JOY

  JOY John 16:16-24  Devotional:- “Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will be turned into joy.” (V. 20) NKJV God’s word says when sorrow endures till a night, joy comes in the morning (Psalms 30:5). This is an assurance and evidence that what is called sorrow is not a permanent situation in the life of a child of God. This is because it is certain that when a night comes, morning is always the next. The night is evidence of the coming morning. This is evidence that what you are going through right now will soon result in joy. In fact, the tougher it is, the closer the joy. May you see it. The scripture we read today gave us a new dimension of hope in our lives. Jesus said, our sorrow shall turn to joy. That which we think is a thing of sorrow shall suddenly become a thing of joy. Jesus likens it to a woman who is in labour. Women in this state often feel as if the end has come. But ...

TEST OF GIVING

What Does the Bible Say about Giving?TEST OF GIVING

Genesis 22:1-18
Devotional v1

Everyone who will prosper by the Lord God of Abraham will be tested especially in their area of giving. Most people don’t like to hear about giving because they feel they don’t have. Others on what they have and not on God. These are all because people don’t have the understanding of the ways of God (Isaiah 55:8-9). From the beginning of life to the end giving will remain one of the major tests of God for people to step into their prosperity.
 
You need to know that God is the owner of all things visible or invisible (Psalm 24:1). He provided all things in the world for the benefits of man. In the plan of God, all men are His focus. He always looks out for distributors. He does not have a bank so he always trusts His riches int to the hands of men who can reach all others in their families, in their communities or in the house of God. Before you will be enlisted for more, God will test you with the little (Luke 16:10-13). God had to test Abraham with one child before giving him a nation. 
Friend, be careful to stop seeing giving as been unjust to you at the level of your life. You must be willing to demonstrate your willingness to give every time, God is instructing before you can be trusted with more (Luke 16:10-13). Stop seeing giving as reducing you but an act of obedience to God for more. Everyone feels the pain of giving but not receiving (Psalm 126:5-6). Before understanding that this is the way of God and you will prosper. Peace.
Prayer:- Lord, give me the deep understanding of giving 
“No giving, no prosperity”
