  NEVER FORGOTTEN Isaiah 49:13-23  Devotional:- “Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you” (V. 15) NKJV Delays in some situations of life could sometimes make one feel forgotten. This could make anyone feel neglected and hated. Have you ever been in a situation where everyone was served but you alone were forgotten? This could bring a big embarrassment. But God cannot make such a mistake. Before He began serving, you were the one in His mind. His mind is filled with the memory of your love.  The scripture we read today says, even if a mother forgets to nurse her child, which I think is impossible, God said He cannot forget you. If a woman, for example, is far away from a child which has not been weaned, two of them will not find it easy. The baby will soon be crying, and the mother’s breast will soon be heavy and painful. Friend, God can never forget you. That is why He said He ...

GOOD NEWS

GOOD NEWS

Proverbs 25:20-28
Devotional:- “As cold water to a weary soul, So is good news from a far country.” (v.25) NKJV

One of the things you must embrace to retain a life of joy is good news. These are news or information about what the Lord has done and what He is doings, e.g. news of His redemptive work, news of provision for divine healing, promotion, increase, abundant joy, breakthrough, etc. This is to hear or read testimonies of victory and success of others, and then you are drawing closer to your own testimony.

It is important that you recognise one of the devices of the devil today, and this is by promoting bad news. These are news of evil, accidents, and disasters happening all over the world. It is really an advanced trick of the enemy to steal people’s joy. Bad news weakens people’s faith and confidence. It makes men believe that God cannot help them overcome evil. So, these breed fear and doubt in the human heart. If you like to be strong and live your life in joy, then you must discard bad news always. Some rejoice at sharing bad news; please avoid such people.

Friend, even if you hear this once in a while, be careful not to allow them to take root in your heart. You cannot totally avoid hearing the bad news, but learn to discard it. Stop sympathising with people to destroy your heart. You need to know that the moment sorrow gains entrance to your heart, the presence of God is threatened (Psalm 16:11). He cannot dwell in a sorrowful heart. The moment fear steps in, faith will be weak. So there are many things to lose in bad news. Keep it off your mind and you shall retain your joy.

Prayer: Help me to always discard bad news when it comes.
“ONLY GOOD NEWS WILL GIVE YOU A GOOD LIFE”

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.
