  BE COURAGEOUS  Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.” (v.6) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional BE COURAGEOUS Support Us Joshua 1:1-9 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com A vegetative lifestyle cannot rule in the realm of the spirit. It takes strength and courage. Many people are yet to understand that this world is not a place for the weak and discouraged. You need to know that if you are defeated in life, no one has lost but you. So you need to change your approach to life.   Friend, no king rules without exercising power. And it is not exercised by the weak. This crocodile-tear approach to life will take you nowhere. Blaming this or that will not help you anyway. You n...

NATURE OF LOVE

 NATURE OF LOVE


I Corinthians 13:1-8 

Devotional:- "suffers long and is kind .. does not envy.. does not parade itself…” (V. 4).


Since men do not have the actual understanding of love, they turn it into lust. And now it is lust most people call love. It is the reason for most frustration and discouragement today. The scripture we read today revealed to us the true nature of love. It reveals to us that no man’s service shall be acceptable or profitable until he puts in love (v. 1-3). The beautiful thing about the nature oflove is that it is the nature of God, for God is love (1 John 4:8). And if God dwells in us, love should also be demonstrated in us.

The scripture says, love suffers long, that is why God loves to forgive his own people. Several times we have turned away from him, yet He does not turn away from us. He still looks for us. So also we should do for all we love. Love is kind, and that is why God has been kind to us. He doesn’t condemn us; He wants us to repent (Ezekiel 18:23). His kindness has blessed us with all that we have. Not that we qualify, but that He is kind. So also we should do to others.

Love does not envy anyone; it rather rejoices with them. It does not show off or puff up. He does not behave rudely. He is not selfish; He is not provoked nor thinks evil. He does not rejoice at others falling. It endures, believes in others and is hopeful in others. God believes and has hope in you. He never writes you off. He knows you will make it at last. And this is what you should demonstrate to others also. Your joy shall soon be full.


Prayer: Lord, help me to start to truly love.

“YOUR CHARACTER IS THE PROOF OF YOUR LOVE”

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...
