SEEKING THE LORD   Matthew 2:1-11 Devotional:- "Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem” (V. 1) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SEEKING THE LORD Support Us Matthew 2:1-11 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com The enemy of man, the devil, always wants to steal the human attention away from God. No man can live a worthy life without God. With all our knowledge and labour, if God does not crown it with his help, all will still be in vain (Psalm 127:1–2). This then brings the need for God in your life. If you want to live without God, your life will be full of sorrow and regrets.   The three wise men in our scripture sought the Lord as soon as they were aware of his birth; they denied themselves, left everything and ...

PRODUCT OF SIN

PRODUCT OF SIN

James 1:9-18
Devotional:- “Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.” (V. 15) NKJV

    Believers should be careful not to fill their minds with the mentality of sin. There are some facts we need to know about this so that we are not ignorant of the devices of the devil. Then the devil will not find it easy to outwit us in Jesus' name (2 Corinthians 2:11). What pushes most great men into the traps of sin are what could easily be avoided, but they became victims of it through their ignorance.

The scripture we read today gives us the process and products of sin, so that at any level we are in the process, we can always resist the flesh to discontinue because it will put us into the trap. God’s word says, God doesn’t tempt anyone with evil (sin), but everyone is tempted by their lust and enticed. This means that sin commences in the heart of men when they start to have wrong thoughts and desires for the things of the flesh. As this is not curbed, it soon develops into an enticement that is uncontrollable, then gives birth to sin. And sin gives birth to death (2 Corinthians 6:16-18). Death in this context talks about separation from God, which, if not corrected, could now lead to eternal separation from God in hell.  Why is it this hard? May I let you know that any activity of sin is an act of the devil, manipulating people to disobey God. Sin is not just behaviour (1 John 3:8). Please understand that light and darkness do not coexist, so also God and the devil cannot co-dwell in your heart.

Friend, you can therefore kill the seed of sin, which is wrong desire, rather than struggling with its fruit when it begins to manifest, so that it does not lead you to trials or temptation. You are going far, do not let sin hinder your journey. And you will soon arrive at your destination of glory.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO ALWAYS CHOOSE TO OBEY YOU NO MATTER WHAT.

“IF SIN COULD PROLONG YOUR JOURNEY, THEN YOU SHOULD DESTROY ITS SEED”

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.
