  GODS John 10:31-39  Devotional:- “If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken)” (v. 35) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional GODS Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  John 10:31-39 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Sometimes men become too religious and then find it difficult to believe the word of God. This is because they have a particular mode in their mind. They think God has to fit into their mindset. A lot of the time, this mode is not established by the word of God but by their experience. That is why I tell people often, faith based on experience and not the word of God is fake. Whatever experience that pulls down the word of God is a stronghold of the devil that must be pulled down. Do you know that the word of God declares man as the god of this world and all the power in it...

PRAYER AND FASTING

PRAYER AND FASTING

Matthew 6:16-18
Devotional Verse:- "Moreover, when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance. For they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward” (Vs. 16)

 


    Fasting is an act of depriving the flesh of the pleasure of foods and other activities for the purpose of seeking God. Fasting helps us to concentrate, be spiritually alert, sensitive and gives quality attention on God in times of prayers. It also gives us access to deep revelations of God. 
 
    As good as fasting is, it should not be turned into a religious ritual as some people make it. Fasting should not be a means of bribing God after we have sinned because no one can bribe God. It should also not to be taken as the giver of God’s power. In fasting, God needs our total submission to His will and wisdom (Isa. 58:6-8). While fasting, it is unnecessary to disfigure yourself by leaving your hair uncombed or going about frown your face. If you have the privilege of fasting, it is important that you separate yourself in a quiet place to pray instead of going about and making people greet you by asking, “Hope all is well” or “How is the fast?” 
 
    If you allow all these, then it means you have missed the essence of the fasting. Fasting without praying is hunger strike. You need the grace to fast for a deep and rewarding fellowship with God, so that your story will change for good. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, strengthen me for a deep fellowship with you regularly.

“FASTING SHOULD SPEED UP OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD”.

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.

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
