DEFINE PLEASURE  Proverbs 21:12-21 Devotional:- “He who loves pleasure will be a poor man; He who loves wine and oil will not be rich.” (v. 17) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional DEFINE PLEASURE Support Us Proverbs 21:12-21 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com There is nothing wrong with pleasure, but there is a need to define what it means in a way that it will not bring destruction to you. Pleasure to most people means idleness, sleeping, jesting, watching T.V and all sorts of films, extravagant spending at beer parlous and hotels, eating in all the city kitchens and to some it is just travelling all around. The truth is that none of those things are real pleasure. If those things are what you call pleasures, then, no matter how much you have now, poverty and sorrow are on the way. Real pleasure is not that which man creat...

TRAINING

Daniel 1:1-10
Devotional:- "And the king appointed for them a daily provision of the king’s delicacies and of the wine which he drank, and three years of training for them, so that at the end of that time they might serve before the king". (V. 5)

    When Daniel and the three Hebrews where brought into the palace of Babylon, they have to plan a training for them. It is important to think of training for people to have quality understanding of what is expected of them. There is need for training for people to become skilful in their process of production. There is need for training to the producer to produce the best. There is need for training for the producer to be exposed to the varieties of approaches to his work.

The king of Babylon has to approve three years for the training of these Israelites, because years spent in training is not a waste. An untrained product may waste much materials and opportunities in the cause of trial by error. An untrained producer can wound himself handling some machines wrongly. An untrained producer can be a disappointment.

Friend there is a strong need for each of us to keep training in our area of production. Training will make effective and efficiency (2 Timothy 2:15). Training will makes us skilful, training will make us very strong and give us high turnover in production (Ecclesiastics 10:10). The training can be formal or informal, yet they must help us to achieve the set goal. Let us be wise to give ourselves to training and we shall be successful. Peace!

Prayer- Lord, help me to be humble to submit to training”

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.

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE

TRANSFORMED BY TROUBLE 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 Devotional:- “For our present troubles are small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!” (V. 17) NLT  God has a purpose behind every problem. God depends more on circumstances to grow our character than reading the Bible; this is because we have challenging circumstances twenty four seven. The word of God made us to see challenges in our life as normal (1 Peter 4:18). Your deepest expression of worship is mostly in the darkest days. It is during suffering that we learn to pray our most authentic, heart-felt and honest prayers to God (James 5:16). God would have kept Jeremiah from the throne to the pit, Joseph from been thrown into the jail, Paul from been shipwrecked or the three Hebrew from been thrown into the fire but he left those problems to himself. You will never know that God is all you need until God is all you have.  Everything that happens to you has spir...
