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 ...

CONVERTING SOULS

CONVERTING SOULS                

Psalms 19:1-14
Devotional:-“The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple” (V. 7) NKJV



   The word of God is powerful enough to convert souls. This is one of the most difficult tasks to carry out. A man or a woman can easily repent but their soul may not be converted easily. When you see a converted soul, he is the one who have totally changed, contrary to what he used to do or say. Someone who is ready to ague to death saying A is good and B is bad and now ready to die to say B is good and A is bad, that a genuine conversion.
 
   The word of God says, the power of the word of God can convert soul. This was the experience of Saul of Tarsus who became Paul the Apostle. He was ready to die for his Jewish religion. But after an encounter with Jesus, he was converted and preached the gospel he was once killing people for (Acts 9:1-9; 20-21). Remember, Jesus is the word of God (John 1:14). That is why the word is powerful enough to convert.
 
   When someone is stubborn around you, all you need to do is to pray for the person to encounter the word of God. He will be broken down and completely changed. This is the power of the word of God.  Please take advantage that your family is young and together. Keep sharing the word daily and the family shall be converted. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, convert the soul of all the members of my family by your word.
 
“NO SOUL CAN REFUSE THE WORD OF HIS MAKER”

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.
