But do you know that honour is better than shame? When some people are invited to occasion, oftentimes think they are so important and expecting too much honour only to earn shame in return. When you are invited to any occasion, dress well but humble yourself; you are not to be the most important. Don’t begin to think you are the only person there. Be willing to sit in the low place.

WHEN TO FAST

Matthew 9:9-17

There is no way anyone can be strong mentally or physically if he spends all his days fasting. Food is one of the most important things a humans needs to keep fit to win in the race of life. If anyone does not take time to eat good food, he may not be strong enough in life. But then, in the midst of these, there is still a need sometimes to deny oneself of food. 

Fasting is a spiritual exercise that helps you to deny yourself of the influence of the flesh to concentrate during prayer. This helps to relate with God in effective fellowship and to enjoy the revelation of the word of God (Isaiah 58:1-8). But this needs to be controlled. 

Some Christians today have turned fasting into a hunger strike. Many have become fasting specialists. Many take it as a way to bribe God when they sin. So they see fasting as what makes God give mercy. Friend, you need to know that the devil is not afraid of your fasting but your prayer from a genuine heart (Matthew 4:1-3). You need to know that fasting is afflicting your soul to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit. New level of anointing will always come when God shows you a new revelation of His word (Jeremiah 33:3). So when you fast, give room to effective meditating over the scriptures to bring solutions to your situations..

 

Friend, don’t fast without praying, don’t also fast in sorrow or when you lack food, that will be double affliction on your soul (2 Samuel 12:15-23). Your battle is the Lord’s. God expects you to grow your mind more. So, take time out to meditating in the word of God to receive instructions to move forward. You will not fail. 

Prayer: Lord, help me not to die of ignorance.

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.

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.
