SEATED WITH CHRIST  Ephesians 2:1-8 Devotional:- “…and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus..” (v.6)   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SEATED WITH CHRIST Support Us Ephesians 2:1-8 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com No man can operate delegated authority until he is sure of his status spiritually and mentally. Authority itself is not always physical, so if you can receive and resume into it by faith, you can see it working for you. So, men of authority must be men of faith who believe that what the law says they are is what they really are. They must throw away their past personal view of themselves and assume the office the law gives to them.   One of the offices that the word of God, the law of the universe, gives to you is to be seated with Christ in the ...

OVERCOMING OPPRESSION

OVERCOMING OPPRESSION

Luke 9:37-42
Devotional:- “And as he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the child, and gave him back to his father” (V. 42) NKJV

    One force or the other often oppresses people today.  The devil knows how to torment people secretly. In most cases, only the victims know what they are going through. Precisely, it is the spirit of the devil that oppresses humans. Many have been robbed of good sleep and rest. Others don’t enjoy being alive anymore. The boy we read about today was also under the oppression of the devil. This force made him fall down and sometimes threw him inside fire. This force disgraced him everywhere by making him fall to the ground and foam in the mouth. Such disease will even make some roll on the floor in public or make them scratch their body with stones.

To overcome an oppressive spirit, a man needs to be delivered by a superior power, the power of God. A man can get delivered by being determined to divorce the devil and all his work in the name of Jesus. This can be done by the assistance of the Holy Spirit not minding the reaction of the devil. But that is not enough, Jesus said, when a spirit is cast out, it will always come back to check if it can find a space to stay. And except it found a stronger spirit in the heart of the person, it will come back again in seven folds (Mathew 12:43-45)

This demands that you build yourself strong in the Lord. The problem with many is that they don’t want to be tormented but they don’t also want to be strong in the Lord. To be strong, you need to be baptized with the Holy Spirit. Grow up your faith in the word of God. Cultivate a lifestyle of personal and collective fellowship with God, and walk in total obedience to God to earn boldness to resist the devil (Proverbs 28:1). Ingratitude is always at the root of every depression. Always purge your heart with the blood of Jesus and be thankful. Be strong in the Lord (Ephesians 6:10). Know that the devil is a liar. Whatever he tells you is not true (John 8:44). Stop being afraid of him and your life shall experience total liberty in Jesus Christ.

PRAYER: LORD, GRANT ME STRENGTH TO OVERCOME EVERY OPPRESSIVE SPIRIT.

“IT TAKES A STRONGER POWER TO OPPRESS THE WEAK”

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). 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.

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...
