SEATED WITH CHRIST  Ephesians 2:1-8 Devotional:- “…and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus..” (v.6)   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional SEATED WITH CHRIST Support Us Ephesians 2:1-8 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com No man can operate delegated authority until he is sure of his status spiritually and mentally. Authority itself is not always physical, so if you can receive and resume into it by faith, you can see it working for you. So, men of authority must be men of faith who believe that what the law says they are is what they really are. They must throw away their past personal view of themselves and assume the office the law gives to them.   One of the offices that the word of God, the law of the universe, gives to you is to be seated with Christ in the ...

REACTIONS

2 Samuel 16:5-14
Devotional:- “Also Shimei said thus when he cursed: "Come out! Come out! You bloodthirsty man, you rogue!” (V.7) NKJV

    One of the attitudes that proves a man’s maturity is the ability to handle reactions. When the Bible tells us to be careful of sin that may add weight on our lives, reaction is one of such (Hebrews 12:1). It can stop your race to glory.

Reactions are human behaviour in response to our actions. If they are allowed, they could make one suddenly pack out of his/her home, divorce their spouse, or resign from office. It wearies one from taking bold steps and stops being good or even resigning from life.

David was a mature man of God, and so handling reactions was not a problem for him. Going through a time of challenges this time, a man took advantage of that to curse and insult him. Yet he knew how to handle reactions. And this kept him from sinning, and he eventually had his victory.

I don’t know what people have done to you that tempted you to react terribly. Probably you’ve even done good for someone who is now repaying you with evil, or your effort has been disregarded, and you are discouraged. Yet God expects you to be mature in handling this. The ability to handle reactions is a pointer to your understanding and readiness for glory (Luke 23:34).

Please understand that it is normal for people to sometimes misbehave (Romans 3:10, 13-18). When men encourage you, take it as God speaking through them. But when they mean to pre-judge you, don’t forget that no one has the right to give final statement about you but God (Romans 8:33-34). When they pre-judge you, they are doing what only God should have done, but God is your creator. He has no bad intention against you (Jeremiah 29:11). Please disregard human pre-judgment and continue to live your life. That shows who you are before God. And you will see your glory notwithstanding.

PRAYER: LORD, I THANK YOU, FOR YOU NEED NO HUMAN COUNSEL TO DETERMINE MY LIFE.

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...
