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...

WILLING SACRIFICES

1 Chronicles 29:1-9
Devotional:‐ “Then the people rejoiced, for they had offered willingly, because with a loyal heart they had offered willingly to the LORD; and King David also rejoiced greatly” (v.9) NKJV

Generations of men have always misunderstood giving. To them it looks like they are reducing when God is asking them to give. Also, most people have not come to the understanding that we are creatures made to find fulfilment only when we give. You need to observe that orange is a waste when no one suck it. Also, life will be a waste when it benefits no one. If you really want joy, one of the strongest sources is a sense of fulfilment (sense of success). And this can only come when you have joyfully given unto the Lord or others (2 Timothy 4:6). That is, when you have willingly flowed out to others.
The people we read about today were challenged to give willingly to the work of the Lord. And this brought them great joy. See, the greatest moment of your life can only be when others benefit from what God has helped you to attain. If you therefore want to be happy, you need to desire to willingly bless others with your life.
Organise how people can be raised throughout your life. Do you know that this should be your ultimate goal on earth? Everything you have will finish, but the life you affect will keep affecting others. And though you may no longer be around, your work keeps speaking. That is why God ask us to always give with joy (2 Corinthians 9:7, 2 Timothy 4:7). Your joy shall be full.

Prayer: Lord, give me a giving spirit.
“GIVING IS THE ONLY MEANS OF YOUR CONTINUITY”

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.
