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.

JACOB’S BLESSING

JACOB’S BLESSING

Genesis 49:1-12
Devotional:- “And Jacob called his sons and said, "Gather together, that I may tell you what shall befall you in the last days” (V.1) NKJV

    So many people have had to repeat the same trouble their parents experienced. It has been so all over their generations. The Father was a poor man through his lifetime and the son has taken after him. Life after life kept on experiencing the same thing all through the decades.

This is because such parents do not effect change that will affect their coming generations. God has given these virtues to all faithful parents and can be enjoyed by all faithful children. The patriarchs knew this and they always exploited this faith. Jacob woke up one day and asked his children to gather with him and by faith began to speak to their lives. And it was so for them.

Friend, never curse your children, but know that you have the authority to make them good by what you say or call them. Always speak better things into their life by faith. And they will be a blessing to you. Some parents just procrastinate on this. Start yours from now and make it a regular or daily event. And while you are alive, they will become great.

Prayer: Lord, make me a producer of better generations.

“IF YOU KEEP SAYING IT YOU WILL START SEEING IT”
