  INSIST ON EXCELLENCE   Genesis 39:1-6 Devotional:- “So Joseph found favour in his sight, and served him. Then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority.” (v. 4) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional INSIST ON EXCELLENCE Support Us Genesis 39:1-6 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Until a man puts excellence into anything he is doing, he will not excel. Many people often allow their situation to determine their lifestyle. This is because they do not know that the period of trials for a Christian is a period of test. And if you allow the situation to determine your approach to your work, that may fail.   Though, Joseph was a slave in the house of Potiphar, yet, it did not take much time for him to become an overseer in the house. The reason is that he insiste...

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.

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “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. 17) NLT  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 prayers to 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 spir...
