BEWARE OF BORROWING  Romans 13:7-10 Devotional:- Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law. (V. 8) NKJV 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional BEWARE OF BORROWING Support Us Romans 13:7-10 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com It is easy for man to quickly think of borrowing, but it is always difficult to pay back. We therefore need to know that it is not normal to keep borrowing in life. A way out is the understanding of God’s pattern for our life. So that we will not serve under the burden of debt all the days of our lives (Proverbs 22:7) We need to understand that God supply materials to us as needed at a time. Whatever you have today is God’s provision; what he expects you to prudently plan and manage very well. If you therefore go and borrow, you are only showing an i...

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”

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.
