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 ...

CARRYING HIS WORDS      

Jeremiah 1:1-10
Devotional Verse - “Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: "Behold, I have put My words in your mouth” (V. 9)
 
      One of the greatest beauties of fellowshipping regularly in the presence of God is the blessing of having his words in your mouth. When such people open their mouth, the right word naturally flows out. Without this, no one will find it easy to speak the word of God before the crowd or in the public. This is a deep mystery of God that you will be speaking as though a tape or CD is been played from your inside. You cannot also totally explain how you are making up the vocabulary. This is not a manifestation of the act of public speaking. This is God speaking through you.
    God said to Jeremiah, I have put my words in your mouth. He said to Ezekiel eat the scroll (Ezekiel 3:1). He said we should open our mouth and He will fill it (Psalms 81:10). He said He will always give us the right word at the right time (Luke 21:14-15). All these are possible only for a man who create time to be with the Lord in fellowship (Acts 4:13).
     Friend, you cannot pick this grace by going to school. You need to give yourself to creating time to fellowship with Jesus. It will distinguish you in office and in your trade. And you will stand out for Jesus anywhere. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, put your word in my mouth

“WHEN YOU ARE ONE WITH JESUS, HIS WORD WILL BECOME YOUR WORD”

FOLLOWING CHRIST                   Luke 14:25-33 Devotional Verse:- "If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple” (Vs. 26)      God has enthroned Jesus as King of kings and the Lord of lords (Revelation 17:14). 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.

COURAGE

COURAGE Joshua 1:1-9 Devotional:- “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go” (V. 9) NKJV      A major reason why many people are weak is because their level of courage is so low, that it cannot sustain them through to success. So they easily give up when faced with challenges. There is need for us to understand that there is no action that will not attract a reaction. So the only answer is courage.
