  KINGDOM FIRST Matthew 6:25-34 Devotional:- “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you” (v.33) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional KINGDOM FIRST Support Us Matthew 6:25-34 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com   To reign in this wicked world, believers must understand the mystery of living a ‘kingdom first’ life. It is our lack of understanding of this teaching of Jesus Christ that has brought most of the frustrations to the lives of believers. Many of us also want to live like the people of the world around us. We have forgotten that the Spirit in us is not of the world. (John 17:14).   What is this mystery? It is a mystery of focusing and spending our lives on God’s purposes for our lives above all things to bring glory to God. The Bible says, ...

FAN TO FLAME

FAN TO FLAME

II Timothy 1:3-7
Devotional:- For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands” (v.6) NIV 

    It's a terrible thing to see that men are wasting than most plants and animals are. This is because men will not take the time to exploit the strength in themselves, but keep exploiting other things around them. Inside any man you see is great potential, gifts and the grace of God.

The purpose for which He has created man was to come to the world to subdue the earth. This can be interpreted as bringing the unfinished work of God to a glorious completion (Hebrews 11:40).

To be able to carry out this great task, He has put in all of us the adequate potential. But it is the responsibility of each one to learn to fan to flame the gift of God in our lives. It is the manifestation of this gift in our lives that will distinguish us and make ways for us among the greats (Proverbs 18:16).

The Scripture we read today offered us a process through which our gifts and potential can begin to manifest for our greatness. And this is by fanning it to flame, that is, stirring up. This is just like blowing or fanning a little fire amid charcoal till it all catches flame. Three things can help you fan your gift to fame. These are the words of God, prayer and service. The word of God is like fire (Jer. 23:29). The prayer strengthens us to operate in the spirit (Acts 4:31), and service helps us exercise our gift to maturity. As you serve the Lord in His house and everywhere, you shall be discovered and excel in God’s grace upon your life. In that house, school, office or church, give yourself to service and your glory shall soon be discovered, your portion shall be delivered.

Prayer: Lord, expose the richness inside me.

“WHAT WILL TURN YOU GREAT IS ALREADY INSIDE YOU BUT CAN ONLY BE DISCOVERED AS YOU FAN IT TO FLAME”

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...
