving God, it brings great joy that no one can take away from him. Many parents are living in sadness because of the terrible lives the children are living, but the truth is that they never invested the “wisdom” of the word of God in these children when they were young. They left these children to live their lives the way they wanted, now the consequences are manifesting. Beloved, if you want to have joy in your old age, plant into your children now the word of God that can make them wise, and when they are wise and behave wisely, your joy will know no bounds. Prayer: Lord, help me to raise Godly children. “YOUR CHILDREN ARE YOUR TREASURES”

MONEY TRAP

MONEY TRAP

1 Timothy 6:17-21
Devotional:-“Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy.” (V.17) NKJV

    The lives of many people would have been colourful today if not for The trap of money. Many people can no longer enjoy their lives simply because they have little money. Their wealth has created restlessness and sleeplessness for them. The so-called riches have created so much fear in their lives that they wish they didn’t have it, but they can’t do without it. Some fellows have suddenly grown to be semi-devils because of the little blessing God gave them. Everyone who works under them is in danger of being cursed or shouted at daily.

The scripture we read today gave us a solution to this trouble in the life of people. This is happening because some people get their wealth wrongly, so they are afraid of losing it (Proverbs 13:11). Some others experience this because they make money and material things their little gods, so they put all their hope in them. Therefore, they cannot sleep when their hope is not sure.

Many also experience these traps because they refuse to be a blessing to God’s Kingdom and others. We should put our hope in God and not in material things.

Friend, the only secured money or materials is the one invested. And the first place to do that is in God. There are also many other legitimate ways to invest for your continuous harvest. Be happy to serve the Lord with your money, car, house, and children. Then you are Sure that he will keep it, and you will find rest for your soul.

PRAYER: LORD, LET MY WHOLE LIFE BE FOR YOU

“LASTING RICHES ARE THE ONE INVESTED IN GOD AND IN GOOD PLACES”

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.
