  BE HUMBLE Proverbs 3:27-35 Devotional:- “Surely He scorns the scornful, But gives grace to the humble” (v.34) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional BE HUMBLE Support Us Proverbs 3:27-35 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com The agenda of the enemy for every human is to make them proud. This is because he knows that the moment anyone is proud, God will begin to withdraw from such. And in his cunny way, the devil has planted the spirit of pride into the lives of many people so that they will not enjoy the grace of God.   Friend, I need to let you know that one of the things you need most in your life is the grace of God. And this can only be available to you when you humble yourself. Humility does not mean stupidity, but only not to think of yourself too highly than you ought (Romans 12:3). It means never t...

DON’T CALL FOR ATTENTION

DON’T CALL FOR ATTENTION

Matthew 6:1-4
Devotional Verse:-“that your charitable deed may be in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly” (Vs. 4)

     


    Everyone loves to be commended and recommended. But the citizens of the kingdom of God allow God to prove them and do not call for attention by their good deeds. Some people call for attention by showing on TV how they give to the needy. If this is done with a motive of blessing others with the awareness of such privilege, then it is great, but it is not meant for show off. 
    In our Scripture today, Jesus tells us that we should be careful of how we do our good deeds to others so as not to miss our reward (Matthew 6:5). Remember that, the Bible says the glory of God should not be given to another (Isaiah 42:8). However, for whatever we do, we will be rewarded when the glory is giving to God. Calling attention to yourself is an act of taking the glory of God.
 
    To let all glory be given to God, we must not do our good works to show off. The moment we are waiting for people to applaud us, then, we are taking God’s glory. No one does that and receive the reward of God. We should not announce to the world the good works we are doing. If we do so, then we have already received our reward. When Jesus heal people, He often tell them not to tell it to anyone (Matthew 8:3-4, Mark 7:35-36). These are examples for us. For all your good works, you will not miss your reward in Jesus name. Peace!  
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to always return all the glory to you. 

 “YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN THE APPLAUSE OF MEN AND THE REWARD OF GOD”

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...
