PLEASING THE LORD     Proverbs 16:4-8 Devotional:- “When a man's ways please the LORD, He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.” (V. 7) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional PLEASING THE LORD Support Us Proverbs 16:4-8 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com It is commonly said that he that goes about trying to please everybody will end up not pleasing any. While you are trying to please people, you end up offending them. So you think you are doing them good, but they think you are doing them evil. This is because different people have different ways of looking at things. You have therefore resorted to doing your best and leaving the rest. But do you know that in the course of doing your best you create an enemy for yourself? And they now begin to stand against you. The best way to thc approach the af...

FEAR OF GOD

Genesis 39:7-16
Devotional:- “There is no one greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?” (v.9) NKJV

    Wherever the Holy Spirit is, He has seven major dimensions by which he manifests if He is allowed. One of the dimensions is putting in the believer the Spirit of the fear of God. This is not a fear of God because He is wicked but because we know His greatness, love, and we love Him. Do you know that because a man loves his wife, he will not always like to do what offends her except for correction, which is even to be done in love? So also believers operate in the fear of God because he loves the Lord (John 14:23). If you see a believer rising and falling, it is because the fear of God is not in place. It is because the Spirit of God is not allowed to operate in his/her life.

As for you, I know you will not hinder the Holy Spirit from working in you. Solomon described the fear of God as the first step to wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). This is because whatever is against God’s will, will not stand (Proverbs 21:30). People could think that stealing is gaining, but the truth is that such will attract the destruction of God (Proverbs 13:11). That is why you must activate God’s Spirit in you by asking in prayers.

If Joseph had slept with that woman, do you know that the woman could rent a duplex for him outside, to continue the relationship and to keep it from the husband? Then Joseph would not have been in prison nor have found the man who introduced him to the palace (Genesis 39-40) Watch out! Don’t think it is smart to continue in sin (Romans 6:1). You need to activate the Spirit of the fear of the Lord in you. And you shall be able to get to your place in Jesus name.

PRAYER: LORD, LET THE SPIRIT OF THE FEAR OF THE LORD BE AT WORK IN MY LIFE.

“THE FEAR OF GOD IS THE FOUNDATION TO ALL LASTING RISING”

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.
