  OUTWIT  2 Corinthians 2:3-11 Devotional:- “Lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices” (v.11) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional OUTWIT Support Us 2 Corinthians 2:3-11 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com   Many times, we allow the devil to play on our intelligence. So he just finds it easy to walk in and out of our lives. But it is high time we start to outwit him in all instances. Many Christians up till now are still ignorant of the devices of the devil. Since we have the Spirit of God, the enemy should not outwit us.   For the devil to outwit a man is for him to outsmart him. How does he do this? He tricks some into little sins and stands to condemn them before God. So you must be wiser and forsake little, little lies, boasting, excessive talk, unforgiveness,...

TERRIBLE BOSS

TERRIBLE BOSS 

I Samuel 22:9-19
Devotional:- “Then the king said to the guards who stood about him, "Turn and kill the priests of the LORD, because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled and did not tell it to me." But the servants of the king would not lift their hands to strike the priests of the Lord” (V.17) NKJV

    People who do not understand leadership principles or work in it and yet are leaders are often found as bosses. Such people are not there to lead others by example but to destroy the company with their office. They are not ready to serve but only want to lord over others. They have no good plan for their company or nation but they are selfish in their thinking. There is nothing such people cannot do when the power is in their hands.

Some Christians find themselves in an office with such people in leadership and that becomes a challenge for such a child of God. Such Christians could be sent on any wrong assignment that would be against their faith. Such is King Saul we read about today. He was so terrible that he did not see it as wickedness to kill the priest of God. But some people under him still have the fear of God and they will not join in this evil

As a child of God, if you are faced with this kind of challenge around you, what you need to do is ask for the wisdom of God to relate with such a leader successfully. Let them know you as a child of God who will not compromise with unrighteousness. That will create a limit to the extent they will want to get you involved in their act. Always commit such leaders to the hand of the Lord. When you are to work with such a leader, pray that God clothe you with His fear and glory. Pray that the Lord will touch his heart before you get to him (Proverbs 21:1). Humble yourself also, but firm. Then you will see the goodness of the Lord. While others are shouted on, you will be humbly welcomed. Don’t join anyone to do evil because he is your boss. God will make you special to him. He will be afraid of God in you and you will be flourishing in famine.

PRAYER: LORD, GIVE ME THE WISDOM TO STAND NOTWITHSTANDING.

“WITH THE WISDOM OF GOD, EVEN THE WICKED WILL HONOUR YOU”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14).

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...
