HONOUR YOUR PARENTS Ephesians 6:1-4 Devotional:- "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with promise (V. 2) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional HONOURING YOUR PARENTS Support Us Ephesians 6:1-4 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com At some stage in life, there is a tendency to start forgetting our parents: to pay attention to our own lives and new family. But without our parents, you would not have come into being at all, so the Bible demands that they should never be forgotten. Some people grew up to turn their parents into their personal enemy; most women wouldn’t like attention to be given to their in-laws. When the Lord blesses some people, they now see their parents as not fit to come into their homes for visitation. These are tricks of the devil to cheat us and deceive us. It is our covenant...

UNFORGIVENESS

UNFORGIVENESS

Matthew 18:21-36
Devotional:- “Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?” (V. 33) NKJV

    Sometimes it is painful when we have to forgive someone who has done something hurtful to us. This is because we believe he had done it out of a wicked heart and needs to be repaid with the right coin. That is why some people will even go to the point of physical combat. That is, they want to punish their offenders. Because of unforgiveness, best friends have been separated, many marriages have suffered divorce, and we have despised people who could be of blessing and help to us. If God were dealing with us how we deal with others, we would no longer be alive. If men were God, they would have killed all men.

The story we read today talks about a servant that was forgiven so much by his master but he did not forgive his fellow servant. That is the lifestyle of the flesh (Galatians 5:19-21). God will not also forgive them (Matt.6 14-15). To overcome unforgiveness there is a need to know that it is a sin and a work of the flesh. And we can’t correct a sinner when we are also sinning. Two wrongs will never make a right. You must put your flesh under the control of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:16). To overcome the flesh you must keep silencing or put to death the deeds of the flesh (Colossians 3:5). If you cannot forgive others, you cage yourself and lose your freedom of joy. It could even cause you sickness. This is because it grows bitterness in the heart and bitterness produces tension. You also need to know that if you will not forgive, God will not forgive you of your sins (Matthew 6:14). Then how shall you escape? God has taught me to forgive men even before they offend me. Besides, I have realized that people offend others out of their ignorance. Jesus says, Father, forgive them for they know not what they are doing (Luke 23:34). Whatever that person did was done because of his low level of understanding. No matter what anyone or group of people has done to you, release them. Don’t hold them for ransom to ruin your life and destiny; you could be locking up your miracles. But as you release others you also will be released. And you Will experience a great peace in your heart. Your glorious destiny is about to unfold. You won’t miss it.

PRAYER: LORD, RELEASE YOUR GRACE OF FORGIVENESS UPON ME.

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.
