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...

FAITHFULNESS       

Matthew 24:45-51
Devotional Verse: -"Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season” (V.45)



   As steward of Christ, it is required that we are faithful in all our services (1 Corinthians 4:1-2). In rendering a service to God, faithfulness to God is not replaceable. Unfaithfulness is considered an act of wickedness in the word of God. That is why each of us must understand what it is to be faithful. To be faithful is to remain firm in your belief in someone. It is to have unwavering commitment to your assignment with a person or an organization.
 
   The word of God described faithful servants to be the one that his master has committed a task to his hand and he will remain committed to the work. The reason it will be possible to remain committed to serve to the end is because, you believe in the success of the task. It is because you can see the future result of the work. Faithful servants always stay strong to complete their work, fulfill their responsibilities, keep their promises and stay committed to the end. They are trust worthy and dependable. 
 
   Friend, it is important you develop the attitude of faithfulness in your service to God either in the house of the Lord or in your office. Remember that, only the faithful servants will be rewarded and be promoted (Matthew 25:21). God watches our faithfulness to qualify us for true riches (Luke 16:11-12). God also check our faithfulness to service as what qualifies us for our own blessing. Always put in your best to be faithful in all you do. You should be doing service as if it is your thing. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me a faithful heart in service

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...
