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        

Matthew 17: 14-20
Devotional:-“So Jesus said to them, "Because of your unbelief; for assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith as a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you” (v.20) NKJV


    Faith is the strength and energy of God to do all things. It is by faith creation came to be (Hebrews 11:3). Where there is faith, there will be achievements. It is by faith that we can experience divine healing (James 5:15). It is by faith we can overcome the devil (1 John 5:4). Faith is the major factor in walking and attaining with God (Hebrews 11:5). If faith is that important, then we must grow in faith. 

We read in the scripture today that the disciples came to Jesus having failed in been able to cast out devil. They ask Jesus the reason for their failure. Jesus replied them that, it’s due to their unbelief which is lack of faith. Please understand that faith is the energy of God released into our spirit-man by God for us to be able to carry out an assignment for His glory. 

Growing faith therefore demands that we wait on the word of God by meditation. It is as we meditate that the Holy Spirit releases the energy of the word of God into our Spirit. By this, we gain confidence and boldness to rise and manifest the grace of God for an achievement. All citizens of the kingdom of God must give themselves to growing in faith to keep their victory and success in place. And we shall keep growing. Peace. 

Prayer: Lord, give me grace to keep increasing in faith.

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.
