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 ...

SWORD OF THE SPIRIT

SWORD OF THE SPIRIT

Hebrew 4:11-32
Devotional:- “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart” (V. 12) NKJV

  The sword is an important weapon of battle. It is a major weapon your enemy sees and get scared. They know that with it, you can kill and totally overcome. A sword is too delicate to play with. So those who go to war know that it is very important. It will therefore be delicate as a Christian that you live your life in this world of battles without a sword.

The Bible says, the word of God is the sword of the spirit. Don’t forget we are not fighting with flesh and blood. So we are not talking about physical sword (2 Corinthians 10:4). Through it, you can totally put your enemy off your way. This is by taking it as you take the sword. When a warrior takes the sword, he swings it to kill the enemy. So also as a Christian, when you take the word of God, you are saying it should act like a sword to all that is against you. Nothing can escape it. (Joel 2:3)

You therefore need to start to see God’s word as the Bible says it. If it is released through your mouth by faith, your enemies are in trouble. Start to use this weapon from now and your victory shall be established. Peace.

Prayer: Lord, put your word in my mouth

“SWORD HAVE NO MERCY”
