  DECIDE TO SUCCEED 1 Chronicles 4:1-10 Devotional:- “And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, "Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!" So God granted him what he requested” (v. 10) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional DECIDE TO SUCCEED Support Us 1 Chronicles 4:1-10 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com The decisions of a man will determine what he will eventually become in life. No one decides to fail and then suddenly succeed. People succeed because they choose and decide to succeed. In the scriptures we read today, there was a break in history as generations of people are mentioned. Why this break? This is because a man’s decision changes his status. There was no such pause on many ot...

SLEEP ABUSE

SLEEP ABUSE

Proverbs 6:6-11
Devotional:- “How long will you slumber, O sluggard? When will you rise from your sleep?” (V.9) NKJV

    Today, we talk so much about drug abuse because of its evil effects on the lives, making people live abnormal lives. It could affect the mind and make people lose control of their lives. But little do we often talk about other things we abuse in life that could also bring life and destiny to a total disarray. One of such is excessive sleeping.

Just like men could become addicted to drugs, so also can sleep. Just like drugs could be detrimental to life, so also is excessive sleeping. When you consider the purpose of sleep, it is to have a wonderful effect on the body. It reactivates our mental and physical strength. It replaces lost energy. It relaxes our entire system and reorganizes it for better performance. 

As good as its functions, as bad it can turn to a man when it is abused or taken as pleasure. This could turn into a terrible habit. God’s word says, A little sleep, a little slumber, so poverty comes into the life of many. Friend, stop celebrating sleep. Discipline yourself. Be aware that your destiny could also be awake.  Stop sleeping over six or seven hours on average. No one receives a benefit for excessive sleeping. This is your year of progress. Move yourself out of slumber. And your entire life shall resurrect.

PRAYER: LORD, HELP ME TO BE DELIVERED FROM EXCESSIVE SLEEPING.

“THE COMPETITION OF SLEEP IS ONLY REWARDED WITH THE AWARD OF POVERTY”

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...
