  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...

FEAR

Numbers 13:26-33
Devotional:- “But the men who had gone up with him said, "We are not able to go up against the people, for they are stronger than we."” (v.31) NKJV

    Fear is an act of admitting that your enemy is stronger than you. Any time you are afraid of your situation, you simply make God a liar, and His word of no effect. God’s word says, greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4). But fear makes you accept that he that is in the world is greater than He that is in you.

The word of God warns us never to be afraid because God is involved in our battle (Deut. 20:3-4). But fear will make a man accept defeat before the battle begins. Fear will easily disarm a man of his strength.

The children of Israel finished themselves by being afraid to confront their enemy, and God gave them over to defeat.

Friend, don’t be afraid, for the Lord your God is with you. He is the one fighting your battle. So you cannot lose. If the enemy looks as if they are winning, it is for their defeat and your victory to be established. Always take courage by faith in the word of God. Refuse to be afraid. The great I am is on your side. You are the one who will overcome.

Prayer: Lord, be my strength from the inside out.

“YOUR FEAR ONLY EMPOWERS YOUR ENEMY. DROP IT!”

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 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.
