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 ...

THE ROCK

Devotional:- “He is the rock, His work is perfect for all His way is justice a God of truth and without injustices; righteous and upright is He” (V. 4)

    You need to know that the word of God calls our God the rock. Any time I have the privilege to be on a rock it is always a wonderful thing to behold. A rock is always great and strong. You can’t kick it or hit it. You will be doing yourself a great harm. It is always strong and mighty. It doesn’t shake nor move. It is very stable and balanced. I always desire to be on the rock.

You need to know that your God is the rock. Not just a rock else He will be one of the many rocks but the Rock. In other words, He is the only sure rock. Whoever kicks or hits Him is in trouble (Luke 20:18). When you stand on it you are safe. When you hide in it you are secure. This is what the Bible refers to as our stronghold and our secret place (Psalm 91:1). God is our secret place. When we are in Him, we are safe and secure (Proverbs 18:10).

Stop being afraid of your enemy, just remain in the rock, i.e., in God. Always be conscious that your life is hidden in Christ in God (Colossians 3:3). Their arrow can’t touch you there. At the touch of the rock, it will crumble. See God in your heart as the rock of your salvation (2Samuel 22:47). He is your sufficient security and assurance. Tell the enemy, he can no more touch you. Stop running about, stand strong in the rock. The rock cannot be moved nor shaken. All other forces are likened to sinking sand but your God is the Solid Rock.

Declaration: My life and my family are hiding in The Rock of Ages.

“ANYTIME THE ENEMY PURSUES, RUN INTO THE ROCK”

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.
