WALKING WITH GOD   Genesis 17:1-8 Devotional:- “When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him, 'I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.” (v. 1) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional WALKING WITH GOD Support Us Genesis 17:1-8 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Sometimes we become too mindful of the enemy and pay no attention to the covenant of God for our lives. Sometimes our challenges make us lose focus on God. We need to realise that this is the trick of the devil. He only wants to smartly disconnect us from our source. And a river that is disconnected from its source will soon dry up.   Abraham was looking for his own way to make things happen in his life and started losing focus on God by getting another wife to fulfil the promise of God. He was try...

NO SHOW

2 Kings 20:12-21 
Devotional:- “And Hezekiah was attentive to them, and showed them all the house of his treasures-the silver and gold, the spices and precious ointment, and all his armoury-all that was found among his treasures. There was nothing in his house or in all his dominion that Hezekiah did not show them” (v. 13) NKJV. 

    A great problem in the lives of many people is the spirit of show-off. The fundamental reason why they do everything is that people may see their glory and beauty, so any little opportunity they have, they will use to display that all men may see. If you see how some sit in their car and cross their legs on the dashboard.

You will know that they can’t go too far. This has been the trick that has held many down for a long time, and many who had been up before have been brought down. Since your season to rise has come, you have to be careful of the spirit of show-off.

The reason why this spirit brought many people down was that they unwisely exposed themselves to the enemy. That is why God’s word says, Be sober: be vigilant, for the enemy is looking for whom to devour (1 Peter 5:8). The king we read about today has been greatly helped by God to gather much wealth during his rulership. But the devil smartly sneaked into his life and he offended God.

Watch out, friend, don’t expose yourself to the enemy. Rather, give glory to God. Show-off is a product of pride and ego, which God is against. If you intend to keep flying in life, then humble yourself. Do not choose to show. Stop throwing parties for a waste. Let wisdom guide your heart. Stop pretending to be where you are not (Proverbs 13:7). It will often make you lie to please men and displease God. Watch out!

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO CHOOSE TO PLEASE YOU RATHER THAN TO PLEASE MEN.

“LIFE IS TO BE APPRECIATED AND NOT FOR UNDUE CELEBRATION”

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 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...
