IT IS BY FORCE  Matthew 11:2-14 Devotional:- “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.” (v. 12) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional IT IS BY FORCE Support Us Matthew 11:2-14 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Children of God need to wake up to the fact that the kingdom of God is forceful. And any one that operate in it must also be forceful. Victory and success in the kingdom of God do not answer to the weak and the fearful. It is for bold and confident people. That is why God told Joshua to be bold and be courageous for him to be able to fulfill his destiny (Joshua 1:6-9).   The scripture we read today says, the kingdom is forceful and forceful men lay hold of it. This is simply an expression of the language of faith that...

BEARING FRUITS

BEARING FRUITS           

Read: John 15:1-8
I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. (Vs.5)


    There are many parables through which Jesus illustrates what the kingdom of God is. These parables have to do with sowing of seeds (Mark 4:27, Luke 8:5). From these, we are already informed that there would be fruits.
Jesus says “I have sent you to bear fruits” (John 15:16). He said that anyone who does not bear fruits shall be cut away (John 15:2). Whoever does not bear fruits shall lose the kingdom of God (Mark 21:43). That is why you and I must be fruit-bearing Christians.
 
    The fruits of this kingdom are fruits of repentance unto God (Matthew 3:8). They are fruits of righteousness (Matthew 7:20). The fruits are fruits of the Holy Spirit (Gal. 5: 22-23) which are all fruits of godliness and wisdom of God. They also involve fruits of restful service in the house of God and fruits of soul winning (Matthew 24:45-46).
 
    To bear these fruits, we must abide in Christ by always being conscious of His presence with us and doing His will (John 15:5). We will be able to bear fruits by acknowledging Him for divine direction and obedience (Prov. 3:5-6). We will be able to bear these fruits when we always deny ourselves to minister the gospel to others and bring them to Christ. A fruit-bearing Christian will always bring glory to God. He will always enjoy grace for more in his lifetime. Also, he will have his prayers answered. Receive grace to bear fruits in Jesus’ name.
 
Prayer: Lord, make me a fruitful Christian.
 
“AS A ROYAL SEED, FRUITFULNESS IS INEVITABLE"

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

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.
