STRENGTH IN GOD

STRENGTH IN GOD 2 Corinthians 10:1-6 Devotional:- “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (V4) NKJV      Many Christians today have so much confusion about their strength in God. It has made the church think that a few limited people can demonstrate the strength of God. So, multitudes are weak in strength. Though they come to church, yet in times of challenges, you see them rushing to another Christian whom they know to be stronger in God. Neglecting the fact that a New Testament believer is a potential priest and king for Christ (Revelation 5:10; Mark 16:17).

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”

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.

ALTERNATIVES

ALTERNATIVES II Kings 5:1-15 Devotional:- “Are not the Abanah and the Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not wash in them and be clean?" So he turned and went away in a rage”. (V12) NKJV      It is always the trick of the devil to make us lose sight of God. So he often makes us see alternatives to God. His own goal is to take people away from God. The enemies so much make his way look easy and quick but with eternal implications. That is why you need to grow your faith and not yield to his tricks. The devil’s alternative will always be with covenants that bind into darkness.
