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 ...

WICKEDNESS

WICKEDNESS

Matt 25:26-28
Dev:- “But his lord answered and said to him, 'You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sown, and gather where I have not scattered seed” (v. 26) NKJV

    It is an act of wickedness when God invest in your life, the opportunities he has given you and you use it for nothing. It is an act of wickedness when God sees the ability in you and He gives you the grace to manifest it but you refuse. It is an act of wickedness when we fail. It is an act of wickedness when God keeps you alive, heal you, save you, strengthen you, and you still see God not good enough.

It is important we come to understand as citizens of the kingdom of God that God will count it an act of wickedness, having done all to keep us alive and we only give excuses. That is why you and I need to look around to see all that the Lord has invested in us and take advantage of them.

Friend, you need to humble yourself to appreciate what God is doing. Stop looking at money but believe God. The mentality of no money has destroyed the riches of God in the life of most people. There is money. You and I only need to learn to access it. It is important you look carefully to see how you can start small. Stop comparing your life with others (2 Corinthians 10:12). It is always possible to start life from where you are. It is pride that makes us give excuses. God made you for a purpose. Don't squander it. Peace.

PRAYER- Lord, reveal to me your blessings around me.
