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...

GOD IS GOOD

Scripture Reading: Psalms 145:8-13
Devotional:- “The Lord is good to all, And His tender mercies are over all His works” (V. 9)

    Praises is when man can see God as being good to them. No heart will be willing to sincerely praise God except they see God being good. Man passes through different season in life. All of them are to work out a good end for us (Romans 8:28). In the midst of our challenging experience, no one enjoys it. Even Jesus asked God to make amendment in the midst of challenges (Luke 22:42; Hebrews 12:11). But God allows us to pass through it all that it might turn to a testimony for us (Luke 21:13)

The Bible says, the Lord is good to all. His tender mercies are seen in all His works. If not for the mercy of the Lord, what shall we be saying today (Psalms 124). If it is not the mercy of the Lord, where shall we be today? We all need to know that God is good to us. You need to always see Him good to you. He is never wicked. It is in seeing His goodness around you that your heart activates His goodness in your life.

You need to know that God will be to you as you see Him (Exodus 3:14). Let your heart always consider Him good (Psalms 135:3). You will find praises of God flowing through your heart to your mouth when you consider Him good to you and He will be able to perform His goodness through your life. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me the understanding to see your goodness in all things

“IT IS THE GOODNESS OF GOD THAT SUSTAINS ALL THINGS”

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...
