  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.

     People who value and give themselves to fellowship with God are always enjoying the blessings of righteousness. This is because God’s presence gives us access into divine instruction in righteousness, and we also enjoy grace to obey the Lord. As a result of our constant fellowship with God, we enjoy His presence with us. There, He hides us under the shadow of His feathers. This makes us to be untouchable to the enemy. God becomes a wall all around us and members of our family.

      This was what Job enjoyed as we've read in the word of God. God said to the devil, “my servant Job is righteous before me, but the devil said it is because of the divine protection and favour Job enjoys from God”. These two fold blessing will always be found with the righteous, divine protection and favour (Psalms 5:12). The grace to walk in the righteousness of God is contacted in fellowship with God (Matthew 6:33).

      Friend, it’s important that you stop allowing excuses of “there is no time” create time to fellowship with your creator regularly. And you will start to enjoy His protection on all you have and his favour in all your ways. Peace.
 
PRAYER: Lord, make me a seeker of your righteousness
