  OUTWIT  2 Corinthians 2:3-11 Devotional:- “Lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices” (v.11) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional OUTWIT Support Us 2 Corinthians 2:3-11 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com   Many times, we allow the devil to play on our intelligence. So he just finds it easy to walk in and out of our lives. But it is high time we start to outwit him in all instances. Many Christians up till now are still ignorant of the devices of the devil. Since we have the Spirit of God, the enemy should not outwit us.   For the devil to outwit a man is for him to outsmart him. How does he do this? He tricks some into little sins and stands to condemn them before God. So you must be wiser and forsake little, little lies, boasting, excessive talk, unforgiveness,...

IMPATIENCE

IMPATIENCE

SCRIPTURE: HEBREWS 4:8-13    
DEVOTIONAL:- “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart”. (Vs. 12)

    One major thing which many people are not careful about that can hinder their prayers is impatience. It is natural for a person to be impatient because of our human inability to manage our temperamental weaknesses. This is why we need to have quality understanding of the ways of the kingdom of God.

The king of this kingdom is God and His ways are different from ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). He has His own eternal plan and He made us to fulfill a part of His plans (Jeremiah 29:11, Isaiah 43:21). In God's agenda, there are things He will not do according to our plans but according to His own plan. This then calls for our maturity to work with Him in humility and endurance for our good and for His glory.

You need to stop comparing your life with others' (2 Cor. 10:12). We are not created to behave the same way. We may sometimes be impatient and angry with God, but that is not enough for us to act in unseeming ways. There are times when some Christians change their church family because of impatience. This is really not a step of spiritual maturity. 

Friend, you need to covenant your life to stay with Jesus and remain in your church. This is because it takes planting to flourish (Psalms 92:13). Impatience makes you change your mind in doubt (James 1:6-8). It confuses the angels assigned on your prayers. So, watch out. Be mature to be patience with God. Then you will always receive answers to your prayers. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to patiently wait on you for my desires

“WAITING IN PATIENCE IS A PROOF OF MATURITY”

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...
