  TAKE NO OFFENCE Luke 7:18-30 Devotional:- “And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me” (v.23) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional TAKE NO OFFENCE Support Us Luke 7:18-30 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Sometimes, men easily get offended. That is, they get annoyed and refuse to relate to one another. Many of us have some people we don’t greet now on this account. Some people have taken offence at their parents and relations, and they refused to relate to them. The truth is that if you know the harm you are doing to yourself by so doing, you will give up on this.   In the scripture we read today, John the Baptist was not happy because Jesus did not come to rescue him from prison, and he took offence at Christ. He sent messengers to Jesus to ask if He was the Christ or not. This question see...

LET GO

LET GO   

Ephesians 4: 17-24
Devotional:-“that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts” (v.22) NKJV


  A strong factor of growth is that you have to let go your weaknesses, habit or attitude of unrighteousness. Sometime, we don’t realize that we are holding unto our old nature. We do this when we see it as what we cannot grow out of or do without. 

The word of God told us bluntly that we have to put off the old nature and put on the new man. You can only grow when you allow the weaknesses or the old you to go. Don’t hold on to it. To put off or let go is a conscious effort on our side as a man. This is the act of consciously disallowing our heart from thinking or dwelling on the weak and sinful way. It is a life time battle but the word of God promised us victory in Christ. 

To put off or let go, you must labour to change your thinking pattern over your old nature and take the mindset of the word of God. To achieve this, you must starve to death the sinful nature or weaknesses (Colossians 3:5). This is by stopping to read ungodly information, watch or be among people who encourages you to go that way (Romans 8:14). Identify what is feeding or triggering the attitude and consciously denying yourself of it. To put on the new man is to feed the new nature with the word of God and fellowship that encourages you to live well. You will surely grow. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, strengthens me to say no to ungodliness. 

"STARVE YOUR WEAK NATURE AND FEED YOUR NEW NATURE"
