  JACOB Genesis 31:3-13 Devotional:- "And it happened, at the time when the flocks conceived, that I lifted my eyes and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon the flocks were streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted.” (v.10) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional JACOB Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Genesis 31:3-13 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Among those who ruled in the midst of their enemies was Jacob. Right from the time he was in the womb, it’s been said about him that he struggled with his brother (Gen 25:22). So, he started his life battle from the womb.   When he grew up, he lived a life of struggle till he ran from his father’s house to the house of Laban, only to find out that he had run away from his brother to the hand of another enemy. Such is the life of many today who keep running from place ...

BE GENTLE

Scripture Reading: 1 Peter 3:1-7
Devotional:- “rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God” (V. 4) NKJV


    No one wants to lose. Everyone wants to override others. That seems to be the way of most people today. It is becoming like a taboo to submit or to allow others. When a man has struggles in his spirit, he cannot be gentle in dealing with others. The word of God instructed us to be gentle. 

To be gentle is to be able to manage once temperament or behavior. It is to be tender and be easily corrected and adapt to positive change. It is to be moderate in action. Not harsh, but willing to help people gradually. It does not in any way interpret stupidity. It is a calm and confident spirit (Proverbs 12:1). The word of God actually calls it the inner beauty. Dictionary defines it, as been noble or having the quality of a noble birth. The word of God said, it is very precious before God. Another version says it is of the greatest value before God.

The reason for all of these qualifications is because gentleness produces quietness. Quietness creates humility to learn, listen and observe people carefully before responding to them (Proverbs 18:13). It is better to think than to talk. So, it always enhances a wise answer (Proverbs 15:28). This makes him to win by wisdom. Most wrong reactions are products of a loud heart. Inner struggle will have harsh reactions. God is set to make you an indispensable vessel in Jesus’ name. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, create in me a quality heart.

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.
