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). ...

CALLING HIS NAME

CALLING HIS NAME

Philippians 2:5-10 
Devotioonal:- “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name” (v.9) NKJV

    One of the believers’ weapons of warfare is the name of Jesus. The Bible calls it a strong tower. Anytime the righteous runs into it, he will find refuge and be saved (Proverbs 18:10). This name is not just ordinary or common, as some people think, but it is a name that has been given to silence all other authorities and powers. David recognised this and declared it to the face of Goliath that he had come in the name of the Lord (1 Samuel 17:45). That is, the name of the Lord of hosts of heaven. Calling that name brings the heavenly host against your enemy.

The name is respected in heaven, on earth, in the sea and the sky. It works everywhere. It is the only name that offers salvation from every situation (Acts 4:12). In times of confrontation, it is a name you must learn to declare aloud. If you are ashamed to do that, it is your fault. Death and sickness must bow to that name (Romans 6:9). Jesus had swallowed death up in victory.

As you call on that name at any time, you gain the attention of heaven’s army ready to fight in your battle. So learn to call that name every time and everywhere, even in your dreams, and you will always find victory.

Prayer: Lord, let your name always work wonders in my life.

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.
