HONOUR YOUR PARENTS Ephesians 6:1-4 Devotional:- "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with promise (V. 2) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional HONOURING YOUR PARENTS Support Us Ephesians 6:1-4 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com At some stage in life, there is a tendency to start forgetting our parents: to pay attention to our own lives and new family. But without our parents, you would not have come into being at all, so the Bible demands that they should never be forgotten. Some people grew up to turn their parents into their personal enemy; most women wouldn’t like attention to be given to their in-laws. When the Lord blesses some people, they now see their parents as not fit to come into their homes for visitation. These are tricks of the devil to cheat us and deceive us. It is our covenant...

LOVE HIM SUPREMELY

LOVE HIM SUPREMELY           

Matthew 22:34-40
Devotional -“Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'”’ (V. 37)



    For us to be able to worship God effectively demands that we love Him supremely. To love God supremely means, He is higher than all men and all things in your life. Praise goes beyond singing or playing instruments. It goes beyond dancing and clapping of hands. It spring right from our heart. So, the state of our heart is so vital, if our praises will be acceptable to God. That is why Jesus said, we must worship God in spirit and truth (John 4:24).

    The word of God says, we should love God with all our heart, our soul and with our entire mind. Then, we are to love our neighbor as ourselves. God’s love must be vertical and that of man horizontal. So, the love of God in our heart must be different from the dimension at which we love men. It must be far greater than it all. To love Him supremely means you are willing to drop human offer to obey and praise Him. 

     The level we place God in our heart determines the state of our heart in worship. Our praises must be from a heart of true love. We are commanded to love Him and allow His love to determine our thinking, our decisions and our actions. This is the true act of praises. In this, our praises can be strong enough to bring God into our situations. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, plant the seed of your love in my heart.

“LOVE IS THE FOUNDATION FOR TRUE WORSHIP”

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.
