SPEAK    Acts 18:1-11 Devotional:- “ Now the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, 'Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not keep silent ” (V. 9) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SPEAK Support Us Acts 18:1-11 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of the major ways to make known the potential in us is by speaking. If you don’t speak, no one will know what you are up to or what you can offer. Jesus said It is from the abundance of the heart that the mouth speaks (Matthew 12:34). It is therefore important for you to know that when you are opportune to speak either to someone or a multitude, God has given you a privilege to express what is inside you. In the scripture we read today, the Lord said to Paul the apostle that he needed to keep speaking in that town to fulfil his purpose there. Speaking what?...

CORRECTION

CORRECTION

Ephesians 4:1-6
Devotional:- “with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love” (V. 2)

        As human being, we grow into maturity when we make changes from our wrong attitude to the right one. For change to take place, there is a need for us to be corrected in such area of change. If we are going to be corrected, God is going to use men to do so and we are also to be used to correct others. Since no correction; no change: then, we cannot avoid been corrected by people around us. If our relationship will grow then, the approach to correction must be very mature.

The word of God teaches us to correct each other with love. This is correcting each other with understanding. Not reacting but resolving individual confusion with understanding. Knowing full well that if a mature person behaves wrongly, it is because they do not understand what makes them err. Therefore, we should not take correction as accusation but explanation to bring them to understand. By so doing, we can win them to the side of wisdom.

By reacting to people, we confront them without considering them. That way, we create reaction for further reaction and they will not be able to learn. It takes humility to genuinely correct and people will take it like that. Many times, we need to pray for God to touch them before we do (Proverbs 2 1:1). Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, teach me the skill of good correction.

“IT IS WATER FOR FIRE THAT OFTEN CORRECTS AND NOT FIRE FOR FIRE”

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.

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.
