RULING YOURSELF  Proverbs 25:21-28 Devotional:- “Whoever has no rule over his own spirit is like a city broken down, without walls.” (v. 28) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional RULING YOURSELF Support Us Proverbs 25:21-28 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com   I need to let you know that one of the enemies you must overcome in life is yourself. If not, you cannot successfully rule over anyone in this world. This is enough weapon in the hand of the enemy to keep disqualifying some people from getting to their place of destiny in life.   To rule yourself means to be the one in control of your life. If other people still have to control you before you do well, it means you are a slave in your mind. And that is not the will of God for you. This also means the ability to determine to do what you should do and k...

THE POOR IN SPIRIT

THE POOR IN SPIRIT       

Read: Luke 6:20-23
Then He lifted up His eyes toward His disciples, and said: “Blessed are you poor, For yours is the kingdom of God. (Vs. 20)

     This teachings of Jesus are referred to as the beatitudes which mean the blessings. Jesus talked about being poor in the spirit. Jesus used these teachings to enlighten us on the blessings of the kingdom of God. It looks quite different from the factors of human blessings because it is not of the kingdom of men.

 
    To be poor in the spirit is to be meek, teachable and correctable. It is to live a life that is not over attached to anything. This is a great virtue in the sight of God (I Peter 3:4). It means, to feel empty and unsatisfied with God. It is the zeal of wanting more of God. Such people will get deeper and deeper with God.
 
    Jesus said that it is only people who are poor in the spirit that will have the kingdom of God. This is a possessive language which means that they will be in control in the kingdom of God. They will be people of authority in the kingdom of God. They will speak and the angels of God will carry out their requests and instructions (Isaiah 66:2). They will be honorable both in heaven and on earth. They will not lose anything in this world and will still have abundance in eternity. Wake up and receive. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to know you more and better.
 
“HE WHO KEEP KNEELING BEFORE GOD, WILL STAND TALL AMONG MEN”

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...
