Title: Be a Friend!

-
A friend loveth at all times, And a brother is born for adversity. Proverbs 17:17 KJV
https://bible.com/bible/1/pro.17.17.KJV
Devotion: We are all made to live in communities except you don't want to. When we were young we used to go to the village where our dad had a Cocoa plantation. Any year that they had shortage of labourers the men of the village would choose a date and go to specific plantation to work and clear of the undergrowth. The used to do it like thrice a week and everybody's farm would be clean. That's community effort, everyone was a friend and a brother.These days of individualism none does such again.
  In other life issues we have a friend - who loves us all the time and who assists in time of adversity. This friend is Jesus, He is always there for you and me. He is also a brother so whenever you're in the valley of life and all help seem to disappear just call on Jesus. Do not rely on your power, your God and friend Jesus will rise up for you. He assisted me severally and He's the reason I'm standing praise God.
 It is weekend, I urge you to go out there and be a friend and a brother to someone who needs you today. You don't have to know him priorly when you see anyone in adversity you will know, just render the help, love and pray for him. That is what we are called to do. 
 Kindly share your testimony with us here. Hallelujah.

Title: Divine Acceleration.

-
Genesis 41:40-41  Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt. Devotion: Have you ever felt like your dreams are taking too long to come true? Like you're walking a slow path while others seem to be racing ahead? Take heart—God is a God of acceleration! When He steps in, He can take you from waiting to walking in His promises in an instant.   Consider the story of Joseph. Sold into slavery by his own brothers, imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit—it seemed like his dreams were slipping further away. But when God's appointed time arrived, Joseph was promoted from the prison to the palace in a single day! (Genesis 41:14-41). Years of waiting, hardship, and ...

Title: Wisdom from God.

-
Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV [5] Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, And he shall direct thy paths. Devotion:  If you’ve ever gone on a trip somewhere you’ve never been, you know how important it is to have a map. Maps help us navigate the unknown areas ahead. Similarly, God’s Word helps us navigate through the unknown seasons of life. It reveals God’s wisdom, which can be essential in guiding our lives.  The book of Proverbs is filled with wisdom and knowledge that helps people live according to God’s purposes for their life. It starts by acknowledging that everything begins with God.   Because God is the creator of life, He knows what direction our lives should go. Our role, according to Proverbs, is to seek Him and trust Him. Trusting God means having a relationship with Him and believing that He knows what's best for us.   The more we trust in God and submit our lives to Him, the more we wi...
