  MADE FOR DOMINION  Genesis 1:26-31 Devotional:- “Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth." (v.28) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional MADE FOR DOMINION Support Us Genesis 1:26-31 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com   The major purpose of creating man was to dominate over the earth. This is because the purpose of a product is in the assignment given to it to carry out. The reason God wanted us to dominate the earth was to make us represent Him here and to prevent the enemy from ruling the earth. So, our dominion was delegated. That is why it demands clear knowledge to operate in it.   It is clear in the scripture, God’...

SELF DENIAL

SELF DENIAL

Scripture: Matthew 16:24-28

Devotional:- "Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me" (v.24) NKJV

    An important factor in the process of becoming like Jesus is that you must deny yourself to be able to follow Him. Self is the major hindrance to our work with God. By self, I mean the flesh, this is the human nature in us. This human nature has been cultured into sinful and selfish life. The flesh does not want to please God (Romans 8:5-8). So those who are ruled by the desires of their flesh cannot please God.

If anyone want to be a disciple of Jesus, he/she must deny the flesh to satisfy God. Our body is made to help us relate with the physical world, but we must put it under control so that it does not send us to hell.

Every attempt you made to please God, your human nature will not support it. So you deny it by not allowing it but yielding to the Holy Spirit and the word of God. It is then you can begin to grow into the likeness of Christ. Your ability to say No to the flesh and Yes to God is a good step towards maturity. Then His beauty shall be seen on you. Peace

Prayer - Lord, give me the enablement to yield to you always.

“Every man is either yielding to God or flesh”

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.

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...
