  BLAME GAME  Genesis 3:8-13 Devotional:- “And He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?"" (v.11) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional BLAME GAME Support Us Genesis 3:8-13 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com   One of the strongest weapons the enemy is using to destroy many people today is the habit of blaming others for their failures. Human, by nature, doesn’t often want to be blamed but always likes to blame others or circumstances of their shortcomings. But I would like you to realise the terrible effect of the blame game in your life.   In the scripture we read today, Adam and Eve were simply playing the blame game. But do you know that it did not deliver them from the judgment of God? Neither will this game deliver...

SELF DENIAL

SELF DENIAL     

Matthew 16:24-28
Devotional: -“Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me” (v.24) NKJV


    An important factor in the process of discipleship is that, you must deny yourself to be able to follow Jesus. Self, is the major hindrance to our walking with God. By self, I mean the flesh, this is the human nature in us. This human nature has been cultured into sinful and selfish life. The flesh does not want to please God (Romans 8:5-8). So, those who are ruled by the desires of their flesh cannot please God.

`If anyone want to be a disciple of Jesus, he/she must deny the flesh to satisfy God. Our body is made up to help us relate with the physical world, but we must put it under control, so that, it does not send us to hell (1 Corinthians 9:27). The flesh is the five senses that always give us information of the things of the world. 

`Every attempt you made to please God; your human nature will not support it. So, you need to deny it by not allowing it control you against God, but yielding to the Holy Spirit and the word of God. It is then you can begin to grow into the likeness of Christ. Your ability to say No to the flesh and Yes to God is a good step towards maturity. Then, His beauty shall be seen on you. Peace!

Prayer - Lord, give me the enablement to yield to you always.

“EVERY MAN IS EITHER YIELDING TO GOD OR TO THE FLESH”

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.

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” (V. 17) NLT  God has a purpose behind every problem. God depends more on circumstances to grow our character than reading the Bible; this is because we have challenging circumstances twenty four seven. The word of God made us to see challenges in our life as normal (1 Peter 4:18). Your deepest expression of worship is mostly in the darkest days. It is during suffering that we learn to pray our most authentic, heart-felt and honest prayers to God (James 5:16). God would have kept Jeremiah from the throne to the pit, Joseph from been thrown into the jail, Paul from been shipwrecked or the three Hebrew from been thrown into the fire but he left those problems to himself. You will never know that God is all you need until God is all you have.  Everything that happens to you has spir...
