GOOD REPORT

  GOOD REPORT   Proverbs 15:28-33 Devotional:- “The light of the eyes rejoices the heart, And a good report makes the bones healthy” (v.30) NKJV Today, in the whole world, the only kind of news celebrated by men is bad news. The reporters have also realised that people want bad news. So, they hardly report good things. If you listen to the news, read from the media or browse through the net, it is all about evil things happening all over the world. This is the trick of the enemy to cage the sons of men into sorrow and break the flow of joy in the lives of the people. The scripture we read today says, “good report makes the heart glad”. You must recognise the principle of a joyful life. It is a product of regular joyful reports (Proverbs 25:25). It is what you love to hear that your life will look like (Mark 4:24). you must know you are a product of what you are hearing. Friend, this demands that you should be careful of what you hear if you want to live in joy. A sorrowful rep...

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”.
