APPRECIATION

  APPRECIATION Psalm 92:1-10 Devotional:- “It is good to give thanks to the LORD, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High” (v.1) NKJV It is in the habit of most people that when they are expecting something from God, they will do everything possible to gain His favour. But as soon as it is done, that thing loses value to them. So, people only value what they don’t have. This sometimes does not make us have a heart of gratitude to God. We will always promise to give thanks, but as soon as we receive our expectations, some will forget to give thanks. Many do not know that the opportunity or privilege that is available to them is what qualifies them for what they are expecting. But they look down on this because their expectations have not been met. Your health is more important than travelling abroad. The breath of life you enjoy is far more valuable than the car or job you are expecting. In fact, this qualifies you for those things. Friend, no matter what God has done for you,...

GOD’S BLESSINGS

Proverbs 10:14-24
Devotional:- “The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it” (v.22) NKJV


God, in his goodness, have been so gracious to the sons of men in this season, and many of God’s children are beginning to enjoy the blessing of the Lord. This is God’s faithfulness. If you have not entered into your portion now, it shall come. It is important that we understand that these blessings can only be preserved when we disallow the seed of sorrow to come into them.
The scripture we read today says, “it's only God’s blessing that is void of sorrow”. This means when we allow God to be our source, our joy is guaranteed. It means dubiously seeking a blessing will produce sorrow. We should be careful not to crave for money and employ wicked means to attain it. Such is a seed of sorrow (Proverbs 15:27).
Please refuse to join those who are cheating, stealing, killing and doing all sorts of things today to get money. Such is not a blessing but a curse. God’s hand will surely be against such till it is destroyed (Proverbs 13:11). Look unto God to help you. Seek counsel from men of God on your business and pursuit. Be careful to retain the fear of the Lord in your heart.
See, he that gets it wrongly will lose it. He who afflicts someone to make it will also lose it in affliction. So love the way of the Lord, it is the way of peaceful prosperity, and your life will be filled with joy.

Prayer: Lord, plant your fear in my heart for joy
“IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET JOY IN A DUBIOUS WAY”

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.
