So he cut off a stick, and threw it in there; and he made the iron float’’ (V.6) NKJV  Sometimes when we read about some great wonders of God in the Bible, something makes us feel it was because the people were very special. But we need to know that they are men of like passion (James 5:17-18). They were just exactly like we are, but they were only men of faith. This makes God to work wonders through them. The sons of the prophet needed a big place of dwelling. So they decide to cut trees to make a new home. Thank God they requested that Elisha should go with them. As they were cutting the trees, the axe head fell into the deep river. And the man of God asked the Holy Spirit for what to do. The Holy Spirit was what they also depended upon, and there was a miracle. Friend, you also have the Holy Spirit. That stick is the word of God. Speak to the sinking situatio...

CONCEPTION Genesis 21:1-7 Devotional:- “For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him” (v. 2)      Faith is the ability to conceive.

That is why you must not allow science to just explain some things that can take away the aspect of God. That way, we tend to think they just happened, so, when they fail we get confused.

That is why you should learn to take the word in every situation. For you to have victory, you must fight with something, you don’t fight empty handed. In the kingdom of God, our rod of authority is the word of God (2 Corinthians 10:4-5).

How will i get another one? This fear is because most people do not know God to be a great provider.

Business is whatever you are doing to earn income. God will not accommodate idleness with anyone because He invested heavily in us.

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.

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.
