  JOY OF SALVATION Psalm 51:8-19 Devotional:- “Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And uphold me by Your generous Spirit” (v.12) NKJV Many believers have not learnt to truly experience the joy of salvation. So, the enemy often pushes them to sorrow in the midst of their joy. The reason many don’t exercise this joy for their lifting is that they quickly allow their challenges to make them lose sight of the redemptive provision. They allow the wind of their challenges to take them on and on into fear and worry. They forget the joy of salvation, which is actually their strength and solution. David also experiences this deception of the devil to take him into a season of dryness and sorrow, but he quickly remembered the joy of God’s salvation. He started asking for the restoration of this joy. Friend, let me remind you that Christ died to take not only your sin but also your sorrow away (Matthew 8:17). Remember that He has redeemed you from the curse of the law and has enlisted yo...

CHOICE OF JOY

CHOICE OF JOY                  

Habakkuk 3:17-19
Devotional:- “Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.” v18


    It is important you know that your action of joy is your choice. Joy is not a gift but individual choice. When you see someone who is always rejoicing, it is not because he has a lot of money or have achieved all his goals. It is just because his choice is to keep rejoicing in the Lord, so if any one is sad, it is also their choice.

In our Scripture today is the experience of prophet Habakkuk. He saw many things not in the right place. But he made up his mind to keep rejoicing no matter what. That is a personal choice for him. 

Friend, you need to choose a life of joy. Don’t abandon your life into the hands of situations around you. Don’t allow others to keep choosing the way you should live for you. Make your choices yourself. Remember, joy helps you stay in health (Proverbs 17:22). Joy makes you look good and great(Proverbs 15:13) Joy makes you to accommodate the presence of the Lord (Psalm 16:11) Remember, if you don’t make the choice to keep rejoicing, you have unconsciously make the choice to be sorrowful. Don’t let anything determine your mood or state of mind. Make a conscious choice and you will keep rejoicing. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, help me to make up my mind to keep rejoicing

“LIFE IS NOT FOREVER, CHOOSE TO LIVE WELL”

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
