SLOW TO SPEAK  James 1:12-20 Devotional:- “So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath“ (V. 19) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SLOW TO SPEAK Support Us James 1:12-20 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com If a man is not trapped by his word, he can hardly be trapped in another way. So many times we are in judgment because we are not patient enough to hear and to know before we quickly reply or conclude matters. Do you know that many of the things that cause quarrels are not really worth it? But because we do not have the right understanding of matters, we then give our own interpretation, wrongly misinterpreting affairs and there by reacting with grievances (Proverbs 18:13). Though we may later realise our reaction is based on a wrong impression, it might have b...

HIS COUNSEL STANDS

HIS COUNSEL STANDS

Genesis 45:1-11
Devotional:- “Then Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph; does my father still live?" But his brothers could not answer him, for they were dismayed in his presence” (V. 3) NKJV

    Sometimes the enemy feels he can stop the counsel of God, but the Bible says the counsel of God shall stand. That is why you need to stand in faith in God's word and not in your experience on earth.

Joseph was a man of many troubles. The enemy used his brothers’ attitude against him in his family with all determination that his dreams would not come to reality (Genesis 37:18-20). God often reveals to him that he will rule over his brothers. As a child of around sixteen, he was not wise enough to have been telling his brothers about his dreams. And he created enmity for himself in the house. They sold him to slavery for money. Because God's counsel cannot fail, he still become ruler in the land of slavery and his brother at last came there to bow to him. He at last ruled over his brothers.

Friend, don't let the enemy turn you into an instrument against anyone else, you may regret doing so. But you need to know also that God’s counsel about you cannot change. He will surely fulfill His word notwithstanding the effort of the enemy. You will surely rule. Just be sure you remain in the will of God and keep serving Him with all faithfulness. At last, your enemies will bow themselves to you. Soon their children will be at your mercy. This is because the counsel of God will surely come to stand in your life.

Prayer: Lord, help me to remain in your will till I will be lifted by your hand.

“GOD IS NOT WAITING FOR ANYONE’S ADVICE, ONLY HIS COUNSEL SHALL STAND”

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   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.
