TAKE THE LOWLY PLACE  Luke 14:7-14 Devotional:- But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes he may say to you, 'Friend, go up higher.' Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you.

But do you know that honour is better than shame? When some people are invited to occasion, oftentimes think they are so important and expecting too much honour only to earn shame in return. When you are invited to any occasion, dress well but humble yourself; you are not to be the most important. Don’t begin to think you are the only person there. Be willing to sit in the low place.

ANOINTING OF JOY

ANOINTING OF JOY

Isaiah 61:1-6

“To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified” (V. 3) NKJV


    You must realise that you are not created for sorrow. The atmosphere in heaven is always one of joy; heaven is not a place for sorrow. From the beginning, we were creatures of joy. He that created us cannot make us for sorrow. It is a pity that a greater percentage of the time of man is full of sorrow (it was not so from the beginning). This is definitely a result of the enemy stealing the joy of man and giving him the yoke of sorrow.

That is why the Son of God was manifested to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). Christ has come to give an anointing of joy instead of mourning and sorrow. It means from now on, your sorrow shall be over. Anointing of joy breaks the yoke of sorrow (Isaiah 10:27). The oil represents the virtue or the power of the Spirit of God. The yoke of sorrow is the trouble that the sorrow of life has brought into your life. I see the yoke of sorrow broken away from your life from now on in Jesus' name.

For this very reason, Jesus came to anoint you with oil of joy. Christ means the anointed one, and He is now dwelling in you. One of the anointings He brings to you is the anointing of Joy. All you need to do is to believe God’s word that says Christ, the anointed one, is in you (1Cor 3:16), and your faith will start to say ‘No’ to sorrow, for the Lord has anointed you for joy for the remaining days of your life. Joy shall be your lot. God has set you free from sorrow, and now He shall encompass you around with joy. If you can believe, it shall be so, and your joy shall have no end. Welcome to your season of joy.

Prayer: Lord, anoint me with the oil of joy.

“THE ANOINTING OF JOY IS YOUR KEY TO JOY”

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.

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.
