JOY IN THE CITY

    JOY IN THE CITY Acts 8:1-8 Devotional:- “And there was great joy in that city” (v.8) NKJV Another powerful producer of joy is Christ in your life (Colossians 1:27). Christ can change our sorrow into joy. He came to set us free from the power that caged us in sorrow. He came to give us the key to joy. Many have not come to know that having Christ in their life is not just about going to church. The truth you need to hear is that when you give room to Christ in your life, you have given room to joy (Luke 2:10). The scripture we read today is the report of what happened to the city of Samaria. They accommodated Jesus Christ in their life, and God’s word reported that there was great joy in that city. The confusion is that there are many in church today without Christ; they have confessed Jesus Christ as their Saviour, but they don’t have room for him in their heart.

THE QUALITY SEED

THE QUALITY SEED            

Read: Luke 21:1-4
For all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had” (Vs. 4)

    The quality of a seed is evident in the richness of its fruits. In the kingdom of this world, we celebrate those who give big gifts but that is not so in the kingdom of God. In the kingdom of God, the quality of your love determines the quality of your seed. You can see the quality of the love of God in His willingness to give His only son (John 3:16). That was His all.
     Jesus was in the temple and people were giving their offerings. Jesus comment that those were giving big offerings took it from their fat account. A widow brought what looked small to man but that was all she had. To God, when you give your all, you have given your best. No one wants to accept a 70% marriage but a 100% marriage.
 
    Friend, stop reserving your strength to serve the Lord. Abraham gave his only son, Isaac. Hannah gave her only son, Samuel. They all bagged greatness in God. Be willing to give your all into anything you do for God. 99.999% is not comparable to the best. Give your heart and life totally to God. Don’t divide your offerings or tithes so that you can get the best of God. It is your day!
 
Prayer: Lord, help me to give my best to You.
 
“ONLY THOSE WHO GIVE ALL CAN EARN THE BEST FROM GOD”
