  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 ...

SPECIAL ABILITIES

Exodus 35:10-19
Devotional: "All who are gifted artisans among you shall come and make all that the LORD has commanded:” (V. 10)


    God in His decision to make man relevant to his world often load us with all manner of abilities to carry out our work on earth. If you observe the makeup of man, you will discover that it is because we were made to work on the earth (Genesis 2:15). Each of us need to be grateful to God for this. It will now be a crime for anyone to refuse to work or be idle.

In our scripture today, God had a plan to build a tabernacle, a place where He will dwell and people will come to worship Him. This demands the work of the talented among the children of Israel.

Friend, your talents are your instruments of work and not just hubby. Take time to organize yourself to work with them. Use them to help others out and build a business out of them. If you can think enough, what you have is enough. Use those talents to promote your work in the office, in your business or in the community at large. By so doing you are promoting the kingdom of God and you shall be promoted (Matthew 6:33). Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make me a blessing to others this year

“ALL US WILL GIVE ACCOUNT ON HOW WE USE THE TALENTS GIVEN TO US”

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 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.
