PLEASING THE LORD     Proverbs 16:4-8 Devotional:- “When a man's ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.” (V. 7) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional PLEASING THE LORD Support Us Proverbs 16:4-8 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com It is commonly said that he that goes about trying to please everybody will end up not pleasing any. While you are trying to please people, you end up offending them. So you think you are doing them good, but they think you are doing them evil. This is because different people have different ways of looking at things. You have therefore resorted to doing your best and leaving the rest. But do you know that in the course of doing your best you create an enemy for yourself? And they now begin to stand against you. The best way to thc approach the af...

STRONG MEN

Joshua 14:10-15
Devotional:- As yet I am as strong this day as on the day that Moses sent me; just as my strength was then, so now is my strength for war, both for going out and for coming in. (V 11)

     Victory in life is not for the weak but for the strong. This does not mean we have to start body-building to overcome in life. But we need to have the wisdom that gives birth to strength. If you notice any man who always over-power others, what it takes is only strength through wisdom. Weak people have no portion here on earth. Some are just thirty-two years, and are living as somebody of over ninety-five years old.

Caleb was a strong man and we see this all through his life. He was one of the twelve that was sent by Moses to spy the land of Canaan in Numbers 13 and 14. Ten of the spies came back with negative report, but Caleb and Joshua came with a good one – the Godly and goodly kind of report. This is because of their knowledge of God. they knew He is a great God that cannot fail. This same Caleb is saying in our scripture here today, that he could still go to war at eighty. Not requesting for battle on a plain ground but at the mountain top.

If you too want to be strong all the days of your life, then learn these two secrets of Caleb. The first is that He knew God. He was a man of knowledge (Daniel 11:32). He was also living in the wisdom of God (Proverb 24:5). God is the giver of strength (Isaiah 40:29). Seek to know Him and he will supply you. Don’t die in weakness, Seek to know and believe in Him. It is knowledge that make strong. Ignorant create doubt and fear. Refuse to be defeated by the troubles of this world. If any will will live in sickness or the affliction of life, its not you. If any will live frustrated in failure its not you. Give yourself to seeking knowledge and you will be made strong.

Prayer: Lord, the great I am is in me, I will not be defeated or frustrated

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

  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.
