  LETTER OF LOVE 2 Corinthians 3:1-6  Devotional:- “You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read by all men” (v. 2) NKJV One of the things that true lovers love to use as a means of communication is letters of love. Do you know that it can sometimes be appreciated more than the person themselves being around? This is because letters are the expression of the intent of the heart of men. When men speak, they may commit error but when a man is writing, he means what he is saying. That is why most of the love letters written by men were not written once. When an error is detected, you don’t mind rewriting it. Do you know that the word of God is the perfect God’s love letter to man (Psalm 12:3)? There, He gave us all His promises. It is in the Bible, He told us how to enjoy all things in Him and how to have the best from Him. But much more than that, we are the ones expected to be the display and the demonstration of His love to others. You and I are actually the pictu...

PRIDE

Proverbs 16:10-19
Devotional:- “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.” (V 18) NIV

    Strength is primarily a function of grace. A man is strong because God has granted him the ngrace. That is why you will observe that each man is strong in different areas of life. The area of our strength is simply the area of our grace, and the giver of grace is God. Therefore, it demands that we humble ourselves to retain our grace.

God’s word says, God increases grace to the humble (James 4:6). This means pride is a destroyer of grace. God will withdraw from a proud man. When God withdraws from a man, he will depend on his own strength, which will soon finish. The strength of a man is like the strength of a battery without an alternator of a car. It will soon be used up

King Nebuchadnezzar was truly strong, and he did not realize that it was a function of grace. So he took to pride. And he finally became like an animal until he was humbled.

Friend, pride is a destroyer of strength. It removes people from their place of strength. Always ask for grace to be humble. Don’t let people push you up to puff up. Always take the place of the humble so as not to lose your strength. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, give me the grace to always be humble.

“A PROUD MAN IS UNKNOWINGLY DRAINING HIS OWN STRENGTH GRADUALLY”.

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.
