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 ...

FAITH

FAITH   

Hebrew 11:1-6
Read: “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him” (v. 6)


 

   The affairs of the spirit realm completely depend on faith. In the spirit realm, things are not visible, so, you will have to believe they are, to experience them.  The moment you don’t believe, you already believe the opposite and the devil will take advantage of it (2 Corinthians 2:11). That is why we must live as Jesus lived by faith and not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7).
 
   Faith is the act of receiving energy of the spirit. It is not something you can pretend you have. When you hear, study and meditate on the word of God, the spirit of the word jumps on you. (Ezekiel 2:2). It energizes your spirit-man to have courage and confidence to arise and act till the word of God is carried out. For a man of faith, nothing is impossible (Mark 9:23). This is because you are under the influence of the spirit; you are in the realm of God (John 10:34-35).
 
   To achieve great things to the glory of God, you must always mediate in the word of God (Joshua 1:8, Psalm 1:1-3). You must always create time to be in the house of God to hear the word of the spirit (Psalm 84:7). Then you will discover that you are bold to take steps. You will be rude to the devil and be unstoppable. That way, the impact of the word of God will be immeasurable in your life. Peace!
 
Prayer: Lord, always release the spirit of your words into my heart.
 
“YOU WILL KNOW A MAN OF FAITH BY HIS ACTIONS”

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.
