PURPOSE OF LOVE

  PURPOSE OF LOVE Romans 5:6-11 Devotional:- “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us..” (V. 8). NKJV Sometimes we make such a mistake as loving only our lovers. We do not often think that by this we fulfill the Law of Moses and not the law of grace, loving only those who love us and probably hating those who hate us. But this is not true love. If you understand the purpose of love, you will know that love is not needed when everyone is perfect, but most needed because we are not. The scripture we read today demonstrates one of the greatest acts of God’s love to us. And this is a revelation of God’s love to you. Even though you commit sin and He hates sin, yet He loves you. It is for your sake that He sent Jesus, His only son, to die on the cross. See, people may hate you for one reason or another, but God loves you. He so much believed in you that He had to give up His son to die for your sake (1 John 4:9-10). ...

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

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 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.
