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...

KINGDOM OF POWER

KINGDOM OF POWER           

Read: I Corinthians 4:17-21
For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power. (Vs. 20)


    Every believer must know that the kingdom of God is characterized with power. It is important that you get used to power as a child of God. As a child of God, you must not be a victim of the devil who is the enemy of God and man. Being involved in a religion makes a man a victim. This is because religion is always void of the manifestation of power (Colossians 2:23).
 
    Power is the demonstration as well as the manifestation of the working strength of God. This working strength of God is the mysteries of God, which when demonstrated in understanding are able to put the devil under a check. The devil cannot contend with the power of God because it is a done deal. It is sealed and already perfected by Jesus on the cross.
 
    That is why as a child of God you must not be ignorant of your right over the power of the enemy. If the Spirit of God is in you, then you should get angry and pray for people whenever you see them sick or living under any form of affliction. The reason is that sickness and affliction are the manifestations of the devil. Get used to laying hands on the sick and they will be healed (Mark. 16:17-18). Get used to issuing commands in the name of Jesus and the devil will flee from you (James 4:7; I Peter 5:9). Don’t ever be in doubt or fear. (2 Tim 1:7; James 1:6-7). As you do this, you will see the power of God being demonstrated through your life on daily basis. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, baptize me with your power.
 
“IT IS EITHER THE DEVIL FLEES FROM YOU OR YOU FLEE FROM HIM. CHOOSE WHAT YOU WANT”

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

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...
