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 ...

 OBEDIENCE

Acts 13:42-52
Devotional:- “And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.” (v.52) NKJV

A great instrument that can sustain joy in the life of God’s children is obedience. When a man disobey God, the enemy just strategically makes him lose his right decision. The devil has just made him follow a wrong path and shunned his part in God’s help and provision. So he cannot help but experience sorrow and regret at last. Many don’t just know why they have sorrow. They do not know that they are created by God for God (Isaiah 43:21). So when man disobeys, it is life out of course (Psalms 82:5).

The disciples were led by the Holy Spirit to send Paul and Barnabas on an assignment for God (Acts 13:1-3). But as they went on their journey for God’s assignment, they were confronted with persecution by the Jews. Yet, they had great joy. This was not the joy of success but of obedience that they were walking in the will of the Father.

See, an obedient servant will always enjoy liberty and joy. It is often produced by fulfilment. You will notice that when you do what is expected of you, you just experience a sense of accomplishment. So, as a believer, you will be able to retain a life of joy when you keep obeying God (Matthew 25:21). No matter your status today, be careful not to continue to disobey the Lord, so that you don’t lose your joy.

Prayer: Lord, help me to keep obeying your word.
“FAITHFUL SERVANTS ARE ALWAYS JOYFUL SERVANTS

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.
