PROMOTION COMES TO SERVANTS

But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted. Matthew 23:11 Many people want to do great things in the kingdom of God, but most people don’t know that in order for you to do great things you must be willing to do small things. In order for you to great things you have to do seemingly small and insignificant things. For God to trust you with great things you have to be faithful with the least. Servitude leads to success. Servitude leads to greatness. The greatest of all is the servant of all. If you want to be exalted you have to humble yourself. The way up is the way down. And He sat down, called the twelve, and said to them, “If anyone desires to be first, he shall be last and servant of all. Mark 9:35 If you want God to use you, start by serving in your local church and in your home. God uses people who are already doing something. As a matter of fact, when you start servin...

THE MORE YOU GIVE THE MORE YOU RECEIVE

There is one who scatters yet increases more; and there is one who withholds more than is right, but it leads to poverty.  Proverbs 11:24 Generosity leads to prosperity while stinginess leads to poverty. There is no prosperity without generosity. You cannot reap unless you have planted. When you give, you are not losing because you will be blessed in the future. Giving doesn’t decrease people, giving increases people. If you want to grow in the area of finances then be generous. Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. Galatians 6:7 Many people plan how they will spend their money, but few people plan how to give their money. If you want to be a prosperous man, learn to plan how to be generous. Generosity differentiates the successful from the unsuccessful and the rich from the poor. Rich and successful people have this in common, they are generous. But a generous man devices generous things, and by generosity he shall ...

AVOID DEBT

The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender. Proverbs 22:7 Although debt is not sin but debt is not wise. One major reason why debt is not smart is the interest that works against you. That is why God didn’t want His people to charge interest against one another when they lend money to each other. If you lend to any of My people who are poor among you, you shall not be like a moneylender to him; you shall not charge him interest. Exodus 22:25 However, in our world today when you borrow, the lender will charge you interest. When you borrow you become servant to the lender. It is difficult to get ahead financially living in debt. Debt is not smart, because when you do the math, interest accumulated through savings or investments will put you at a much better place financially. Rather than having interest work against you through debt. You can live a debt free life. You can be financially free. It takes discipline and following God’s ways of handl...

THE GOSPEL IS SPREADING

But the word of God grew and multiplied. Acts 12:24 The nature of the kingdom of God is increase and multiplication. If you know how to do ministry, your ministry should grow and multiply. The life that God has given us is an ever increasing life. We go from glory to glory, from faith to faith, from grace to grace. That is the Christian life there is no end to it. For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to order it and establish it with judgment and justice from that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. Isaiah 9:6-7 As a child of God you need to learn how to connect with God and your life will get better and better. The kingdom of God keeps getting better and better, b...

DO THE WORK OF AN EVANGELIST

But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. 1 Timothy 4:5 To do the work of an evangelist does not necessarily mean to go out there and hold crusades, although you can do that, if God is leading you in that direction. To do the work of an evangelist means to win souls. This is what you should do as a Christian, whether you are a minister of the gospel or not. You can win souls in your home, neighborhood, at your workplace, institution of learning, in the bus, at the park, etc. You can win souls practically anywhere. You have to be ready in and out of season to share the Word with others. It goes without saying that to be an effective soul winner you have to be prayerful. You need to pray for the lost. The devil has blinded them to the truth, so you need to pray for them to see. You need to pray for them to receive the gospel. But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds...

GOD LOVES GOOD PEOPLE

And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good? 1 Peter 3:13 If you ever want to please the Lord then be a follower of what is good. If you ever want to be in God’s good books be a follower of what is good. Don’t let anyone deceive you, God loves good people and He favors them. A good man obtains favor from the LORD, but a man of wicked intentions He will condemn. Proverbs 12:3 When you are in God’s good books nothing or anyone will harm you. If you practice sin, you sin against God and you have to answer to Him, but if don’t practice sin, you become a follower of what is good. How you live makes all the difference in the world before God. You can learn to be good person, as much as you can learn to be a bad person. The choice is yours. You can either make yourself a good person or a bad person and you do that by choosing what influences you. Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is...

FEARING GOD

Praise the LORD! Blessed is the man who fears the LORD, who delights greatly in His commandments. Psalm 112:1 Nothing brings blessings like the fear of the Lord. When you fear God, He will bless you. God-fearing people are blessed people. All great men and women of God fear God. God is the Creator of the universe and everything that is in it. His greatness and wisdom is past finding out. He runs the whole universe. He is Omnipresent, Omniscient and Omnipotent. God knows the end from the beginning. There is no one like the Lord. Everyone who fears the Lord is blessed. Blessed is every one who fears the LORD, who walks in His ways. Psalm 128:1 When you fear the Lord, does that mean you are afraid of God? Yes, you are not afraid of Him to run from Him, but you are afraid to sin against Him. When you fear the Lord, you will fear nothing and no one else. And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and b...
