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 ...

SEE THE WAY    

Revelations 3:7-13
Devotional:- See I have said before you an open door and no man can shut it. (V. 8)

    Several times when the children of God pray for open door, they should rather pray for the opening of their eyes (Ephesians 1:17-18). Many people are suffering in the midst of plenty, someone said gold is everywhere but few open their eyes to see it.  Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life… (John 14:6). Jesus has the key of David and that is unfailing key, the master key (Rev. 3:7). He said he has kept an open door before you. This means the door you have been praying for has been opened. He said there is no temptation without the way of escape. It means in this very situation, God has made a way to escape to peace and prosperity.

What we need therefore is to ask God to open our eyes in the spirit to see what God has done for us. That door looked closed because you have allowed the situation to deprogram your mind to see a close door. There are many opportunities around you but pride, arrogance and ignorance have closed your eyes (2 Corinthians 4:4). Humble yourself under the mighty hand of God for your lifting (1 Peter 5:6). Always be obedient and faithful to God’s word and you shall access your portion this Year. In this special day of Christmas the eyes of your understanding shall be opened in Jesus name.

Prayer: Holy Spirit, teach me meekness for my rising

“THE ONLY  CLOSED DOOR IS THE ONE IN YOUR MIND”.

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.
