  WHAT CAN YOU SEE? Genesis 13:7-18 Devotional:- “And the LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: "Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are-northward, southward, eastward, and westward” (V. 15) NKJV Everyone on the earth is looking forward to enter into the New Year at this season. Sometimes we forget the principle that gives birth to our joy and just continue anyhow. One of the things you must consider right now is the need to see right to have it right in the New Year. Nothing happens by mere accident. It is now you can determine what must be for you in the New Year. You just begin to see with your inner eye some things God shall do for you in the New Year (Isaiah 43:19). See, if you can’t see it you may not receive it. After Lot left Abraham. God knew that He is going to take him to another season of his life. God therefore employed this working principle. So that Abraham can be pregnant with the things God is about to birth through him and God sai...

SERVING THE LORD

SERVING THE LORD

Ephesians 6:1-9 
Devotional:- “with goodwill doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men” (v.7) NKJV

    One of the mysteries you will need to climb up is service. This is using your strength to strengthen others. It is lifting the weak. It is helping someone to become. It is equipping others to be great. Many people have not discovered that the way to be great in God is to become humble (James 4:10, 1 Peter 5:6). A strong proof of humility is the willingness to serve. Jesus said, Whoever wants to be great should be willing to be a servant (Mark 10:42-45).

If you are aiming to become great in your life, embrace service. Stop avoiding being used as a servant anywhere you are. Until you discover that you are living for the benefit of others, you may not find fulfilment in life.

We need to note that when we yield ourselves to serve, we are bound to face challenges from ignorant bosses. This does not mean we giving bad services. God’s word says that our service should be unto the Lord and not unto men (Ephesians 6:7-8). So do all you can do in that house, school, or office as unto the Lord. He is the only one who can reward service, Salary is not always the best reward for service. That is why the word of God has great promises for servants only. He promises divine protection, healing, blessing, and promotion (Exodus 23:25-27, John 12:26).

Stop serving men and money. Be God’s servant in your office. This does not mean you should not be paid for what you do, but money should not be our main motivator. Our strong motive should be the kingdom of God. Our services should be as unto the Lord. He is a faithful rewarder (Hebrews 11:6). Serve Him with your time, talent, and substance. You can sponsor the spreading of the gospel of the kingdom of God. It’s your turn to be rewarded and promoted. Congratulations! 

PRAYER: LORD, GIVE ME A SERVANT’S HEART

“IF YOU CANNOT SERVE YOU CANNOT BE SERVED”

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.
