SAVED   Ephesians 2:1-10 Devotional:- “ For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, ” (V.8) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SAVED Support Us Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Ephesians 2:1-10 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Believers should come to full awareness that to be saved is a thing of great privilege. Sometimes in our ignorance we seem not to understand the importance and the value of this. A man who is rescued from great destruction will never forget the privilege given to him. In the scripture we read today, God’s word says By grace we are saved. This means that it was not by personal merit or qualification. But the fact remains that now we have been saved by the grace of God out of the destruction of the devil i...

EMPTY PROMISES

EMPTY PROMISES        

Matthew 5:23-37
Devotional Verse:- “But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is God's throne” (Vs. 34).

     Many people make promises but lack the ability to fulfill them. Some promises had better not be put to heart because the maker might fail to take the responsibility of fulfilling them. Making promises without fulfilling them should not be the lifestyle of any citizen of the kingdom of God (Eccl 5:5).


     In today’s Scripture, Jesus teaches us to stop making empty promises; insisting that there is no need to swear any oath as a child of God (Deuteronomy 23:22). The Bible says that we must let our ‘yes be yes’ and our ‘no be no’ (Matthew 5:37). Jesus also said that making empty promises is the practice of the evil one which is ungodly.
 
    Whenever we are faced with legal issues that demand swearing with the Bible, God expects us to say what we mean and mean what we say. Don’t promise what you can’t do because it will put you in bond age (Proverbs 22:26-27). You are not living to please anyone but God (1 Thessalonians 2:4). Always be sincere with yourself. It is only by doing this that you will find peace and integrity. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me not to just swear but to always say the truth 
 
“MAKING EMPTY PROMISES IS AN UNGODLY ACT”.

DOMINION

  DOMINION   Psalms 8:1-9 Devotional:- “You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet” (V. 6) NKJV      At creation, man was given dominion over all that God created. This office was at that time a terrifying one for other creatures and even the devil. (Psalms 8.6; Psalms 110:1-3). It was this office that the devil was after that he had to deceive man and steal. You will observe that man was the last creature of God (Genesis 1:26). Yet he was made to have dominion over all that existed before him. The devil saw this as partiality on the side of God. He did not know that though man was the last creation yet the finest. The man was finally created to be in charge of all creation.

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.
