GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

NEVER COVER UP

NEVER COVER UP

2 Samuel 11:14-26
Devotional:- “And he wrote in the letter, saying, "Set Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retreat from him, that he may be struck down and die'” (v.15) NKJV.

    When men sin, the next thing that often comes to the minds of men is how to cover up. This is the way some people live their lives. They often think in their mind that everyone is doing it, and it is only because they cover up that they are not caught. But we all need to know that God is a merciful God. When a man covers his sin, the guilty conscience will not let him have peace.

When David sinned with the wife of Uriah, he started looking for ways to cover it, so that people would not know, forgetting that God already knew. So, he persuaded the man to go and sleep with his wife, but he refused. So King David now decided to terminate the life of the man, thinking this would be eternal coverage. Little did he consider that time that what is covered to man is not covered to God (Proverbs 15:3; Proverbs 28:13).

Friend, if you keep covering your sin, it will lead you to commit more grievous sins. It is not possible to hide from God; stop patching up. Though you may not be able to tell anyone, tell it to God. If you feel the need to say it out look for a very mature minister of God and tell him; let him pray with you. I believe if David had called that man with wisdom and told him, God could have had mercy on him and not let the case be as that (Proverbs 28:13). Do you know that asking for the help of the Lord can deliver you from any of such trouble? Do you know that God can help you touch the heart of people so that they will forgive and forget (Proverbs 21:1)? Don’t implicate yourself further. Jesus died for your liberty. If you tell Him, He will forgive you and you will be free to fly. Peace!

PRAYER: LORD, LET ME ALWAYS ENJOY THE LIBERTY OF YOUR MERCY.

“A CONDEMNED CONSCIENCE WILL BE TOO HEAVY TO FLY

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.
