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 ...

EXAMPLE OF LOVE

EXAMPLE OF LOVE

1 Timothy 4:12-16
Devotional:- "Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity".( V.12)

    The word of God commanded us to be an example of love. In other word, it is the desire of God that people should see His nature in us through our life of love (John 13:35). An example of a thing is a model that characterizes the exact look of the original.

For us to live as an example of the love of God to our world, God’s word teaches us to always study and meditate on the word of God. No one can be an example of what he does not live in. That is why we have to live in love

Please, know that whatever attitude you want to live in must fill your mind. A life you will live must be the one you are emulating and learning. You just need to allow the Spirit of God to teach you through the word of God to live in love. You must give yourself to meditation in the word of God. Please know that it is what you give yourself to meditate on that you will behave like. Meditation is digesting information into your life (Joshua 1:8) It will always determine your action. Peace

PRAYER: Lord, teach me to meditate on your word

“You will always be an example of your strong thoughts"

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.
