  THE PAST Isaiah 43:8-21 Devotional:- “Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old.” (v.18) NKJV God, who gives us a memory, want us to use our past experiences to help us make quality decisions in the future, but the past is always the enemy of the future for many. If you don’t know how to manage your memory system of the past, it is capable of standing against your success in the future. As emotional beings, we are sometimes faced with the challenges of memories of our past experiences, our errors and failures. You will observe that at every point of decision-making to progress, the enemy will bring back to your memory the past experiences of your failure. This is just to bring fear to your heart and make you doubt the possibility of your success, so you could lose your joy. The scripture we read today instructs us to let go of the past. God is starting a brand-new thing with you. He is giving you new experiences of success and breakthrough. You need to lea...

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.

To understand what courage is. You can view it from discouragement. Courage is the opposite of discouragement. It is an internal strength that is generated by a great desire to achieve a goal. Everyone has courage, but it differs in levels. When the level of courage generated by a man is not strong, then achievement may not be easy.

Most of the glorious things God has prepared for you this year need a good level of courage to have them. God told Joshua, “Except you are courageous, you may not enter Canaan.” This message is also for you. The way to keep growing in a good level of courage is to be highly selective about the kind of information you are receiving. Learn to always be where you will be encouraged. This is gotten in the house of God (Psalm 84:7). You also need to learn to always encourage yourself. Waiting on others to always encourage you is a weak level (1 Samuel 30:6). You will always need to be highly determined to achieve your goal. Also, watch out to make sure you are not doing something that is against God’s will, that will make you lack divine support (John 15:5). Any program or project that God is not involved in will surely fail at the end. Acknowledge God in all your ways (Proverbs 3:5-6). Always go out with a winning heart, ie expecting victory by the help of the Lord. And God will always surprise you. Peace.

Prayer: Lord, help me to develop enough strength of courage for my achievement this year.

IF YOU ALWAYS REFUSE TO BE DISCOURAGED, YOU WILL ALWAYS ACHIEVE YOUR GOAL

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.
