LIVING IN PURPOSE

  LIVING IN PURPOSE Proverbs 19:20-29 Devotional:- “Many plans are in a man's mind, but it is the Lord's purpose for him that will stand” (v.21) AMPC. Our God is a God of purpose. He does all things for a purpose, and He will do nothing for nothing. Everything we see in this world has a reason for existence; even the ant and the mosquito have a reason for their existence. If there is no purpose for them, they will not be created. The beauty is that everything will enter into their season of joy when they locate their purpose and stay in it. It is important that you come to know that you are created for a purpose. You also need to know that it is only in fulfilment of your purpose that you can experience great joy. It is as sweet as when a nut finds the right screw and they just fit perfectly. It is as if a door finds the right key and it opens easily. Also, life can be smooth and become interesting when you locate your purpose and walk in it. Please understand that God’s purpos...

GIVER'S JOY

 

GIVER’S JOY

Acts 20:31-38
Devotional:- “I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive'" (v.35) NKJV

A man, in his poor way of looking at things, thinks it is wiser to keep receiving. But do you know that it is more blessed to give? Some only want to enjoy receiving, and they don’t enjoy giving. Some will even give water to you as if they are giving their blood. So many don’t even have the mind of a giver. They prefer to keep saving (Proverbs 21:26).
But we need to understand the purpose of our creation. Man is created to be a giver. We are created to help others. It is only in giving that we can find joy and fulfilment. It is often said that the hand of the giver is always at the top (Proverbs 22:7). It is in giving that we can be blessed. 
Please understand that God is always looking for givers. Every time God impress it in your heart to give, He is only testing you before enlisting you among channels of blessings (Deuteronomy 8:2-3). Why? He wants to supply the needs of some people, and He is always looking for people who will make themselves vessels and channels to reach out to others So that He can keep supplying through them (Proverbs 19:17).. Therefore, the vessel cannot lack or be in want of anything.
Friend, it is more blessed to give than to receive. From now on, seek to give by the use of your talents, money and time to feed some people. Bless them and put a smile on their faces. Make good use of this season of giving. Look for someone in your neighbourhood, in your office, in your church and bless them. Do it at your level, and the New Year will bring an abundance of blessings into your life.

Prayer: Lord, plant in me a giver’s heart.
“HE THAT CHOOSES TO BE A BLESSING CANNOT BUT BE BLESSED”
