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.

ACKNOWLEDGING HIM

ACKNOWLEDGING HIM

Scripture Reading Proverbs 3:1-10
Devotional:- “In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths” (V. 6). NKJV

    Living by inspiration always makes you and God to be partners in doing all your things together (1 Corinthians 3:9). That makes you a wonder wherever you are and in whatever you are doing. But, there are processes to getting inspired by the Holy Spirit. One of the factors is that, you must regularly acknowledge God. This is because God will not force Himself on you (Genesis 6:3).

To acknowledge God is to remember to ask for His leading and help. In the covenant nature of God, you must ask Him before He can work together with you. Any time you forget to ask Him out, His presence is still with you but He is not obliged to work with you (Matthew 7:7).

Friend, you must therefore get used to asking Him to lead and help you as you speak, He will give you the right word and wisdom for solution. When Pharaoh was sharing his dreams with Joseph, I believe Joseph will be praying to God inside him, “Lord teach me what to say”, so he spoke wisdom that elevated him (Genesis 40:8). You are made for wisdom and solution. That shall be your life style from today in Jesus name. Peace.

PRAYER: Holy Spirit, remind me to always acknowledge God
