FAITHFULNESS   Luke 16:1-13 Devotional:- “And if you have not been faithful in what is another man's, who will give you what is your own?” (V. 12) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional FAITHFULNESS Support Us Luke 16:1-13 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Our present generation think unfaithfullness is more profitable than faithfulness. They seem to have forgotten that God is still in control of the affairs of men (Daniel 4:17). True lifting comes from Him. Whoever jumps up will always come down, but if you gradually grow up, you will remain at the top (Psalm 25:6–7). All attempts to climb through unfaithfulness are nothing but self-deceit, and the falling shall be great, Jesus says. Before your own possession can be handed over to you, you must be faithful in that which belongs to another, if not, the la...

SURRENDER TO GOD

SURRENDER TO GOD             

Romans 12:1-8
Devotional:-“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him” (V. 1) NLT



    Praises is an act of surrendering to God. When people surrender in battle, they hands up. That is why we lift up our hands when we are praising God. It's a pity people do that today without knowing the meaning neither do they mean that (Psalms 63:4; 134:2). Lifting up of hands means to surrender to an authority recognized as superior.


    The word of God asks us to surrender our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God. The word of God says this is the true way to worship God (Romans 12:1)NLT. So, it means worship and praises will not be sincere if we don't first surrender. People who worship without surrendering are known as pretenders. Their heart is not true. Their intention is corrupt (Mark 7:6). But this is what most people do often. They lift up hands in the place of worship but they disobey God at will.

    Friend, the time has come to make up your mind to surrender to God. Give yourself sincerely as a living sacrifice to God. This means you have to be dead to self, but alive to God (Romans 6:1-6). Self is the mentality we have grown up with in our culture and tradition that is contrary to the will of God (Romans 12:2). The Bible says, we should unlearn those things. To be dead to self means to be separated from the lifestyle that is contrary to the word of God. This is what it means to be praiseful. This is what it means to be obedience to God and live in righteousness. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to truly surrender to you

“LIVING IN OBEDIENCE IS THE SIGN OF TRUE SURRENDER”

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.

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.
