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...

A FRIEND

John 15:13-17
Devotional:- “...but have call you friends, for all things that I heard of my father have made known to you” (V. 15)

    Many times, we are deceived by what we are passing through or the news we hear daily to think God does not love us. But these are tricks of the devil to put the minds of our glorious right in Christ Jesus. The major reason for people suffering in the body of Christ is the enemy using the weapon of ignorance. Even when the truth of the word of God is told to some people they don’t believe. This is because they have been programmed to believe the lies of the enemy (John 8:44).

In the scripture we read today, Jesus calls you friend. This may sound unreligious, but it is the truth. A religious man will ask, How could a mortal man make friendship with his creator? They’ve forgotten that even God called Abraham His friend (II Corinthians 20:7). To be a friend to someone means you are important and desirable to that person. This is someone who loves to come around you and who feels excited when you are with him. This is someone who wants you to be free in sharing and caring for one another.

I need to let you know that you have the spirit of God in you. So you cannot but be His friend, for you cannot but reason or act like Him. Since you have His Spirit, God finds it safe to call a man like you His friend. So please be free to share with Him. When He speaks to you, don’t feel inferior. He wants to enjoy your friendship. That is why you should always read His love letters to you, which are the word of God. That is why you should always take time to be with Him in fellowship, both personally and collectively with the church. Make sure He is the first and the last you think of in each day of your life. And your life shall find all His grace for greatness.

Prayer: Lord, help me to appreciate and enjoy your friendship.

“THE SWEETNESS OF FRIENDSHIP IS IN SHARING TOGETHER.”

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...
