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 ...

WHAT IS FELLOWSHIP

What is Fellowship with God? - YouTubeWHAT IS FELLOWSHIP   
             
Hebrews 12:21-29
 
Devotional Verse -“But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels” (V. 22)

One of the greatest privilege man have with God is opportunity to fellowship with God. Fellowship is also God’s desire (John 4:24). From the beginning of creation, we see that God desire to fellowship with man (Genesis 3:8-10). This is greatly revealed in the journey of God with men all through the ages and this is visible from Genesis to Revelation.


The Bible says our Fellowship is with the forces of heaven; to the company of angels, to the general assembly and the church of the first born, to God the Judge of all and to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant. The reason God want to fellowship with man is enormous. It is visible that He made us to fellowship with Him (Genesis 3:8, John 4:23-24, Rev. 21:3). We are not made to be complete without Him (John 15:5). One of the purposes of fellowship is that people become fellow in the same ship. In other words, God want us to be one with Him (John 10:34-36; John 17:21).

Please, understand that God wants to be One with us. He wants to live with you. He wants to influence and strengthen you with His presence (Psalms 84:7). This becomes possible through fellowship. No man can carry the complete glory He is made for without God. Men who attempt this are often known for terrible mysterious hidden life. Make up your mind to live a full glorious life and this is possible through fellowship with God. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, give me a heart that loves your fellowship.

“MAN WITHOUT A FELLOWSHIP WITH GOD WILL LIVE WITH LIMITATIONS”

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 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 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.
