DEFINE PLEASURE  Proverbs 21:12-21 Devotional:- “He who loves pleasure will be a poor man; He who loves wine and oil will not be rich.” (v. 17) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional DEFINE PLEASURE Support Us Proverbs 21:12-21 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com There is nothing wrong with pleasure, but there is a need to define what it means in a way that it will not bring destruction to you. Pleasure to most people means idleness, sleeping, jesting, watching T.V and all sorts of films, extravagant spending at beer parlous and hotels, eating in all the city kitchens and to some it is just travelling all around. The truth is that none of those things are real pleasure. If those things are what you call pleasures, then, no matter how much you have now, poverty and sorrow are on the way. Real pleasure is not that which man creat...

TRUST IN GOD​​

Jeremiah 17:1-10
Devotional-"Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, And whose hope is the LORD”  (V. 7)



   It's important we understand the power of trusting the Lord in helping us to create our desire in this world. So many people do not bother to grow the wisdom of trusting in the Lord. Many have concluded that trusting in the Lord does not work. Instead of learning the principle, they give up on God. They have no patience to let their prayers work out. They expect God to work at their pace. They always turn to men instead of turning to God. Friend, what will happen the day your friends can't meet your need and you have not train yourself to trust in God? It will really be bad.

   Trusting God helps you create solution in an honorable way. It helps you to be self sufficient and make you a blessing and not a burden. Often, God will use people when you trust Him but not at your manipulation (Proverbs 21:1). To trust in God is to remove your hope and expectation from men and put it in God (Jeremiah 17:5). Call on Him when you have needs and learn to pray till He direct you (John 2:5; Proverbs 3:5-6; Jeremiah 33:3). When you trust in Him only, you will be patience to receive an answer from Him. He will guide you to solution.

    Friend, there will always be limitations on the way of those who put man first, who think “that man and that man” instead of God. See, God has enough resources to take care of all human needs. When He directs you to men, you are sure of His flow. The giver will be happy and be bless and the receiver will be joyful. This is win-win case without shame. God will give you light. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to always trust in you.

“TRUST IN GOD WILL CREATE HELP WITHOUT SHAME”

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.

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” (V. 17) NLT  God has a purpose behind every problem. God depends more on circumstances to grow our character than reading the Bible; this is because we have challenging circumstances twenty four seven. The word of God made us to see challenges in our life as normal (1 Peter 4:18). Your deepest expression of worship is mostly in the darkest days. It is during suffering that we learn to pray our most authentic, heart-felt and honest prayers to God (James 5:16). God would have kept Jeremiah from the throne to the pit, Joseph from been thrown into the jail, Paul from been shipwrecked or the three Hebrew from been thrown into the fire but he left those problems to himself. You will never know that God is all you need until God is all you have.  Everything that happens to you has spir...
