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 ...

WAIT ON THE WORD

WAIT ON THE WORD                

Psalms 27:11-14
Devotional: -Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!” (V. 14) NKJV
 
   Everyone who wants to experience the power in the word of God must learn to wait on God for His word. This is because when the word of God comes to you, the power of God has come to you. He that has the word has the power of God. This is because His word is His power (Ecclesiastic 8:4).
 
   The word of God says, when we wait on the Lord, we will become strengthened in our heart. To wait on the Lord is to wait on His word. This is by acknowledging Him in all your ways (Proverbs 3:5-6). This to always ask Him for His word in any given situation. “Lord what do I do?” When He gives you His words, then you have His power. This is because His word will surely be carried out. Jesus, as the Lord of hosts is committed to this (2 Kings 19:31).
 
   Friend, you must learn to put your confidence in God’s word, knowing fully well that it will not fail. Every time you ask for the word of the Lord, the Holy Spirit wants to give you the father’s word. All you need to do is to be attentive to Him. Always wait on His word whenever you are in any situation. Then, you will have a word that will be executed as you speak it by faith. Stop speaking or acting only as you think, but as He thinks, according to His word. You will see His power. Peace!
 
PRAYER: Lord, help me to always wait on your word for my actions.
 
“TO RECEIVE HIS WORD, ASK HIM”

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 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.
