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...

SLEEP ABUSE

SLEEP ABUSE

Proverbs 6:6-11
Devotional:- “How long will you slumber, O sluggard? When will you rise from your sleep?” (V.9) NKJV

    Today, we talk so much about drug abuse because of its evil effects on the lives, making people live abnormal lives. It could affect the mind and make people lose control of their lives. But little do we often talk about other things we abuse in life that could also bring life and destiny to a total disarray. One of such is excessive sleeping.

Just like men could become addicted to drugs, so also can sleep. Just like drugs could be detrimental to life, so also is excessive sleeping. When you consider the purpose of sleep, it is to have a wonderful effect on the body. It reactivates our mental and physical strength. It replaces lost energy. It relaxes our entire system and reorganizes it for better performance. 

As good as its functions, as bad it can turn to a man when it is abused or taken as pleasure. This could turn into a terrible habit. God’s word says, A little sleep, a little slumber, so poverty comes into the life of many. Friend, stop celebrating sleep. Discipline yourself. Be aware that your destiny could also be awake.  Stop sleeping over six or seven hours on average. No one receives a benefit for excessive sleeping. This is your year of progress. Move yourself out of slumber. And your entire life shall resurrect.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO BE DELIVERED FROM EXCESSIVE SLEEPING.

“THE COMPETITION OF SLEEP IS ONLY REWARDED WITH THE AWARD OF POVERTY”

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.
