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...

CONCEPTION

Genesis 21:1-7
Devotional:- “For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him” (v. 2)


    Faith is the ability to conceive. It is by faith that a woman can receive the strength to conceive (Hebrews 11:11). Some times because some things have become a regular experience, we tend to forget the fact that there is a process to it. That is why you must not allow science to just explain some things that can take away the aspect of God. That way, we tend to think they just happened, so, when they fail we get confused.

The scripture we read today tells us that Sarah conceived in her old age of 90 years, this was simply an act of faith (Hebrews 11:11). And by faith anyone can conceive. The process was that she received a word spoken by the angel of God to her and unconsciously she started expecting. No one else would have spoken to her in such way at her age and expect her to agree. It will look wrong naturally but when God speaks and we believe, the case is settled (Mark 9:23). Faith starts from the word of God (Romans 10:17). Then, our believe in the word set our spirit, soul and body in agreement with the word and something in us start expecting. The word of God is the seed of faith, but when there is doubt, we destroy the seed (Mark 11:24). 

Friend, God’s word commands you to conceive from today (Genesis 1:28). Take this word personal. Let your spirit, emotion and feeling accept it. Do you think He that creates the world by His word will speak to your life and will fail? This time next year, you will be with your baby (2 Chronicles 20:20). Your case is settled in Jesus name. Congratulations! 

Prayer: Lord, I receive your word today and conceive in Jesus name.

“IF YOU CAN SET YOUR THINKING ACCORDINGLY, IT IS DONE”

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...
