RECOGNIZING POTENTIALS  Matthew 9:9-13 Devotional:- “ As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him. ” (V.9) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional RECOGNIZING POTENTIALS Support Us Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Matthew 9:9-13 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of the means to gain opportunities for our greatness is by recognising great potentials that God has placed both within and around us. There are great potentials we have not discovered in ourselves, and we need to discover them. But more, God has located some people with potential around us. These potentials are in some young-hearted people around us. When we encourage them to be discovered and be exploited, we also break into an abunda...

BABIES AND MEN 

1Corinthians 13:8-13
Devotional:-“When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things” (v.11) NKJV

   Everyone including Jesus was born as a baby. But we are not expected to remain a baby for the rest of our lives. To remain a baby is a curse and a trap of the devil. It is funny sometimes to see an adult behaving like baby and this disturbs us. It is therefore important to know what the attitude and attribute of a baby is and that of an adult.

A baby always misplaces priorities. In other words, he does not know what is really important. This means, he can play away with less important things at the expense of important thing. He lacks self-control, He can’t organize himself and discipline himself to walk in his schedule. Adult will have to help in controlling him always. Weak in appetite, emotion, sex, food, leisure and not knowing when to stop.  

A baby has an instant gratification and not able to resist the urge to do what feel good at the moment. A baby is self-centered and incapable of considering others.Adult are people who could consider others alongside with themselves. Adult can exercise self-control and not wait to be rebuked or disgraced. They are patience and can endure in situations. They don’t break down because of pain but use it to build up in strength to overcome. Adult disciplined himself to go through temporary pain for permanent solution. They give consideration to the future as they go through today. They grow in principles of wisdom. Friends, measure your life with this information to know where you are for your growth. Peace.

Prayer: Lord, help me to grow up as an adult.

  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 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.

WAYS ON WATER Exodus 14:10-22 Devotional:- “So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.” (v. 22) NKJV      The enemy's trick in the lives of so many people today is to make them believe that they have come to their crossroads and that the road has ended. So many always agree with this deceptive thought, which leads to their frustrations. The enemy makes them look at situations around them as evidence of his words. So, many people easily agree with the devil and become victims of his deceit.
