WHAT IS OPPORTUNITY?   Ephesians 5:8-21 Devotional:- “making the very most of your time [on earth, recognizing and taking advantage of each opportunity and using it with wisdom and diligence], because the days are [filled with] evil” (V.16) AMP . 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional WHAT IS OPPORTUNITY? Support Us Ephesians 5:8-21 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Opportunities are privileges created around us by God for our advantage. They often come as an answer to our prayers. That is why many believers miss the answers God often gives through opportunities. When we have finished praying, we should just position ourselves rightly to watch out for the opportunities (2 Chronicles 20:17) . When the children of Israel asked for meat, God brought birds around them (Exodus 16:11-13) . They are the ones who still have t...

FOLLOWING HIS STEPS

FOLLOWING HIS STEPS    

1Peter 2:18-25
Devotional: -“For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps” (v.21) NKJV



  Discipleship is following the master. If we are going to be the disciples of Jesus, we must be willing to follow the steps of Jesus. This is what we should do in every aspect of our lives.

The world around us does not know the Lord, so, to make them our example will be totally wrong. That is why, the way of the Lord will be odd to the ungodly. You must not emulate anyone but only those who are followers of Christ. To be able to follow the steps of the Lord, we must learn the details of His ways. This is by daily studying the word of God, to learn His ways. This way, the Holy Spirit will help us realize our wrong paths and we always make the choice of following the master. 

Always ask at any point of decision taken, what will Jesus do in this situation? Often time, the steps of Jesus will be different to the human approach and choices. It may even look unprofitable, but that is what will please the Lord to make us enjoy the blessing of God (Proverbs 14:12; Isaiah 55:8-12). Getting addicted to the steps of the master will put you in continuous blessings of the master (Matthew 6:33). It is time to step out of worldliness into godliness. Peace!

Prayer- Lord, give me the courage to always follow your ways.

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11).

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.
