FAITHFUL SERVANT  1 Samuel 18:1-5 “ So David went out wherever Saul sent him, and behaved wisely. And Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants. ” (V.5) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional FAITHFUL SERVANT Support Us Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  1 Samuel 18:1-5 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of the common routes to greatness available for most people on earth is the opportunity to voluntarily serve. But most men do not know how to use it for their lifting , so they remain slaves in hard labour. Many believe that serving is a waste . Service itself is an opportunity created by God for the lifting of men, but most people do not know how to make the most of it. In the scripture we read today is Davi...

TRADING THE FLESH

TRADING THE FLESH

Romans 8:1-11
Devotional:- “For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace (v. 6)

        A major challenge of most relationship is our ‘self”. Each one is always trying to display and uphold his “self”. This causes much rift whenever any family is settling dispute or disagreements. It is also important that we remember that when we give our life to Jesus, we gave out our self and take his life. The flesh or self is the mind-set of our culture, tradition and nature. So as children of God we can no longer allow the flesh or our canal mind or self to rule our lives or ruin our relationship (Romans 6:14)

To overcome the flesh, the Bible tells us to give it to God as a living sacrifice (Romans 12:1-2). A sacrifice is normally killed, though we are still alive but we should consider ourselves dead to sin and self (Romans 6:11). That is seeing yourself totally disconnected from sin and the world but only connected to God. That is the reason Jesus said we must be converted and be as a child to learn the way of the kingdom of God (Matthew 18:3). As long as a man has the mind-set of the world, he will not be able to please God (Rom 8:7-8). We are to start to unlearn all the cultural and traditional approach of living. We are to start to renew our mind in the word of God. (Rom 12:2)

As a child of God, you should not think of fighting back anymore or living a life of sin (Galatians 2:20). That way, you will enjoy your relationship. Peace

Prayer: Lord, deliver me from the spirit of self.

“IT IS WHEN YOU COME TO THE END OF YOUR SELF THAT GOD CAN LIVE THROUGH YOU”

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.

WAYS ON WATER Exodus 14:10-22 Devotional:- “So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.” (v. 22) NKJV      The enemy's trick in the lives of so many people today is to make them believe that they have come to their crossroads and that the road has ended. So many always agree with this deceptive thought, which leads to their frustrations. The enemy makes them look at situations around them as evidence of his words. So, many people easily agree with the devil and become victims of his deceit.
