  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...

STRENGTH DRAINER

STRENGTH DRAINER 

Hebrews 12:1-6 
Devotional:- “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,” Vs 1


    It is important that we recognize the things that drain our strength and chooses never to live our life with them. There are so many of such things that we do not bother to recognize that actually constitute barriers. Though small, but if not destroyed could become mountains. These are anxieties, discouragement, frustration, self-condemnation, lack of self-esteem, heaviness of the heart and guilt. Some are sins to oneself, others are sins to God.

Our scripture today teaches us that they can constitute weight on us that we may not be able to run the way we are supposed to. They can distract our mind and they can ensnare us. It is therefore wisdom that you choose to lay them aside and run to fulfill your destiny. These strength drainers are actually lies of the devil that looks true, so as to steal our strength. That is why the Bible says, the joy of the Lord is our strength (Nehemiah 8:10).

To lay them aside, you must learn to refuse to listen to the sermon of the enemy on your past errors. Confess those sins to God and believe in His faithfulness to forgive (1 John 1:7-9).Refuse to retain the memories of such events. Pick lessons from them and discard them. Any time the enemy brings the memory to your mind check it out by the blood of Jesus (Hebrews 9:13-14). Keep looking unto the faithfulness of Jesus Christ who is able to perfect your success in glory. Please despite those strength, weakening of memories and you will have peace for progress 

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from the strength drainers of life.

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 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.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
