  RESIST HIM  James 4:1-10 Devotional:- “Therefore, submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you” (v. 7) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional RESIST HIM Support Us James 4:1-10 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Each believer must carry the understanding that they are equipped to win. The word winning simply indicates there are battles. God did not promise a battle-free life, but a victorious life (1 John 5:4, John 16:33, Deuteronomy 20:1). So, for believers to face challenges is not a big deal. Since our victory is guaranteed. The end of the battle is determined from the beginning.   We only need to know that our battle is not ours, it is of the Lord. That is why Jesus said on the cross, “It is finished” (John 19:30). So you need to know that your challenges now are finished. All you h...

SAVED TO SERVE GOD

SAVED TO SERVE GOD     

2 Timothy 1:8-18
Devotional Verse:-“who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began”(V. 9)



    The falling of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden made man to become servants of sin. A greater percentage of the population of man today is not serving the Lord. Man actually prefers the service of sin because it looks rewarding and brings satisfaction to the flesh. It seems to satisfy immediate desire of man, though with much destructive results and experiences (John 10:10). It is because of the falling of man into sin that makes man slaves to the devil (Romans 6:16). For this reason, God sent Jesus Christ to redeem man from the slavery of the devil (1 John 3:8).


    The word of God says Jesus saved us and calls us with His own calling not according to our works, but according to His own purpose. Man is not saved to live as he likes. This is because everyone on earth is influenced daily by one spirit or the other (Job 32:18). It is the spirit that influences you that you'll serve his interest. People today serve the god of money or god of material wealth. Though, they think they are servants of God. But the bible says, man cannot serve two masters (Matthew 6:24). 
    The reason Christ saves us is that we might stop serving the devil but to serve the living God (Exodus 10:7).
Men today serve the devil by their attitude, relationship, through words, by conduct, even in their mode of dressing. Friend, please know that you are created to serve God, you are not living for your interest. Living without serving God is the reason all things look upside down today. Jesus came to save you from serving the devil so that you will not lack eternal reward. You need to know that our eternal value is determined by who we serve in this world. You are saved to stop serving the interest of devil or self but God. Serve the Lord that you might be your best. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, give me the understanding to serve you alone

“WHO YOU SERVE DETERMINES YOUR END”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). 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 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...
