SLOW TO SPEAK  James 1:12-20 Devotional:- “So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath“ (V. 19) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SLOW TO SPEAK Support Us James 1:12-20 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com If a man is not trapped by his word, he can hardly be trapped in another way. So many times we are in judgment because we are not patient enough to hear and to know before we quickly reply or conclude matters. Do you know that many of the things that cause quarrels are not really worth it? But because we do not have the right understanding of matters, we then give our own interpretation, wrongly misinterpreting affairs and there by reacting with grievances (Proverbs 18:13). Though we may later realise our reaction is based on a wrong impression, it might have b...

NOT HOW MUCH 

Scripture Reading: Proverbs 6:6-11
Devotional:- “Go to the ant, you sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise” (V. 6) NKJV


    A major reason people end up being poor in their life is because they create a standard for themselves based on their level of salary or income today. Some people earns #200,000:00 monthly, using four cars even in a rented or official apartment. Many people are looking big because there is a big income. Most of such people always end up frustrated and disappointed in poverty.
A man's level of riches is not determined by the earning of his labour. Don’t forget that the wages of labor is payment for a part of your time and energy on the earth expended to help somebody. Some people are ready to kill for rituals to be in politics. Thinking of the volume today is equal to volume forever. What makes a man rich is the volume of interest on his investment. If the volume of interest is not able to sustain your status today, it is still poverty.

Friend, wake up. You need to know that the level of energy today that gives you the job for the salary will not continue to be there. As you grow, your company will soon do away with you, even if you are a member of the board. Your level of productivity, spiritually, mentally or physically cannot be the same for ever. Be wise to learn from the ant (Proverbs 6:6). Your real labor should be to invest more in viable investment (Ecclesiastes 11:1-4). Please give quality attention to investment so much that your interest or dividends will be equal to your current salary forever. Be wise. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to wake up and be wise.

“YOU HAVE A FAKE STATUS TODAY IF YOUR INTEREST CANNOT MEASURE UP TO IT”

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.
