LOOKING INWARD   Luke 15:11-24 “ But when he came to himself, he said, 'How many of my father's hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! ” (V.17) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional LOOKING INWARDS Support Us Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Luke 15:11-24 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Those who will walk into greatness as the Lord is promising in this season are people who will look inward rather than look outward. Looking inward has to do with sitting down to see what you can work out that will make men be on the lookout for you. Men who will take responsibility to think and think through their challenges. Men who believe in using what God has packaged in them to deliver themselves. There is a good example in the parable of the lost son. This young ma...

STRENGTH IN YOUR WEAKNESSES

STRENGTH IN YOUR WEAKNESSES

2 Corinthians 13:1-6
Devotional “For though He was crucified in weakness, yet He lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in Him, but we shall live with Him by the power of God toward you. (V.4)


    Everyone has weakness in all spheres of life. In fact, each of us has a bundle of flaws and imperfection physically and spiritually. What matter most is what we do with them. Normally, we often want to deny, defend, hide, resent and give excuses about them. But that way God will not be able to use them for our benefit (Proverb 28:13). God do not want to use only our strength but also our meanness for His Glory (1 Corinthians 1:27). Realize God want to bless the weak (Matthew 5:3) Note that it is the first thing God bless.

When we think of the limitations in our lives, we may be tempted to conclude “God cannot use people like me” But God is not limited by our limitations. Sincerely, He enjoys putting His great power into ordinary vessels. For God to use you, notwithstanding, you need to sincerely admit your weaknesses. Stop pretending and be honest about yourself. God is going to use you when you know who God is and know who you are.

For God to use you notwithstanding, you must be relaxed with your weaknesses. Don't be troubled about them (2 Corinthians 12:9-10). That will make you depend on God; that will also prevent arrogance (2 Corinthians 12:7). It will serve as instrument of check and balance for you in life. It will let you see a need for fellowship with other believers. Your weaknesses will help you sympathies with others (Hebrews 4:15) For God to use your weaknesses, you must honestly share your failure (Romans 7:19), your feelings (1 Corinthians 16:11), your frustrations (2 Corinthians 1:8) and your fears (2 Corinthians 12:5) with mature believers who can encourage you. Peace!

PRAYER: Lord, help me to be sincere with myself 

“YOUR LAUGHTER AT OTHERS WEAKNESSES IS A SIGN OF YOUR OWN WEAKNESSES”
