RECOGNIZING POTENTIALS  Matthew 9:9-13 Devotional:- “ As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him. ” (V.9) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional RECOGNIZING POTENTIALS Support Us Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Matthew 9:9-13 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of the means to gain opportunities for our greatness is by recognising great potentials that God has placed both within and around us. There are great potentials we have not discovered in ourselves, and we need to discover them. But more, God has located some people with potential around us. These potentials are in some young-hearted people around us. When we encourage them to be discovered and be exploited, we also break into an abunda...

SHOW OFF

SHOW OFF

Matthew 6:5-8.
Devotional:- “And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward". (V. 5)

    Most of the events that brings snare to our soul and water us down are product of show off. These are what we do to please people or to demonstrate that we are there.

To show means you are pretending to be what you are not (Proverbs 13:7). Many people have this attitude and this will bring their frustrations. Since the truth will always prevail, the people you are pretending to, will soon see you as you are. This can bring anyone to shame. There is no reason to borrow dress for an occasion. You will not be comfortable when you buy a dress on credit and you have not paid and you are demonstrating with it in the face of the seller.

Jesus teaches us to be humble and be sincere people. Many will vow in the public what they cannot afford and this will bring shame to their life. See, your heart is fragile; don't ever embark on anything that is not true (Proverbs 4:23). In other word, do your search properly before embarking on any venture.  Always be sincere to yourself. If you ridicule yourself before people, you may not find it easy to forgive yourself. Please always be sincere with yourself. Then you will keep your heart from frustration and live in joy. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from show off spirit.

 “Showing off is displaying what you are not to the people who don't need you”

  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.

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.

WAYS ON WATER Exodus 14:10-22 Devotional:- “So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.” (v. 22) NKJV      The enemy's trick in the lives of so many people today is to make them believe that they have come to their crossroads and that the road has ended. So many always agree with this deceptive thought, which leads to their frustrations. The enemy makes them look at situations around them as evidence of his words. So, many people easily agree with the devil and become victims of his deceit.
