WHEN TO FAST    Matthew 9:9-17 Devotional:- “Then the disciples of John came to Him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but Your disciples do not fast?" (v. 14) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional WHEN TO FAST Support Us Matthew 9:9-17 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com There is no way anyone can be strong mentally or physically if he spends all his days fasting. Food is one of the most important things a humans needs to keep fit to win in the race of life. If anyone does not take time to eat good food, he may not be strong enough in life. But then, in the midst of these, there is still a need sometimes to deny oneself of food.   Fasting is a spiritual exercise that helps you to deny yourself of the influence of the flesh to concentrate during prayer. This helps to relate with God in e...

SERVICE IN PATIENCE

Genesis 40:4-15
Devotional:- “And they said to him, "We each have had a dream, and there is no interpreter of it." So Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell them to me, please”” (V. 8) NKJV

    God has put in every man one thing or the other to be used to climb to the top. These are in the form of gifts, talents or call it potentials. God’s word says the gift of a man will make a way for him (Proverbs 18:16).

Joseph knew he was a man of destiny. God had revealed many things to him about it. However, challenges brought him to Egypt as a slave. And he gave himself to service. Using all the gifts and talents or potentials he found in himself to serve others. He gave his best in service by faith. He was convinced that his lifting would come. Service lifted him in Potiphar’s house but they sent him to prison (Genesis 39). Nevertheless, he kept serving by faith knowing that one day he would be lifted again.

Friend, start to serve with your gifts and talents. It is an act of faith for your lifting (Mark 10:43-45). Make others better with your gift. Don’t bother what it is going to cost you to do this. Do not wait for any appreciation either. Keep serving by faith. Wait patiently, soon God will open the door for you. That same potential shall be needed at the top and your announcement shall come.

Prayer: Lord, grant me the grace to keep serving faithfully.

“SERVICE IS THE LADDER TO THE TOP”

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...
