  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...

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”

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.
