BEGIN TO RULE Psalms 110:1-7 Devotional:- “The LORD shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies!” (v.2) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional BEGIN TO RULE Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Psalm 110:1-7 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com   Believers need to know that God has given us the right to rule and succeed. The mandate of our rulership is given to us through our Lord Jesus Christ (Luke 10:19). Now, we can succeed, but we also need to know the truth that our enemies are there in the world, and God is not willing to remove the devil because it is not in God’s agenda to do that now. Therefore, believers are supposed to rule in the midst of their enemies.   This simply means you are to succeed in the midst of your enemies no matter what. No matter their number and their power, He that is in you is more...

RAISING GODLY FELLOWSHIP

RAISING GODLY FELLOWSHIP 

Ephesians 4:1-6
Devotional – “Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace” (v.3)


    It is only the Holy Spirit that can raise true and godly fellowship of believers but He uses the committed members of the body of Christ who make themselves available [Ephesians 4:3]. It is by God’s power this is possible but we must choose to commit ourselves to the work of the kingdom wherever we find ourselves either in the school or in different community on earth.

To raise a genuine and Godly fellowship we must share the truth of the word of God and not of human philosophy [Ephesians 4:15]. To raise true Godly fellowship takes humility, self-importance, and stubborn pride easily destroys fellowship. Humility is the oil that makes relationship smooth [1 Pet 5:5]. To develop humility, admit your weaknesses, be patience with others’ weaknesses, be open to correction and showing others the Bible love [Rom 12:16]. Humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less [i.e. to be humble is to think more of others] serving others. 

To raise a godly fellowship takes courtesy i.e. respecting our differences, being considerate of each other’s feeling and patience with people who irritate us [Rom 15:2, Titus 3:2]. To raise a godly fellowship takes confidentiality i.e. we don’t gossip one another’s needs and mistakes. God hates gossip [Proverbs 16:28]. To raise good and godly fellowship takes consistency i.e. regular contact with each other. Godly relationship is not built on convenience but conviction to be one. 

We must learn to encourage and support each other [1 John 3:16]. To raise a godly fellowship we must restore broken relationship [2 Corinthians 5:18, Matt 5:9]. Restoring broken relationship or fellowship is a lot of work. To restore relationships, talk to God before talking to people and sympathize with their feelings. Confess your part of the conflict [Matt 7:5]. Attack the problem and not the person [Proverbs 15:1]. Cooperate and emphasize on reconciliation and not just resolution. Peace! 

 PRAYERS—Lord, make me your vessel for a godly fellowship

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.

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.
