TAKE THE LOWLY PLACE  Luke 14:7-14 Devotional:- But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes he may say to you, 'Friend, go up higher.' Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you. (V. 10) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional TAKE THE LOWLY PLACE Support Us Luke 14:7-14 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com No one wants to be a floor member. But do you know that honour is better than shame? When some people are invited to occasion, oftentimes think they are so important and expecting too much honour only to earn shame in return. When you are invited to any occasion, dress well but humble yourself; you are not to be the most important. Don’t begin to think you are the only person there. Be willing to sit in the low place.

UNTO THE LORD

UNTO THE LORD         

Colossians 3:18-25
Devotional Verse: -“And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men” (V. 23)


   Service is of the Lord and can only be rewarded by the Lord. The term service in our world connotes weakness and defeat. But service in God’s term is the route to greatness. That is why service cannot be done in a worldly way. We need to do it in the kingdom pattern and have this mindset. 
 
   The Bible says, our service should be unto the Lord and not unto men. This means, we should not serve to please men but to please God who wired us and sent us. If anyone always wants to please people with his service, it will not be appreciated and people could totally discourage you. Sometimes, there is no one to encourage your services. But when your focus of service is unto the Lord, you will no more over expect from men and you will no longer be discouraged.
 
   Friend, looking at men to serve the Lord will always be frustrating. When it comes to service, God is your rewarder. Don't mind the mockery of men. Don't mind the statement of people. Focus your service on the Lord. Only make sure you are making profit. Soon, your promotion will come. (Psalms 45:6-7). Don't join the ungodly attitude in service. Your promotion will soon come. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me a humble heart to serve in your house

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.
