YOU ARE FROM GOD

  YOU ARE FROM GOD Colossians 1:9-18 Devotional:- “For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him” (V. 16) One of the greatest troubles of human life is people living out of their purpose. Until you find your purpose and fit into it, life will continue to be a struggle. Locating the meaning of human life is one of the greatest adventures someone can embark on. This is because when the purpose of a thing is not known abuse is inevitable. That is why the human life is so abused today.  As God’s kingdom citizens, finding the purpose of life and the meaning of life becomes easier when we source for it from the word of God. The best purpose of a product is known by the maker. To locate our purpose on earth, we must begin with our maker. The word of God says God made the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1).

DISCOVER YOURSELF

DISCOVER YOURSELF

John 1:19-28
Devotional:- “He said: "I am 'The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Make straight the way of the LORD,"' as the prophet Isaiah said" (v. 23) NKJV 

    In the school of success, one of the primary demands is self-discovery. The lack of it is the reason for all the confusion in the world today. No one can succeed by being another person. Life will be full of struggle and constraints if a man is not himself.

God has created us in the world for His glory. But each of us has our place in the universal plan of God. It is this plan that determines who God creates and for what purpose. It is a principle that determines your composition. You are sent here on assignment to carry out a specific task for the Lord. You are created to fulfil some part of the universal plan of God. So you are relevant and important. You are not like anyone else. You are uniquely created for a unique function with a unction. Who you are is simply a function of what you are sent to do. Until you discover yourself, life may keep going towards frustration.

To be able to discover yourself, you need to examine yourself and carefully observe your personality: that is, your temperament, what you like and what you don't. How you like to do things. Observe whatever gets you excited and what gets you upset. These are pointers to your purpose of creation. Then identify your gift, grace and talent. These are put in you to help you carry out your God given assignments on earth. Your grace is the excelling gift among others. That is what you are anointed with. This is not a year of waste for you. It's never too late to restart. It is as you discover yourself that the world will discover your glory. It is a new year for you.

Prayer: Lord, open my inner eyes to see your uniqueness in me.

“IT IS DISCOVERY THAT BRINGS RECOVERY”

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.
