  DANGEROUS PROMISES   Proverb 6:1-5 “You are snared by the words of your mouth; You are taken by the words of your mouth” (V. 2) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional DANGEROUS PROMISES Support Us Proverb 6:1-5 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Some people rashly give words of promises, and it has become a snare to their lives. Many even ignorantly go into covenant with others in the name of family relation or financial help and could not fulfil their pledge. Some give pledges in public, though they are not sure if they will be able to pay. Some have borrowed money and have not been able to pay back after promising to do so. It is better not to promise than to promise and not fulfil it; be very careful rushing to make dangerous promises. Else God will not count you innocent and faithful. And his ric...

FOLLOWING HIS STEPS

FOLLOWING HIS STEPS

Scripture: 1 Peter 2:18-25
Devotional:- “For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps” (v.21) NKJV

    Discipleship is following the master. If we are going to be the disciples of Jesus, we must be willing to follow the steps of Jesus. This is what we should do in every aspects of our lives.

The world around us does not know the Lord, so, to make them our example will be totally wrong. That is why the way of the Lord will be odd to the ungodly. You must not emulate anyone but only those who are followers of Christ.

To be able to follow the steps of Jesus we must learn the details of His ways. This is by daily studying the word of God, to learn His ways. This way, the Holy Spirit will help us realize our wrong paths and we always make the choice of following the master. Ask, at any point of decision taken, what will Jesus do in this situation? Often time, the steps of Jesus will be different to the human approach and choices. It may even look unprofitable, but that is what will please the Lord to make us enjoy the blessing of God (Proverbs 14:12; Isaiah 55:8-12). Getting addicted to the steps of the master put you in continuos blessings of the master (Matthew 6:33). It is time to step out of worldliness into godliness. Peace

Prayer- Lord, give me the courage to always follow your ways.

“ God’s ways are often opposite of  man’s ways”

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.
