PLEASING THE LORD     Proverbs 16:4-8 Devotional:- “When a man's ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.” (V. 7) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional PLEASING THE LORD Support Us Proverbs 16:4-8 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com It is commonly said that he that goes about trying to please everybody will end up not pleasing any. While you are trying to please people, you end up offending them. So you think you are doing them good, but they think you are doing them evil. This is because different people have different ways of looking at things. You have therefore resorted to doing your best and leaving the rest. But do you know that in the course of doing your best you create an enemy for yourself? And they now begin to stand against you. The best way to thc approach the af...

IT PLEASES THE LORD 

1 Thessalonians 5:14:22
Devotional- “in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (V. 18) NKJV

 Human reasoning wants to rejoice only when things are good. When it looks less, we often want to complain and shift blame. The word of God instructs us to always rejoice in the Lord (Philippians 4:1). That is, rejoicing in the hope we have in our God. The Bible says “this is the will of God in Christ Jesus”.

Praises pleases God because it is a sign of appreciation or gratitude to Him. It pleases God because it is a sign of submission to His will. It pleases God because it helps you to return glory to God. It helps you to honour God. That is why praises pleases God.

Remember, when a man's way pleases the Lord, He make Him to be at peace with even his enemy. (Proverbs 16:7). When a man's way pleases the Lord, He blesses him beyond his request (1 Kings 3:10-14). David could win the heart of God because He knows how to praise Him.

Friend, learn to praise God from a pure heart. Then your ways will please Him and He shall bless you. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me a humble heart to please you with my praises.

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.

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.
