  ENTRANCE OF WISDOM    Proverbs 9:1-12 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” (V. 10) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional ENTRANCE OF WISDOM Support Us Proverbs 9:1-12 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com No one can enter into true wisdom without God. The Bible says, “The fear of the Lord begins wisdom…” May I then say that you can’t experience true wisdom but by recognising God and living your life in fear of his sovereignty.   The fear of God does not mean running away from God in trembling; it rather means reverencing and honouring His word. Knowing fully well that whatever you will ever need in life is in His hand, and without him you cannot be anything meaningful in life (Isaiah 66: 2). If you don’t fear God, your heart will no...

HIGHER RIGHTEOUSNESS

HIGHER RIGHTEOUSNESS           

Matthew 5:17-19
Devotional Verse:-“Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven” (Vs. 19)

   

    To morally religious-minded people, righteousness is standing right in the view of others who can give good comments about them. They like to be men pleasers. Many people like good comments and recommendations from people, even though they know that most human praise is always not totally true but always exaggerated.     Jesus said that our lifestyles as citizens of the kingdom of God should be beyond human righteousness for us to be partakers of the kingdom of heaven. He also said that He has come to fulfill the Scripture and not to please people. So, obedience to God should be our primary lifestyle as kingdom citizens (Matt. 7:21).
 
    Every part of the Scripture is to be obeyed in the light of this because whatever is commanded in the Old Testament and established in the New Testament is binding on us. The ones we are not expected to obey are the ones in the Old Testament which are not established in the New Testament since we are no more under the law but under grace. Friend, our righteousness should be true to the heart as we do the will of God from the heart. The Holy Spirit is always present to help us. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to be obedient to all your instructions.
 
“HE WHO WALKS IN OBEDIENCE IS WALKING IN WISDOM”.

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.

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.
