IT IS BY FORCE  Matthew 11:2-14 Devotional:- “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.” (v. 12) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional IT IS BY FORCE Support Us Matthew 11:2-14 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Children of God need to wake up to the fact that the kingdom of God is forceful. And any one that operate in it must also be forceful. Victory and success in the kingdom of God do not answer to the weak and the fearful. It is for bold and confident people. That is why God told Joshua to be bold and be courageous for him to be able to fulfill his destiny (Joshua 1:6-9).   The scripture we read today says, the kingdom is forceful and forceful men lay hold of it. This is simply an expression of the language of faith that...

JUSTIFICATION

JUSTIFICATION

Romans 2:1-15
Dev:- for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; (v.13)


    Every kingdom citizen must seek to be justified before the Lord. To be justified is to be made right before God. It is only those who are made right with God that can be right before God. If anyone is not right before God, he/she cannot see God. This is the important of justification.

In the Old Testament the children of Israel were justified by obeying the law. And because no one could perfectly obey the law, no one could be justified by the law (Galatians 3:11). If you obey nine out of ten, you cannot be justified and it therefore made it difficult to attain.

The New Testament offers man justification by faith without the law (Romans 3:28). It is by faith in the finished work of the cross. We believe that Jesus died and rose for us. In this we believe if we sin the blood of Jesus cleanses us (1 John 1:7-9). We are justified before God as we accept forgiveness of our sins by our faith on the work of the cross. By this we have peace with God (Romans 5:1). We don't have to go about feeling guilty of sin when we have repented (turn away) from them. As we repent and forsake sin, we receive forgiveness through Christ Jesus. We are justified and made right with God by faith in Christ Jesus. Peace!

Prayer: Lord help me to receive your justification by faith.

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.

DOMINION

  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.
