GRATITUDE Habakkuk 3:8-19 Devotional:-  “Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation..” (V. 18) NKJV      One of the great weapons to help you retain your strength in God is gratitude. This is because ingratitude reduces our strength. That is why it is often said that gratitude is the mother of altitude. Gratitude strengthens you with peace sufficient for progress. It makes God approve of you for your next level in life (Luke 17:17-19).

WHAT IS STRENGTH?

WHAT IS STRENGTH?

I Corinthians 2:1-6
Devotional:- “And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,” (v. 4) NKJV

    All God’s children must understand what strength is. This present world only recognizes that there is strength, but most people don’t understand what it is or where it is from. If anyone is not strong, neither will he/she be able to share with the strong (Isaiah 53:12). Strength is not in words, but it is in the demonstration of power.

We are confronted here with powers, so we also must be equipped with stronger powers if we must overcome (Ephesians 6:10-12).

Strength is an inbuilt ability. It is deposited inside and manifests outside. Strength is the energy of God deposited in a man by His Spirit (Acts 1:8). Someone can only gain strength when he/she has equipped themselves with it. It is not possible to be strong and not demonstrate it when it is needed. Strength will always seek expression for victory.

There are different types of strength. It could be spiritual, mental or physical. These three are interdependent. It is the strength of your spirit that determines that of your mind, and that of your mind determines that of your body. Physical strength is useful in physical races and battle, but spiritual and mental strength are the real strength of life. You can gain the strength of God by fellowshipping with Him through His word and prayers (Psalm 84:7). The word of God commands us to be strong in the Lord (Ephesians 6:10-12). Those who grow their muscles do it consciously. It takes a conscious step to grow your strength in God. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, open my understanding to the way of spiritual strength.

“GOD, WHO IS A SPIRIT, IS THE STRENGTH OF ALL THE LIVING”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

YOU HAVE TO FIGHT Deuteronomy 20:1-4 Devotional:- “When you go out to battle against your enemies, and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not be afraid of them; for the LORD your God is with you, who brought you up from the land of Egypt” (V. 4) NKJV      God’s children must come to realize that our victory has been purchased by by the blood of Jesus, but we have to fight to establish it in our lives. If you have to face the devil, it will be impossible to defeat him. he was in a greater glory before than you are now. He has been in a battle game before the creation of man (Revelation 12:7-8). He knows far more than we do.
