HE NEVER CONDEMNS

  HE NEVER CONDEMNS John 8:1-11  Devotional:- “She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more”” (V. 11) NKJV One of the tricks the devil often used against man is to make us feel condemned. To be condemned is a feeling of self-judgment. It is the act of judging oneself to death when God has not. A man with condemnation cannot be bold or courageous. He cannot exercise faith. He cannot take a risk and so cannot find it easy to succeed. The truth is that God does not condemn man. So it is like man to feel condemned, and it is the handiwork of the devil. It was said about Jesus, “for God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but that through Him might be saved” (John 3:17).  God has appointed Jesus to judge the earth. But that is not now. Condemnation is a feeling that one has been written off and is not worthy of living anymore. The only people who will face God’s final condemnation are those who refused to...

SELF PERCEPTION

SELF PERCEPTION

Numbers 13:26-33
Devotional:- “There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight” (v.33) NKJV

    No one will be able to fly when he has a wrong perception of him/themself. Wrong self-perception is to look down on your personality. To disqualify yourself from the race set ahead of you. To look at yourself as being weak. This could become a weight on you and hinder you from being able to fly in life.

This happens to us because sometimes we allow people’s wrong comments about us to dominate our minds. Some people have the picture of successful men and women in their mind, and anytime they look at themselves in the mirror, they can't see themselves fit into a mode of success. Some people’s experience of failure makes them conclude that they can’t make it. But none of these is a strong enough reason for you to undervalue yourself.

Though God had invested so much to bring the Israelites so far, and now they are about to enter the land of Canaan but they now see themselves as grasshoppers that are not able to possess the land. This got God annoyed, and they all died in the wilderness as a result of their fear. Self-intimidation is an activity of demons and darkness. People need to be set free from such (2 Timothy 1:7). We should be careful not to equate it to a bad mood or feelings. It takes the light of the truth to shatter such spirit (Psalm 119:130). Please don’t just blame and mock such a person. 

Friend, stop underrating yourself for greater is He that is in you (1 John 4:4). You can do all things through Christ that strengthens you (Philippians 4:13). Look at the mirror again today and know that you are an Image of God (Genesis 1:26-30). You are the very image that could be referred to as success. You can make it, no matter what men may say about you. The only final word on your life is the word of God. You are made to fit into your destiny. God cannot make a mistake. There is a glorious purpose for your make. From the day you see yourself able, your strength will be restored, and you will also move to your next level of glory.

PRAYER: LORD, I DECREE MY FREEDOM FROM THE SPIRIT OF TIMIDITY

“NEVER YOU SAY I CAN’T DO IT BUT I CAN”

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.
