BEGIN TO RULE Psalms 110:1-7 Devotional:- “The LORD shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies!” (v.2) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional BEGIN TO RULE Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Psalm 110:1-7 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com   Believers need to know that God has given us the right to rule and succeed. The mandate of our rulership is given to us through our Lord Jesus Christ (Luke 10:19). Now, we can succeed, but we also need to know the truth that our enemies are there in the world, and God is not willing to remove the devil because it is not in God’s agenda to do that now. Therefore, believers are supposed to rule in the midst of their enemies.   This simply means you are to succeed in the midst of your enemies no matter what. No matter their number and their power, He that is in you is more...

THE BLESSING OF PERSECUTION

THE BLESSING OF PERSECUTION           

John 15:18-25
Devotional Verse:-“Remember the word that I said to you,'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will keep yours also” (Vs. 20)

 


    Jesus teaches us that the blessings of the Lord are for those who go through persecution for righteousness sake (Matt. 5:10-12). It is almost impossible for anyone to live a godly life in the world without been persecuted. Jesus said that if He was persecuted, then we will also be persecuted.
 
    Persecution is a reaction orchestrated by darkness because you are the light of the world. In this world, people of no light always stand against the people in the light. The moment you sincerely give your life to Christ, your life will become different. Your decisions and actions will always be geared towards pleasing God. Since the world is known for the opposite, you will definitely stand out as been odd. Usually, people are criticized for doing what is wrong but in this case, you will be persecuted for doing the will of God.
 
    Don’t feel odd whenever you are persecuted, because Jesus has said that great is your reward in heaven (Matt. 5:12). To go through the period of persecution successfully, ensure that you stay close to the fellowship of brethren where you are recognized (Act 4:23). Refuse to be discouraged. Don’t be offended in God (Matthew 11:6). The Lord will see you through and make your story a blessing to your world. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, uphold me in times of persecution
 
“PERSECUTION IN RIGHTEOUSNESS IS AN EVIDENCE OF YOUR RIGHT STANDING WITH GOD”

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.

COURAGE

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.
