JOY OF PARENTS

  JOY OF PARENTS Proverbs 15:11-21 “A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish man despises his mother” (V.20). NKJV One of the things that brings perpetual joy and gladness to parents at their old age is the lives of their children. When a man sees his children living right, prospering and serving God, it brings great joy that no one can take away from him. Many parents are living in sadness because of the terrible lives the children are living, but the truth is that they never invested the “wisdom” of the word of God in these children when they were young. They left these children to live their lives the way they wanted, now the consequences are manifesting. Beloved, if you want to have joy in your old age, plant into your children now the word of God that can make them wise, and when they are wise and behave wisely, your joy will know no bounds. Prayer: Lord, help me to raise Godly children. “YOUR CHILDREN ARE YOUR TREASURES”

BELIEVE IN WORKING

Proverbs 28:14-22
Devotional:- “He who tills his land will have plenty of bread, But he who follows frivolity will have poverty enough!poverty” (v.19) NKJV

     Many people, especially Christians in this part of the world, have not woken up to the fact that nothing will fall from heaven. Everything a man will ever need is already provided here on Earth. We only need to be willing to work to locate them. From the day you begin to know that the blessing of God is waitıng at your work, your life will begin to change for good.

Today, so many people have this wrong conception about God’s blessing. So many have packed the church and are no longer working but praying. They believe someone will soon come to give them millions of naira, or that one day they will pick it on the road, or it will drop from an aircraft. Men of God could have this testimony because they work to lift people, so men must bless them in return. But do you know that your blessing, help and favour are waiting at your work as a reward (Proverbs 14:23; James 2:17; Philippians 2:12). 

Yes, God may use people to bless you at times, but it will be terrible if you spend your entire life waiting for what men may give you when God has given you what you can do in exchange for money. Stop chasing fantasies or building a castle in the air, i.e. pursuing things that are not real. Friend, go out and work. That one day you always think about may never come. I have never heard that one dollar mistakenly fell from an aircraft. Most people you are waiting on are also waiting on the Lord. God has promised to bless the work of your hands, so go and work. 

Prayer: Lord, help me to appreciate my ability to work and work out my salvation

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.

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.
