LIVING IN YOUR PURPOSE

  LIVING IN YOUR PURPOSE Ecclesiastics 4:1-6 Devotional:- "Again, I saw that for all toil and every skillful work a man is envied by his neighbor. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind” (V.4)   One of the most frustrating things in life is when people don’t know what exactly to live for. In that case they just live doing whatever they find others living for.  So many people live their lives driven by guilt. So they keep regretting their steps and past. Some live all their lives on resentment and anger. So many lives are in disarray because they are victims of transfer of aggression. So many lives are driven by fear of many things, so many live their lives driven by materialism, so they live a live that is never satisfied pursuing money. Other lives are driven by the need for approval. So it is what people say about them that determine their joy. The best way to live is to be driven by purpose for which God made you.  When you allow God’s purpose for your life...

KNOWING HIS WAYS

KNOWING HIS WAYS

Isaiah 55:1-11
Devotional:- “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are my ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.” (V. 9) NKJV

    One of the things we need to know about God is His ways. If we don’t know His ways, we may not be able to follow Him. When you see anyone demonstrating the power of God, it is because His ways have been made known to him/her. God’s word says He made his ways known to Moses and His acts to the children of Israel (Psalm 103:7).

His ways are His methods and His approaches. These are how God goes about doing His things. These are His approach to matters. These are His reactions to life (Psalm 103:7). God will not do anything for the fun of it. There is a purpose God does things in His ways. His ways make His power work in our lives. Sometimes we think, must it go that way? Or can’t we do it another way? But His ways are not mere methods but an approach to His power.

Christians are men and women who are living like Christ. They live in His ways. They approach life matters like Him. The three and a half years of the ministry of Jesus were to show us the way of the Father so that we can live like Him.

Friend, if you really want to see God’s power manifest in your life, start to study His ways. When he needed water, what did he do? When he needed money, what did He do? When He opens the blind eyes, what does He do? The principle of God’s life was revealed to us in Christ, and since it is His principle, it will work anywhere. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, open my eyes to know your ways. 

“PRINCIPLES WELL UNDERSTOOD WILL WORK ANYWHERE.”

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.
