EATING AND DRINKING Ecclesiastes 10:11-20 Devotional:- “Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, And your princes feast at the proper time for strength and not for drunkenness!” (v. 17) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional EATING AND DRINKING Support Us Ecclesiastes 10:11-20 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com It is of great importance that man should programme his thinking system for security and purpose. Many of us have not been able to define what we are actually here to do and face it. Many people who lack understanding and have made themselves animals awaiting their day to be slaughtered. One of our mentalities that needs to be changed is the purpose of food.   The scripture we read today gave us a beautiful knowledge of food. Why do we need to eat? The scripture spelt it out that it...

FOLLOWING CHRIST

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.
 
    In the Scripture today, Jesus gave us the factor of becoming His disciples. It is by loving Him more than ourselves and above every other person. In other words, Jesus must become King over your life. This means no one else but Jesus has the right to direct the affairs of your life. This does not mean that Jesus is trying to gain monopoly over your life but it is because He is the only way to God, the truth and life is in Him (John 14:6). Anyone else can lead you out of God.
 
    Friend, know from today that,  just going to church does not make you a follower of Christ. Followers of Christ acknowledge and obey Christ in all that they do (John 15:14, Prov. 3:5-6, Matthew 7:20-21). They don’t go anywhere they like or do whatever they like but they stick to whatever the King wants. Make up your mind to be a true follower of Christ and your story will change to reflect the glory of God. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to totally release my heart unto you.
 
“DISCIPLES OF JESUS ARE FOLLOWERS 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...
