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 ...

HELMET OF SALVATION

HELMET OF SALVATION         

Isaiah 59:8-21
Devotional:- For He put on righteousness as a breastplate, And a helmet of salvation on His head; He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, And was clad with zeal as a cloak. (V. 17) NKJV

    God is a victorious God. So when a man is adopted into son ship with God, the spirit of victory enters in to him. This is what a man receives at new birth. God’s word says as many as believe in Him He gave them power to become the sons of God (John 1:12). The power of God that makes a man to become a child of God comes with this strength for victory. So God's word says whatsoever is born of God wins (1 John 5:4).

For the fact that a child of God is looking defeated, does not remove the fact that is a victor. The ability for victory is within him but if it is not activated, he’s to be blamed (Hosea 4:6). That is why you as a Christian must understand that your birth in Christ enlist you for victory but you must arise to work out your salvation with fear and trembling (Philippians 2:12).

This is done by growing your faith life. This is growing your God’s nature life. It is becoming strong in the Lord. This is living in the consciousness of your new family. Never look down on your new personality, this must fill your mind and you declare it everywhere. “I am a child of God” and your life will be secure.

Prayer: Lord, established me in your son-ship

“VICTORY CAN BE THROUGH INHERITANCE”.

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

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.
