  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...

SORROW

Nehemiah 8:4-12
Devotional:- “Then he said to them, “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” (v. 10) NKJV

    It is the target of the enemy, using every avenue to make a strong man weak. One of the weapons of the enemy to make a man weak is sorrow. This is not just a psychological feeling, it’s an affliction released or unleashed upon the life of a man from the pit of hell. No matter how strong a man is, when he allows sorrow, he is coming down. God’s word says; sorrow rotten bones (Proverbs 17:22).

Nehemiah knows that the people were able to build because they were enjoying the strength of joy. The way the enemy can weaken them is by causing sorrow. So, when the people started weeping, he quickly cautioned them and reminded them that it is joy that produces their strength. The reason they were sorrowful was because they remembered the past; to them, it was necessary to be sorrowful. But they were simply ignorant.

Friend, there is not enough good reason to be sorrowful. It will do more harm to you than good. God’s word says; sorrow breaks the heart (Proverbs 15:13), and you need to know that a broken heart is not easily mended. There is so much glory waiting for you in the future if Jesus tarries. You can’t afford to miss your glory. Say no to sorrow. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from the spirit of sorrow.

“SORROW IS ALIEN TO YOUR SYSTEM; REJECT IT.

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.
