  IN HIS WILL    2 Corinthians 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother” (v.1) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional IN HIS WILL Support Us 2 Corinthians 1:1-9 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Sometimes when we are faced with persecutions or trial, we ask if God has called us. Some even condemn themselves and comment that God has left them. At such time many Christians just go about as though God is no more for them. In such cases, the devil wants to take advantage and bring discouragement and frustration. Sometimes when our expected result is not forth coming we found ourselves in this shoe.   Whatever the case may be, no matter how worst the circumstances may be, make sure you are in the centre of the will of God.

SUCCESS AND YOUR PURPOSE

SUCCESS YOUR PURPOSE


2 Timothy 4:1-8

Devotional:- “And now the prize awaits me-the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (V. 8) NLT


When a person turns to the Lord, invite Jesus to his/her life, and surrender to Jesus as Lord and saviour, then he/she sincerely becomes a Christian. This is the state many in the church has not attained. Many struggle to surrender their lives to the Lord because they are afraid of failure, not able to trust God to give them success, and their love for the things of this world (1 John 2:15-17). When you sincerely surrender your life to Jesus Christ, your view of success cannot but change.

Apostle Paul said, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful” (2 Timothy 4:7). When you start to live for God, your definition of success will change from materials to purpose. Living for the material achievement are temporal, but living in achievement of your purpose on earth gives you an eternal heritage with God. This is living to achieve the purpose for which you were made. As children of God, we should see all our pursuit as a means of bringing glory to God (1 Corinthians 10:31). Our achievements should be used to help us to fulfill our purpose. This is fulfilling your destiny.

Friends, to achieve material success is normal for us as children of God. This is because we seek to bear the fruits of the Spirit which are the factors needed to acquire the worldly things (Galatians 5:22-23); This is because the grace of God will help us as we dream to achieve them (2 Corinthians 9:8); This is because, we are happy and contempt with what God has given us as we move from level to level (1 Timothy 6:6-10); So, we are living a joyful life. We are instructed to seek first the things that pertain to our eternity (Matthew 6:33). Our success therefore is fulfilling our purpose on earth. In this new year, seek to fulfill the purpose of God for your life and you will find the part of success both here and in eternity.


Prayer: Lord, give me understanding for my success

“WHEN YOU ARE LIVING FOR GOD, THE THINGS OF THE WORLD WILL LIVE FOR YOU”

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   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.
