DEFINE PLEASURE  Proverbs 21:12-21 Devotional:- “He who loves pleasure will be a poor man; He who loves wine and oil will not be rich.” (v. 17) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional DEFINE PLEASURE Support Us Proverbs 21:12-21 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com There is nothing wrong with pleasure, but there is a need to define what it means in a way that it will not bring destruction to you. Pleasure to most people means idleness, sleeping, jesting, watching T.V and all sorts of films, extravagant spending at beer parlous and hotels, eating in all the city kitchens and to some it is just travelling all around. The truth is that none of those things are real pleasure. If those things are what you call pleasures, then, no matter how much you have now, poverty and sorrow are on the way. Real pleasure is not that which man creat...

KING DAVID

KING DAVID   

Psalm 119: 97-104
Devotional: -“You, through Your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies; For they are ever with me.” (v.98)


    David was a man in the Bible who manifested great wisdom of God in his time. This man was able to rule successfully in his time by divine wisdom (2 Samuel 14:17). Though, there were no institutions of learning like a school, yet they operated in the wisdom of God by studying the word of God. That is why you should not operate less than that because you have the mind of Christ by the Holy Spirit in you (Matt 12: 42, 1 Cor 2:16). 

David by the wisdom of God conquer Goliath, served in the house of king Saul, escape the wickedness of king Saul, rule over Israel for Forty years and became the greatest king in Israel. In the book of Psalm we read today, there, is the revelation of the secret of the success of David. The secret is the operation of the wisdom of God. 

Many citizens of the kingdom of God with the idea of ruling this nation never attempt it because of one reason or the other. All that you need is divine wisdom and you can access it by the Spirit of God in you. This wisdom grows in you whenever you meditate in the word of God. (Isaiah 11:1-3). That dream is possible, that idea is possible, all you need is wisdom. Refuse to be limited by your current situation. Separate yourself to gain wisdom and God will give you. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, show me the way for my rising.

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...
