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 ...

TAKING CHARGE.

TAKING CHARGE. 

Psalm 115:9-17
The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’s; But the earth He has given to the children of men (v. 16) NKJV

    God made man with a mandate of dominion (Genesis 1:28). Therefore until a man is taking charge of his life he is not fulfilling his destiny. To take charge is to take full responsibility over your life and destiny.  At creation God has delegated the rulership of the earth to man. The word of God says God is in heaven and the earth He has given to men (Psalm 115:16). The message version says He has put us in charge of the earth. This means you and I have to wake up to take charge (Ephesians 5:14). Many are waiting on the Lord and God is waiting on your permission to do things in your life.

Friend, whenever we are praying, we are inviting God to manifest in our lives. If you don’t invite Him He will not trespass (Genesis 6:3). He made you as a free moral agent to choose to invite Him or not. To be able to take charge in all aspect of your life you cannot do without Him (John 15:5). Arise and take responsibility over your health, family, businesses and finances. 

Stop pushing all your responsibility to God (Hebrews 11:40). He has a path and you have a path. To take responsibility is to call upon God in Prayers, receive His instruction and direction. Then take steps of faith to do what He has instructed you to do. Stop blaming people but rise up from discouragement and frustration. Take steps of faith and you will begins to win in Jesus name.

Prayer: Lord, give me the understanding and the ability to take my responsibility
