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.

QUIET TIME

QUIET TIME

Scripture: Psalm 32:1-11
Devotional:- For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You In a time when You may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters They shall not come near him (v. 6) NKJV

    The word of God says there is time for everything (Ecclesiastic 3:1) That is why each of us who desire to be like Jesus should create a time when we know we can seek Him in an acceptable way. This is the time to grow through His word to learn to be like Him.

In the scripture we read today the Bible mention the fact that there is a time that God can be found. In such time, you worship and thank the Lord. This is a time you create a systematic study of the word and pray it into your life. This is a time when we will not be distracted by other things. It is always better early in the morning. This is when the activities of the day has not demanded for our attention. To other it may be in the afternoon in the office. Just be sure you can be alone with Jesus (Psalm 63:1, Isaiah 26:9).

It is so important you set aside a time daily and not any time. Any worthy course demand steady time. The moment you appoint a time everything about you  get adjusted expecting your attention to God. The Holy Spirit will always help us when we make up our mind to seek the Lord. And we shall grow up to be like.

Prayer: Lord, give me a heart for you.
