  GIFT AND GRACE Romans 12:3-8 Devotional:- “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith”(V. 6) NIV   One of the means through which we can demonstrate our love to others is by using the grace and the gifts that are in our lives. As a child of God, you are privileged to enjoy two levels of gifts. The first are the talents and gifts. The second are the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There is no one who is not talented in one area or the other. It may be to cook, sing, design, draw or write. It could also be in the area of sport or decoration. But as a child of God, there is another dimension of gifts in your life given by the Holy Spirit. These are gifts of prophecy, healing, knowledge, wisdom, working of miracles, discernment of spirit, diverse tongues or interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:6-10). If you don’t know that you have any of this gift, it is because you have not care...

WINGS OF HIS GRACE

WINGS OF HIS GRACE

2 Corinthians 6:1-10
Devotional:- “We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain” (V.. 1) NKJV

    Many children of God today are wasters of the grace of God. As ignorant as many Christians are, they don't often want to hear the teachings about the grace of God. I have heard many Christians complain that it is the teaching of grace that has made sin multiply in the church. So many Christians desire to be governed by the Old Testament rather than the gospel of grace.

Unconsciously, many of us agree with the religious beliefs that sinners should be punished by either removing their eye or cutting their hand to teach others it is wrong to do what they have done, forgetting that we also are guilty of an offence in one area or the other. If God will mark sin, who will stand (Galatians 2:21)

Grace means unmerited favour. It is receiving what you don’t deserve. By the grace of God we are saved (Ephesians 2:8). By His grace we are forgiven (Ephesians 2:7). We are justified by grace (Romans 3:24). We are elected by His grace (Romans 11:5). We are given God’s gift and ability by His grace (Romans 5- 15: 1 Corinthians 15:10). We have good hope and are blessed and yet shall be blessed by His grace (II Thessalonians 2:16: II Corinthians 9:8) And more.

Friend, stop feeling condemned. The grace of God has justified you (Romans 5:1, 33-32). Learn to depend on His grace that is available to you. Stop frustrating His grace (Galatians 2:21). Stand strong in His grace. Walk in the consciousness of His grace. Exploit His grace by the revelation of His word. Work in obedience to His word to enjoy the blessing of His grace. Stand by faith to enjoy the grace of His power. Stop going about like a finished man. God’s grace should produce boldness and confidence in you. The grace of God can bring all things to you. Let the grace of God produce the fruit of righteousness in you (Romans 6:1). The grace of God will bring glory upon your destiny, and you shall fly.

Prayer: Lord, let Your grace fill my heart and my life.

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.
