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...

PRIDE

Luke 18:9-14
Devotional:- “I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted” (v.14) NKJV. 

    Many people do not understand that when God is absent from whatever we do, we make success far from ourselves. When a man is prospering in a godly way, it is just because God is backing him. One of the things that can push God out of the life of anyone is pride. The only kind of people that God will always release grace for increase to are the humble (James 4:6).

Our scripture today taught us to always be humble. This is what will make us acceptable before the Lord. And since he accepts us, he will surely prosper us. A Pharisee came to pray and began to boast in his righteousness. But a tax collector realised his state before the Lord and was not proud but humble. And Jesus said he went home justified, that is, he went home acceptable and approved of God.

God’s word says, “God opposes the proud (i.e., He stands on their way of progress) but gives grace to the humble. Humble yourself therefore under God’s mighty hand, that we may lift you in due time” (1 Peter 5:5-6). No matter how high a man may be, pride will bring him down (Daniel 4:36-37; Proverbs 11:2). It is always the trick of the devil to destroy our lifting, so avoid it.

Friend, humble yourself that God may exalt you. This is the reason for the delay in the destiny of many people today. Do not let anyone push you to be proud. Please value others and be careful with the way you talk to them. Some don’t always talk but are proud in heart (Matthew 5:3,6). Value your life and be humble so that God may add value to you. You will enjoy God’s grace from now on.

PRAYER: LORD, DESTROY THE SPIRIT OF PRIDE IN ME THAT IT MAY NOT DESTROY ME.

GOD’S WAY TO THE TOP IS BY BEING ABASED”

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...
