YOUR MIND                  Mark 7:14-23 Devotional:- “There is nothing that enters a man from outside which can defile him; but the things which come out of him, those are the things that defile a man” (V.15) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional YOUR MIND Support Us Mark 7:14-23 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of the greatest enemies man has is himself. Until you realize this, you may still be far from the truth of victory. The scripture we read today said, “It is the things that come out of a man that defile him. The word defile can be likened to anything that makes him unworthy, not qualify or standing against him. It simply means that what often stands against man is from within him and that is what can defile or corrupt him.   There is a need for you to...

WHAT IS RIGHTEOUSNESS?

WHAT IS RIGHTEOUSNESS? 

Scripture Reading: Psalm 15:1-5
Devotional NKJV :- “He who walks uprightly, And works righteousness, And speaks the truth in his heart;” (v. 2)

    The dictionary defines righteousness as adhering or conforming to the acceptable norm or moral standard. The world standard of righteousness is not the same as the righteousness of God. There are laws that were made in some nations of the world to approve what God disapproved. For example: That a law made homosexuality acceptable in some country does not make it righteous before God. For any practice to be righteous, it must agree with the word of God.

From the scripture we read today, we saw that righteousness of God is uprightness, justice, integrity, honesty, faithfulness and more before God. As believers, God commanded us to be righteous because righteousness is the nature of God (Matthew 5:48). To have the nature of man, we were born of man, but to have the nature of God we must be born of God (John 3:3-6)

Righteousness is having a right standing with God (Gen.17:1). In other word, this is aligning our life with that of God so that His glory can be seen in us. Just like the moon that reflects the glory of the sun. Jesus shed His blood to purchase the righteousness of God for all who will believe in Him (Romans 3:21-26). It is the righteousness of God through Christ that saves us (1 John 1:7-9). So when God see us He sees His righteousness in us. This makes us to be able to stand before God without guilt (Romans 5:1). No religion practices can give righteousness (Isaiah 64:6). It can be found when the blood of Jesus cleanses you (1 John 1:7-9). By this we are qualify for all God’s goodness. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, give me the grace to be partaker of your righteousness 

“Only righteousness can stand before God”

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.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
