DEFINE PLEASURE  Proverbs 21:12-21 Devotional:- “He who loves pleasure will be a poor man; He who loves wine and oil will not be rich.” (v. 17) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional DEFINE PLEASURE Support Us Proverbs 21:12-21 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com There is nothing wrong with pleasure, but there is a need to define what it means in a way that it will not bring destruction to you. Pleasure to most people means idleness, sleeping, jesting, watching T.V and all sorts of films, extravagant spending at beer parlous and hotels, eating in all the city kitchens and to some it is just travelling all around. The truth is that none of those things are real pleasure. If those things are what you call pleasures, then, no matter how much you have now, poverty and sorrow are on the way. Real pleasure is not that which man creat...

PRESENCE OF GOD

Scripture Reading: Numbers 14:1-10
Devotional:- “Only do not rebel against the LORD, nor fear the people of the land, for they are our bread; their protection has departed from them, and the LORD is with us. Do not fear them" (V. 9) NKJV


       For anyone to be strong as a child of God, he/she must carry a mindset of the presence of God. God said to us that He will never leave nor forsake us (Joshua 1:5). Jesus said, “He will be with us forever” (Matthew 28:20). These are the truth of the word of God. To be strong, a man must believe and accept this truth as a reality for himself. You must always see God himself. You must always see God behind you with your eyes of imagination according to the word of God (John 8:29).

The children of Israel got themselves into trouble because they are not aware that the presence of God was in their mindset. Joshua told them that the Lord is in their midst to give them victory, but they could not understand. Until over 600,000 of them died in the wilderness.

Friend, things of the Spirit is different from the physical. Learn to know and imagine that the word of God is true. See the presence of God with you always (Psalms 16:8). Wherever you may go from now, see in your imagination that the presence of God is with you (John 8:29). That is a strong factor of confidence and strength in the Lord (Psalm 23:5). Then you will always be confident in life. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always see your presence with me.

“IF GOD IS WITH YOU, YOU CANNOT BE DEFEATED”

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11).

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...
