RECOGNIZING POTENTIALS  Matthew 9:9-13 Devotional:- “ As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him. ” (V.9) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional RECOGNIZING POTENTIALS Support Us Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Matthew 9:9-13 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of the means to gain opportunities for our greatness is by recognising great potentials that God has placed both within and around us. There are great potentials we have not discovered in ourselves, and we need to discover them. But more, God has located some people with potential around us. These potentials are in some young-hearted people around us. When we encourage them to be discovered and be exploited, we also break into an abunda...

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”.

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

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.

WAYS ON WATER Exodus 14:10-22 Devotional:- “So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.” (v. 22) NKJV      The enemy's trick in the lives of so many people today is to make them believe that they have come to their crossroads and that the road has ended. So many always agree with this deceptive thought, which leads to their frustrations. The enemy makes them look at situations around them as evidence of his words. So, many people easily agree with the devil and become victims of his deceit.
