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 ...

CREATING PROVISION​​​​

CREATING PROVISION​​​​
Matthew 17:24-27
Devotional- “Nevertheless, lest we offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a piece of money; take that and give it to them for Me and you." (V. 27)


    Every man or woman must learn how to create their own money. He that does not know how to create his own medium of financial flow will not be able to achieve so much in this world. The world have no respect for a man who cannot achieve great things. So, you must learn how to command money to respond to you especially in time of needs.


   The tax collector came and was expecting Jesus and His disciples to pay their taxes. At that moment the treasurer among the disciples might not be around and Jesus had to create how to pay their taxes. There is a need to learn from this. Note that Jesus instructed Peter to go and catch a fish and not a rat. This was because Peter was a fisherman. That is why you also need to have a job or business. It is there God will often channel help to you. Peter obeyed the Lord and the rest was a testimony.

   God expect each one to have something doing i.e. a means of income. God hates idleness (1 Thessalonians 4:10-12). Your money is in your place of labour. That is why you should be faithful and loyal there.(Luke 16:10-12). When you are in need, ask God for what to do (Proverbs 3:5-6; Psalms 37:23-25; Isaiah 48:7). Be sure that you are first faithful to God in your finances and God will not allow you to be stranded financially (Malachi 3:10-12). Also be sure that you affect lives and keep fulfilling the purpose of God in all you do. He will always supply your need. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, teach me the way to financial grace
