  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...

IGNORANCE

IGNORANCE

Hosea 4:4-10
Devotional:- “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children” (v.6) NKJV

    One of the strongest enemies of your strength in God is ignorance. There are several categories of ignorance. There is a level yet to be out. There is another level of no light. But whichever of the levels is affecting a man, it is so strong that it will destroy the Strength of that man. I want to say that either of the levels can be removed by seeking the Lord (Isaiah 40:31)

Ignorance can hide a man’s strength from him. It will convince the man that he is weak. It will make you doubt your strength. It will make a man afraid to exercise strength. Ignorance will make a man run away from what he can defeat. It can waste the entire life of a man in failure.

It is amazing that so many believers, though they attend church yet hate knowledge. They believe knowledge will impose responsibility on them, so they love to avoid knowledge to stay simple. But when challenges come, they will be too weak to stand. As a child of God, you have a lot of potential in you, but it takes knowledge to reveal it to you. If you refuse to make yourself available to learn, you will remain weak. Take time out to learn through the word of God, read books written by men of faith. Never you stop learning, and your strength shall be released to succeed in all you do. Wherever you are weak, it is knowledge that you need to overcome (Proverbs 24:5). Knowledge gives you skills, and skills brings success (Ecclesiastes 10:10). You will overcome.

Prayer: Lord, release the grace for light on me.

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.
