BEWARE OF BORROWING  Romans 13:7-10 Devotional:- Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. (V. 8) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional BEWARE OF BORROWING Support Us Romans 13:7-10 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com It is easy for man to quickly think of borrowing, but it is always difficult to pay back. We therefore need to know that it is not normal to keep borrowing in life. A way out is the understanding of God’s pattern for our life. So that we will not serve under the burden of debt all the days of our lives (Proverbs 22:7) We need to understand that God supply materials to us as needed at a time. Whatever you have today is God’s provision; what he expects you to prudently plan and manage very well. If you therefore go and borrow, you are only showing an i...

BACK TO SCHOOL

Ecclesiastes 10:10-15
Devotional:- “If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success” (v.10) NKJV.

    Do you know that there can be no effective flight if there is no good ground or a kind of background from which the flying object will take off? One of the components for a good foundation for taking off in life is education or skill development. Some people often think that education is just about obtaining a certificate that enables them to find employment. So they tell themselves, “I am not looking for work, so I don’t need education”. I am doing my business, so I don't need education. But is this true?

The scripture we read today says if an axe is dull and unsharpened, there will be a need to apply more strength before it can perform, but skill will bring success. Listen, the major purpose of education is to build your mind skillfully. It is like sharpening your axe or cutlass to work better for you. So, no matter what your business, trade or career is, if you are not going to remain on a spot, you need to go back to school. You could be informed by attending seminars, reading books, or going back to sit under lecturers in the school. The main among them is searching for and sitting with a relevant book till you gain a better understanding of what you are doing.

This will build your skills for effectiveness. Skill is the ability to do something with speed and accuracy. This will make you overtake your equals. Illiteracy is a disease. Education will open you to more opportunities. If the governor of your state needs a fashion designer, for example, only the educated will win the contract. Don’t remain a servant of your junior forever. You are not too old to be back in school to pursue that career, it could be the only thing you need to cross into your next level. Decide to progress and you will find grace. 

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO HUMBLE MYSELF TO LEARN.

“THE SKILLFUL WILL ALWAYS BE THE NEEDED AT THE TOP”

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.
