  LOST AND FOUND Luke 15:1-10 Devotional:- “Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents" (v.10) NKJV So many people today have allowed their situation and circumstances to affect their lives before the Lord. Some have totally lost their faith in God. They can no longer hope in the Lord their God. You could even observe many who are your contemporaries, and you can no longer see them in the Lord. They can no longer hope and wait on God, and you cannot really find them around again. They are simply nowhere to be found. There are several reasons why this happens to people. It’s either that they become offended in the church or with the pastor and feel it is enough of Christ. Some actually, for one reason or another, want to change their church for a better one but find themselves in spiritual confusion. They will in the end become backsliders.

ENCOURAGEMENT

ENCOURAGEMENT

1 Samuel 30:1-8
Devotional:- Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God. (V. 6)

    As important as courage is to our victory, also encouragement is equally important. Encouragement is bouncing back to courage; encouragement is regaining back your strength. In this world the enemy will always do everything to discourage you, this will be through many avenues, he will use a dragging situation, he will use mockers, he will use frustration. All of these is to remove your courage; this is because your courage is your strength to win.

To bounce back to courage when you are discouraged is the act of refusing the discouraging factors and hold to what encourages you. That is why encouragement will have to be self-encouragement, most of the time David had to turn back to God who have been his strength.

Friend, most people want to pull you down but learn to always turn to God for your encouragement. Your strength will always be by taking instruction from God and obeying by faith. When David obeyed the Lord, he got back his victory; you are getting back your victory. It is not over for you. You will still win. Return back to God and you will win again.

Prayer: Lord, help me to return back to you for my victory

“Only God gives a lasting strength”.
