  START FROM THERE   2 Kings 4:1-7 Devotional:- “So Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?" And she said, "Your maidservant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil”” (v.2) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional START FROM THERE Support Us 2 Kings 4:1-7 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of the tricks the devil wants to employ on us is to always make us unnecessary feeling inadequate. He is always making us to think we don’t have what we need to succeed. That is why most people often think if they have so, so and so then they would have been able to make it. But if we want to face the reality of life, right in our hands and heart lies what can make us succeed. It is true that we need the help and favour of God. But they will only catch up with us when we are us...

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.

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.
