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 ...

VIPER AT MELITA

Acts 28:1-7
Devotional:- “However, they were expecting that he would swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had looked for a long time and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god” (V.6) NKJV

    The world is not yet converted to the Lord because they have not encountered the power of God in their lives. Most Christians are unbelieving Christians and this is because they do not know the truth. Jesus said, except they see signs and wonders they will not believe (John 4:48). Till now, many Christians still enjoy playing safe in life. They are not ready to become a vessel of God’s wonder.

Paul having passed through a challenging time, while he was trying to warm himself, a viper or serpent held on to his hand. A cobra bit him. He just shook the viper into the fire and continued his life. In his mind, he can't be harmed (Mark 16:17-18). The people expected him to die but when he did not, they changed their minds and said he was a god.

Friend, your fear has not allowed you to be a miracle. And it has chased many from believing your God. Do you know God lives in you (1 Corinthians 3:16)? Do you know that Jesus has given you all authority (Luke 10:19)? Don’t let sickness destroy your destiny. Some people even rejoice in their sickness and celebrate it. They talk about it like a good thing. You cannot afford to be a victim. You are a victor. Seek to know the truth. Pick books written by men of faith on the subject of your concern. Then, your faith will rise and your affliction will be over. Arise and win.

Declaration: I cannot afford to fail, I WILL ARISE.

YOU ARE WHAT YOU SEE IN YOUR MIND ABOUT YOURSELF”

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.
