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.

PRAYING WITH POWER

PRAYING WITH POWER

Scripture Reading Acts 4:23-31
Devotional:- “And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness” (V. 31) NKJV

    When you are living by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, your prayer life will be with the power of God. This is because your utterances will proceed from the Holy Spirit. And the angels of God are ordained to carry out the word of God (Psalms 103:20). Your word will become an authority that will be executed. This will give you the experience of answered prayers.

The disciples were persecuted in the book of Acts 4. They therefore returned back to their company and prayed. It is recorded in the word of God that the place where they prayed was shaking. This is the manifestation of the power of God amidst them. That led to their empowerment to do more exploit for the gospel.

Friend, if you want to see the grace for answered prayers, then; you must make your prayers by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. This you can do by asking in your spirit man for what to pray about (Romans 8:26-27). The Holy Spirit will supply you scriptures that will release the answer to your prayers. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to always be connected with you in my prayers.

“ASKING ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, GIVES YOU ACCESS TO ANSWERS”
