JOY OF PARENTS

  JOY OF PARENTS Proverbs 15:11-21 “A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish man despises his mother” (V.20). NKJV One of the things that brings perpetual joy and gladness to parents at their old age is the lives of their children. When a man sees his children living right, prospering and serving God, it brings great joy that no one can take away from him. Many parents are living in sadness because of the terrible lives the children are living, but the truth is that they never invested the “wisdom” of the word of God in these children when they were young. They left these children to live their lives the way they wanted, now the consequences are manifesting. Beloved, if you want to have joy in your old age, plant into your children now the word of God that can make them wise, and when they are wise and behave wisely, your joy will know no bounds. Prayer: Lord, help me to raise Godly children. “YOUR CHILDREN ARE YOUR TREASURES”

WRONG COUNSEL

WRONG COUNSEL

1 Samuel 17:25-36
Devotional:- “And Saul said to David, "You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth" (v.33) NKJV 

    Everyone living on the earth carries great and mighty potential that could change the world and make their world great. Every great invention we can see in the world today, ranging from electronics, to computers to automobiles, and many more, are all products of the great potential God deposited in man. Do you know that you are also greatly endowed?

There is something that can make your greatness silent and undiscovered, and that is when you listen only to the negative counsel of people. These are people who often tell you that you can’t do something special or make you feel you are too small to attempt what you are about to do.

Also, if you always listen to positive counsel, then the greatness inside you will be able to manifest, and then you can be your best. Inside, David is the ability to deliver a nation from their enemy, Goliath the Philistine, but he is faced with different kinds of negative counsel. If he had listened to negative counsel that day, he would not have been able to overcome the Philistines.

Be careful, therefore, of the kind of people you are listening to, the kind of books you reading, the kind of film you are watching. All of these are part of what will determine your decision to go forward in life, even amid challenges. Be careful of who is speaking to you (Mark 4:24). That goes a long way to determine what you will be able to do or not. Something great is about to take off in your life. You will soon begin to see the grace of God shining in your life, and your glory will be revealed.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO ALWAYS LISTEN TO WHAT WILL BRING OUT YOUR GLORY IN MY LIFE.

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.

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.
