  DECIDE TO SUCCEED 1 Chronicles 4:1-10 Devotional:- “And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, "Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!" So God granted him what he requested” (v. 10) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional DECIDE TO SUCCEED Support Us 1 Chronicles 4:1-10 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com The decisions of a man will determine what he will eventually become in life. No one decides to fail and then suddenly succeed. People succeed because they choose and decide to succeed. In the scriptures we read today, there was a break in history as generations of people are mentioned. Why this break? This is because a man’s decision changes his status. There was no such pause on many ot...

GOOD WORKS

Scripture Reading: Ephesians 2:1-10
Devotional:- “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them”  (V. 10) NKJV


    God is a good God. He is the one that does good works (Job 5:9). If anyone therefore wants to do good works as the Bible says, then he/she must be ready to do what God is doing. To do good works is also to be used by God to help others. Good works are therefore a ministry of help to humanity.

The word of God said: God has recreated us and prepared us for this. In other word, we were saved and redeemed for this purpose. When Jesus redeemed us, He has repackaged in us the ability to do good works. This He does through the Holy Spirit He gave to us. The Holy Spirit does this through us by giving us different abilities and gifts (1 Corinthians 12:6-7). These are our instruments for good works.

It is therefore important that make sure our services to God are good works before God. This is by doing it to please the master and to bless lives. Our work may look good but it is not done in righteousness, it will be bad work. The difference between good and bad work is that only good work will be rewarded by God. God must direct us to it and we do it in His will by His grace and abilities He gave us. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make all my life for your good works

“It is either you are doing good work or bad work”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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...
