MEMBERS OF HIS BODY  Ephesians 5:21-33 Devotional:- “ For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones. ” (V.30) NKJV . 🎙 Victory Daily Devotional MEMBERS OF HIS BODY Support Us Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Ephesians 5:21-33 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com Believers need to know that God’s word calls us members of the body of Christ. There are so many clubs in this world that men are proud to be part of. This is because being a member of such a club entitles them to some benefit. It entitles them to some privileges and earns them great respect. Membership of such a club is not picked on the floor. It takes some process and commitment to achieve it. Much more than this , God’s word says we are members of the body of Christ. When I see some believers, not mindful of thei...

GIVING

GIVING John 3:13-21 Devotional:- “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (V. 16).      One of the major responsibilities to cultivate in a good relationship is giving. This is very foundational; because it is on it every good relationship is built. Without it, no relationship will stand. People don’t often want to part with what they have, but love is the virtue that can draw it out. Most people treat their income as their life, but love is sharing our lives with others.

BE AN EXAMPLE

BE AN EXAMPLE 1 Timothy 4:11-16 Devotional:- Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity” ( V. 12 ).      Everyone involved in relationship should seek to be an example. To be an example is to be a model for what is right in the relationship. It is not enough for us to know or always say what we ought to do or be doing in our relationship. It is very important that we become doer of what we are saying. If you will not do what you are saying, nobody will do it. The right mind-set is that, I must be in front to do what I am asking others to do and not just do as I say.

RESPONSIBILITY

RESPONSIBILITY 1 John 3:11-17 Devotional:- “By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren” ( V. 16 )      Building a healthy relationship demands that each party is responsible. In a situation where a partner is not responsible, it can frustrate the one that is responsible. This is exactly the way we treat God a lot of time. Man is always discouraged by the devil not to be responsible towards God. Whenever we have needs, we always want God to be responsible towards us, but not us being responsible to God. This is always the bone of contention between man and God. To be responsible is to always carry out part of the relationship deal.

COMMITMENT

COMMITMENT Romans 12:9-21 “Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another” (V. 10)      Most people want good home but do not want to pay the price for it. One of the major prices for a good relationship is commitment to each other. The parties must all embrace the spirit of commitment. Everyone is committed in one place or the other. If a man or woman is not committed to his or her spouse, he/she is committed to someone else somewhere. It is therefore very important for each member to be committed to each other.

TRADING THE FLESH

TRADING THE FLESH Romans 8:1-11 Devotional:- “For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace (v. 6)            A major challenge of most relationship is our ‘self”. Each one is always trying to display and uphold his “self”. This causes much rift whenever any family is settling dispute or disagreements. It is also important that we remember that when we give our life to Jesus, we gave out our self and take his life. The flesh or self is the mind-set of our culture, tradition and nature. So as children of God we can no longer allow the flesh or our canal mind or self to rule our lives or ruin our relationship (Romans 6:14)

CULTURE

CULTURE Genesis 46:28-34 Devotional:- “That you shall say, “Your servants’ occupation has been with Livestock from our youth even till now, both we and also our fathers,’ that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians” (V. 34)      In managing our differences, one aspect we have to confront is cultural differences. These are differences resulting from our tribes and their nature. In some tribes, they eat some kind of food that is a taboo to another tribe. Some tribe wears some kind of dresses that is opposite of the other and so on. Apart from language differences, there are much difference from culture to culture. So, this becomes a strong factor to manage if our relationship will work successfully.

TEMPERAMENT

TEMPERAMENT Genesis 25:19-28 Devotional:- “So the boys grew. And Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field; but Jacob was a mild man, dwelling in tents” (V. 27)      Everyone picks his temperamental nature from the parents. This is therefore, being passed to us through the blood. Since it is in our blood, it becomes our permanent nature. Temperamental nature is therefore one of the major factors to work on to make two to become one. Each temperamental nature has advantages and disadvantages. God consciously allow us to have these differences to create varieties in our world. If all of us behave the same way, the whole world will be boring.

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.

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.
