LOOKING INWARD   Luke 15:11-24 “ But when he came to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! ” (V.17) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional LOOKING INWARDS Support Us Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Luke 15:11-24 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Those who will walk into greatness as the Lord is promising in this season are people who will look inward rather than look outward. Looking inward has to do with sitting down to see what you can work out that will make men be on the lookout for you. Men who will take responsibility to think and think through their challenges. Men who believe in using what God has packaged in them to deliver themselves. There is a good example in the parable of the lost son. This young ma...

RELIGIOUS PRIDE

RELIGIOUS PRIDE                 

Luke 18:9-14
Devotional Verse:- “I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted."  (Vs. 14)

    In the kingdom of God, there is no room for pride (James 4:6). This is because there is nothing we have that is not given to us by the Lord (John 3:27). Everything in God comes to us by grace (Ephesians 2:8). Pride is not an attitude of any mature believer. The Bible says that God resists the proud and gives more grace to the humble (James 4:6). Which means proud people will disconnect themselves from God.
     The Scripture tells us about the parable of two men who went to pray in the temple. The first man was proud of his religious titles and qualifications. He was proud of his righteousness before God. The second man was humble to confess his weaknesses and limitations. Jesus said that the second man who was humble, was justified by the Lord.
 
     Friend, be careful about going before God with your qualifications or your work for His kingdom. This may hinder your prayers. The blessings of this kingdom is reserved for the humble (Matthew 5:3-5). Promotion only comes to people in this kingdom when they are humble (Luke 14:11). Don't join people who are going down. There is nothing in this world that qualifies anyone to be proud (1 Peter 5:6). Humble yourself and you will soon be at the top. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, deliver me from the spirit of pride
 
“FROM THE DAY YOU START TO HUMBLE YOURSELF, GRACE FOR GROWTH WILL START TO FLOW IN YOU”
