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...

 UNDERSTANDING                 

1 kings 3:5-14
Devotional:- “Therefore give to Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?" (V. 9) NKJV


   Whenever the Holy Spirit gives understanding over any issue, it comes with the energy of the spirit for performance (Acts 4:20). The major reason why some people may be stagnant is lack of understanding of the way of life (Ecclesiastes 10:15). From the day the understanding of your way come to you, it is then that you will start to rise to shine (Isaiah 60:1)
 
   Understanding is an act of God showing His light over your heart to desolve all confusion and let you see rightly. The truth is that the clearer you can see the faster you will move in life. Solomon asked for an understanding heart. That was all he needed to achieve all that he attained on earth. That energy drove him through the journey of destiny. He was unstoppable till he became the best. This was also the experience of Joseph (Genesis 41:38-41). People of understanding are sought after everywhere. Without understanding people will be self-destructive without knowing (Proverbs 21:16)
 
   Friend, God is the giver of an understanding heart. Just like He gave Solomon, Joseph, Daniel etc., He can give you too. That crawling vision can run fast. All you need is an understanding heart. We can contact understanding as we meditate in the word of God daily (Psalms 119:97-100). In your quest to know God more, the Holy Spirit will start to help you through the Spirit of understanding. This will make the spirit of understanding to start to dwell in you (Daniel 9:22). The little I enjoy came like that and it drives me to all I am doing today. Your child can be brilliant. Your business can blossom. All that you need is understanding. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the Spirit of understanding for my way.
 
“UNDERSTANDING WILL ALWAYS MAKE OUTSTANDING”

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...
