HUMILITY   Proverb 16: 10-19 Devotional:- “Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.” (V. 18) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional HUMILITY Support Us Proverb 16: 10-19 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Humility is given birth to by wisdom. It is an act of seeing oneself as not higher than others. Pride is the feeling of superiority and arrogance. These two are products of the mind. Someone who sees himself already at the top or already at the climax is proud. While a humble person feels he is yet to get to his best and so humbles himself to keep moving on.   Humility will help you to keep learning. It will help the state of your mind to be rightly positioned for God’s lifting (James 4:10). It helps your words to be words that can earn you favours before God and man. It wi...

PURPOSE OF DISCIPLESHIP

PURPOSE OF DISCIPLESHIP      

Luke 14: 25-27
Devotional:-"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” (v.26) NKJV

      Discipleship is an important aspect of our Christian life, without which we cannot really call anyone a child of God. That is why, we need to understand the purpose of discipleship. Today, so many people who come to church can also be found in beer parlors and harlot houses. This is because they were not discipled for Christ. 

     When Jesus began His ministry, the first set of people He was out to get were people that will be His disciples (Mark 3:14) It was the twelve, the seventy and the one hundred and twenty that stood for Him when He ascended to heaven. It is Christ’s disciples that are labouring to share the gospel all over the world today. 
 
    Jesus raised disciples that men and God can be truly connected in love (Luke 14: 26). He raised His disciples so that man can represent God on the earth (John 20:21). If there is no discipleship, there will be no spiritual maturity. It is discipleship that makes man love God not withstanding their challenges. It is discipleship that makes us endure in patience till our miracles come (2 Timothy 2:3). It is discipleship that make us learn from Christ and look like Him (Matthew 10:25). The weaknesses in the church today are basically because we have stopped making disciples. It is therefore, important that you commit yourself to growing like Jesus to become His disciple. Take this responsibility for Christ and you will be like Him indeed. Peace.
 
Prayer: Lord, make me a true disciple of Christ.

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.

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.
