TRUST NOT IN RICHES  Proverb 11:24-31 Devotional:- He who trusts in his riches will fall, But the righteous will flourish like foliage. (V. 28) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional TRUST NOT IN RICHES Support Us Proverb 11:24-31 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Life has been uncomfortable and unfair to some people because they have trusted their lives on riches. People don't think wisely enough that all that has a beginning must also have an end. But God is the only one who has no beginning and no end. God is the only source that cannot dry. Business may be up and down, but God is ever up. It will be wise to trust in the ever-flourishing God. A man that trusts in riches will soon be frustrated. The mind of the greedy is that I will still gather more, so that it will never finish, but it’s a pity; they will still la...

PEOPLE PLEASING

PEOPLE PLEASING

Matthew 14:1-12
Devotional:- "And the king was sorry; nevertheless, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he commanded it to be given to her". (V. 9)

    Those who live their lives pleasing people will end up in self-destruction. To please men is to try to satisfy people at the expense of your life. It is greatly killing. In most cases when we have pleased people and they are gone, we may keep cleaning the mess for months.

This man we read about today wanted to please people and he instructed the killing of the man of God. But he wound his own heart and remained a problem for him. That is why the memory keep witch hunting him (Matthew 14:1-2). Even the people he was trying to please that day knew he was entering into a big problem.

Friend, don’t join foolish people in this game of self-deception. It will have no good end.  Always be open and be sincere to people. That does not reduce you but releases you. Don’t try to please people and displease God who is your help. A true believer will always choose to please God than people (Act 4:19-20). You will enjoy the help of God and your heart will remain in peace.

Prayer: Lord, give me the spirit of self-sincerity

“Pleasing people is using what you don't have to satisfy those who hate you”.

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.
