AVOID GAINS OF DISHONESTY  Proverbs 13:4-12 Devotional:- Wealth gained by dishonesty will be diminished, But he who gathers by labor will increase. (V. 11) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional AVOID GAINS OF DISHONESTY Support Us Proverbs 13:4-12 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Most people just want increase. Whatever means doesn’t really matter, it is increase that matters to them. So they employ both cheating and stealing and every means to gather. What they call their gain, someone else’s sweat is in it; some of the money is even blood money. But do you know that God cannot be mocked? Whatsoever a man sowed, he shall reap (Gal 6:7). Since the money or the property does not belong to them, God place on them the curse of diminishing returns. And they will never know how or what has happened until they are back ...

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

2 Corinthians 4:7-18
Dev:- “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.17NLT) 

    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 to prayers 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 spiritual significant (Romans 8:28-29). Every situation is a character building opportunity. 

Your circumstances are temporal but the character built is eternal. Someone ask a silver smith “How do you know when the silver is pure?”  He replied “when I see my reflection in it (James 1:3). Be set to go through what Jesus went through to be like him, loneliness, temptation, stress, criticism, rejection etc. Then you will reflect Christ indeed. So, always remember Gods plan for you is good (Jeremiah 29:11). Always rejoice and give thanks (1 Thessalonian 5:16-18) Refuse to give up? (Hebrews 10:36). You will overcome. Peace!

PRAYER –Lord, help me to be a reflection of Christ.

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   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.
