CHOICE OF JOY

CHOICE OF JOY Acts 16:20-30 Devotional:- “But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.” (V.25) NKJV So many people in this world have not woken up to the fact that the way they live is their choice. One of the greatest errors is to think that the situation a man finds himself, is the determining factor of his life. This is not true. Please come to an awareness of this truth from now on: that you are living as you have chosen to live. Get to know that you are a creature of choice. Whatever your choice is, that is your lot. God chooses no evil for anyone in life (Jeremiah 29:11). Whether you are happy or not, whether you are rich or not, whether you are healthy or not, it is your choice; if you decide otherwise from now and stand by your decision, things will change for you.

A HUNDRED FOLD

A HUNDRED FOLD           

Read: Mark 10:29-31
Who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time - houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions - and in the age to come, eternal life (Vs. 30).


    The kingdom of God is a kingdom of covenants. A covenant is a legal agreement sealed by blood. One of the reasons Jesus shed His blood was to seal up the word of God for the benefit of all believers (Heb. 9:16-18). One of such covenants which believers have in the word of God is a hundred fold covenants.
 
    Jesus says, whatever is sown to the Lord and His kingdom will come back in a hundred fold. This is an assurance to give us rest of mind whenever we obey Him. A Hundred fold is a 100% return. It’s not common to find a sure business of a 100% return in this world but that is our heritage in God. It’s an everlasting covenant. It is not the type that will change with inflation or economic recession.
 
    That is why you should let your faith in God make you give with joy. (2 Corinthians 9:7). Give bountiful offerings and sow your tithes with joy in anticipation of God’s blessings (2 Corinthians 9:6). If God has been faithful from the ages past, He will be faithful even now and to the end. Your reward will surely come in Jesus’ name. Peace.
 
Prayer: Lord, let my reward come
 
“IN GOD, NO SOWING IN FAITH IS LOST”
