(V. 17) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional PITY THE POOR Support Us Proverbs 19:15-20 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Most people on earth have never risen from the poor level of life to a greater level, but no sooner man get engrafted into a level higher than the poor, he forgets his past and never remembers the poor. Many even make the mistake of postponing when they shall remember the poor until they get very rich. They have forgotten that God is the giver of all riches, and his purpose in giving us is to help others. God is simply looking for someone who can be a channel of blessing to the poor.

SALT AND LIGHT

SALT AND LIGHT          

Matthew 5:13-16
Devotional Verse:- "You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men” (Vs. 13).

 


    Salt has the characteristics of sweetening, preserving and cleansing just like light has the nature of illuminating, revealing and dominating darkness. In His teachings, Jesus likened believers to salt and light. These are the two powerful combinations that ordained every child of God to stand out and be a blessing wherever they are.
    Like the salt, our lifestyles should bring sweetness to every relationship and community we find ourselves. This can be done if we remain in the peace and joy of God wherever we are (Philip. 4:4-5). Also, like salt preserves, we should be the sustainer of all good things around us by enduring with others and standing by faith in the word of God (Hebrews 1:3). To cleanse like salt does, we should be the cleansing agent wherever we are either in the house or office. This is by been an example of righteousness in all situation and others can emulate us for good.
 
    To illuminate as light, we are expected to bring understanding of wisdom and truth everywhere, so that people can see rightly. Through the light in us, we should prevail over darkness (John 1:5). This includes living by faith to overcome in all situations (1 John 5:4). Every one of us should take time to inculcate these characteristics into our lives so that it can become our lifestyle. In doing this, you will find the grace to reflect the glory of God (1 Peter 2:9). Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, make me a sweetening agent and a light everywhere.
 
“BE THE SALT AND LIGHT EVERYONE NEEDS!”

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.
