HUMILITY   Proverb 16: 10-19 Devotional:- “Pride goes before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.” (V. 18) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional HUMILITY Support Us Proverb 16: 10-19 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Humility is given birth to by wisdom. It is an act of seeing oneself as not higher than others. Pride is the feeling of superiority and arrogance. These two are products of the mind. Someone who sees himself already at the top or already at the climax is proud. While a humble person feels he is yet to get to his best and so humbles himself to keep moving on.   Humility will help you to keep learning. It will help the state of your mind to be rightly positioned for God’s lifting (James 4:10). It helps your words to be words that can earn you favours before God and man. It wi...

SPIRITUAL GIFTS

1 Corinthians 12:1-12
Devotional:- “There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit” (v. 4)

    As stewards of God, the gifts of the spirit has been invested into our lives when we are baptism in the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 3:16). It is not given to us by merit that is why it is called gifts (Ephesians 4:7). It is the Holy Spirit that determine what each person should be given (1 Corinthians 12:11). Because God loves varieties and want each one to be special, no single gift is given to everyone and no one have all the gifts so that we can need each other. The gifts are given to each of us for the benefit of others (1 Corinthians 12:7).

The operation of spiritual gifts can be divided to three parts. The first is the Revelational gifts which includes; Word of wisdom (it reveals the divine purpose of God - Genesis 6:13-18, Acts 11:28), Word of knowledge (it reveals the facts in the mind of God - Acts 9:10-12); Discerning of spirits (it helps us to identify the spirit at work wherever we are - Luke. 13:11-13). 

The second are Power gifts which includes: Gift of Faith (This enables us to supernaturally have assurance and confidence in the power of God in any situation - Mark 4:37-39; John 11:41-44); Working of Miracles (it enables us to carry out acts contrary to natural laws - John 2:1-8; Luke 9:16-17); Gifts of Healing (Mark 1:29-31, Mark. 3:3-5). 

The third are the Utterance Gifts: Gift of Prophecy (I Corinthians 14:1-5, 22-25, 39-40), Diverse Kinds of Tongues (Acts 2:4, Acts 10:46). Interpretation of Tongues (Daniel 5:25-28, 1 Corinthians 14:13, 26-28). The word of God instruct us to activate these gifts and this is by prayer and fasting, effective service, laying on of Hands, faith and worship (2 Timothy 1:6-7). Use these gifts as faithful stewards of Jesus. Peace

Prayer: Lord, help me to be a blessing to others with your gifts

“GOD MADE YOU TO BE A BLESSING WITH HIS GIFTS”

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   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.
