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...

COMING WITH SINGING

Isaiah 51:7-12

Devotional:- “So the ransomed of the LORD shall return, And come to Zion with singing, With everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness; Sorrow and sighing shall flee away” (V. 11) NKJV


Although the world is currently experiencing an increase in sorrow and sorrowful news, God has no such plan for His children. Zion is the place where God has ordained joy. That is why all God’s children must locate their Zion. This is where we gather to worship the name of the Lord, which we refer to as a place of worship today (the church).

In our scripture today, God’s word reminds us of how we are to come to Zion to find the restoration of our joy and sustain it. This is by worshipping the Lord; this is by talking about His deeds in life. Wherever God is praised, He will always manifest His power. Then the redeemed of the Lord shall always return with singing to Zion. In other words, you and your family can start to praise God in that house, office, or fellowship, and then everyone will start to return with joy. Anytime you go out, God will cause you to return with joy.

Friend, you can turn your house, your shop or office into the Zion of the Lord, a place of praise. Then God will make you to always return with joy, and sorrow shall no more have room around you. This is because wherever God is praised, He will be there (Psalm 22:3), and He will always come with the fullness of His joy (Psalm 16:11).


Prayer: Lord, give me a praiseful heart

“A PRAISEFUL PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS BE A JOYFUL PEOPLE”

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.
