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). ...

STRENGTH FOR YOU

STRENGTH FOR YOU

Isaiah 41:8-14
Devotional:- “Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand” (V. 10) NKJV

    Part of the unfailing promises of God is to continue to strengthen His children. So, the word of God to you today is that He will strengthen you. No matter the area you need strength, be it finances, family, business connections or ministry, the Lord will strengthen you. As the Lord is giving you a promise today, you need to know how to connect to His covenant promises for your strength.

This is possible when you draw strength from His promises to build your faith. To draw on the word of God is to meditate on the word. Faith grows in us as we meditate in the word or receive a word from the Lord (Romans 10:17). The word of God is a living word (Hebrews 4:12). When the Spirit of the word is drawn into your spirit, it produces faith in you for your strength (John 6:63). That is why God’s word says it is only by faith we can overcome (1 John 5:4). 

Take time out to meditate in the word of God daily till the word produces the strength of faith in you for your victory. Read the promises to yourself again and again till your spirit is baptised into it. Then you will find the strength of God coming into you. You can then take steps of faith in this strength of faith, and you will find signs of His strength following you. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, I receive your promise for me for today.

“FAITH IS THE STRENGTH OF GOD FOR YOUR VICTORY”

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.
