SHOW OFF MOTIVE    Acts 5:1-10 Devotional:- “ And he kept back part of the proceeds, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles' feet. ” (v.2) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SHOW OFF MOTIVE Support Us Acts 5:1-10 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com In many cases we query the faithfulness of God, simply because we often expect God to act in one way which he may not. The truth is that anytime there seem to be a failure, you cannot blame God. Many of us do not even know that it is a sin to blame God. Why? God cannot commit error. So the fault should have been at our side.   In the event we read about today, I could see a major cause of the problem and that was wrong motive. The giving of the family must have been to do what everyone was doing. That is why i...

STOP THAT FEAR

STOP THAT FEAR   

Matthew 14:22-33
“And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, "It is a ghost!" And they cried out for fear” (V. 26) NKJV

    The enemy has gained so much ground in the lives of some people that they are always afraid of everything. God’s word says “Fear has torment” (1 John 4:18), Fear is destructive to life and destiny. Fear would not let a man live to see fulfillment of his destiny. Since fear is the opposite of faith, no fearful man can exercise faith to receive from God.

Fear grows in the hearts of people who will not depend upon the assurance of the word of God. Such a life will be frustrating. It will also grow in the heart of someone who listens more to evil stories than good ones. Fear will also grow in the heart of someone who believes in what people are saying rather than what God says. Anyone who is always afraid is already captured by the devil. Where there is fear, the devil can always prevail.

In the scripture we read today, the disciples of Jesus became afraid because of what they saw. Jesus was walking on the sea, coming to help his disciples out of the storm, but they thought He was a ghost. People are always afraid of the unknown, failure, and death. Be careful of what you often allow in your thoughts (Proverbs 23:7).

To overcome fear, you need to begin to build your confidence in God by His word. You can always be afraid when you feel alone. To be confident is to live in the consciousness of the presence of God (Psalm 23:4, Joshua 1:5). Believe the word, always think the word, and build your confidence in it to stop the fear. Greater is He that is in you (I John 4:4). He that watches over you never sleeps nor slumbers (Psalm 121:4). He Is always with you. Jesus said we should not be afraid of the devil or death (Matthew 10:28). Jesus has swallowed death in victory. You shall not die but live to declare God’s glory.

PRAYER: LORD, STRENGTHEN ME TO BUILD CONFIDENCE IN YOUR WORD.

“MOST THINGS WE ARE AFRAID OF ARE WHAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN”

Jesus earned this office by becoming the sacrificial Lamb of God for the salvation and redemption of man (Phil. 2:7-11). Therefore, every citizen of the kingdom of God must be followers and disciples of Jesus.

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.

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.
