YOUR SKIN COLOUR   Acts 13:1-5 Devotional:- “ Among the prophets and teachers of the church at Antioch of Syria were Barnabas, Simeon (called "the black man"), Lucius (from Cyrene), Manaen (the childhood companion of King Herod Antipas), and Saul. ” (V.1) NLT . 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional YOUR SKIN COLOUR Support Us Acts 13:1-5 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com In the world of beauty, people in this part of the world psychologically believe that having a colour other than black makes you a better person. This goes beyond beauty ; it is rather a mental thing . People who are drivers to men of other colour believe that they are better people and are proud of it, even if the one they drive is the age of their son.  But it is high time people received the understanding that it is God who made man in His o...

PURSUE HOLINESSS

Scripture Reading: Hebrews 12:12-17
Devotional:- “Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:” (V. 14) NKJV


    Holiness is the standard of God’s attitude. That is why the Bible says that “God is a Holy God” (Leviticus 19:2). Holiness is perfection. It is living without a blemish. It is living a life of total surrendered life unto God. This is a life that is always obedience unto God in all things. It is a life totally separated and sanctified unto God (Romans 12:1). 

Surely, this is not an experience expected from a baby Christian. Yet, it is expected from a mature Christian. The word of God says “nothing unholy will enter heaven” (Revelation 21:8). And, if heaven is our destination, then we must pursue to live a life of holiness unto God. To pursue is to run after something (1 Peter 1:15). It is to set it as a goal and work toward it. We are not to put it aside thinking that it is not possible. 

Friend, you and I will need to pursue holiness to see God. To pursue means, to make it our target. To always aim at it. While we are yet to get there, we don’t relax. We make it part of our life race. So that, we can be an acceptable vessel to God. We must be careful not to fall short of the grace of God. We must flee from bitterness and pursue peace with people and holiness. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, strengthen me to keep pursuing peace and holiness.

“IT IS WHAT YOU KEEP PURSUING THAT WILL KEEP PURSUING YOU”

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.

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.
