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 ...

ENLARGEMENT

ENLARGEMENT 

Isaiah 54:1-4
Devotional:- “For you shall expand to the right and to the left, And your descendants will inherit the nations, And make the desolate cities inhabited” (V. 3) NKJV

    God created every man with the grace of enlargement and pronounced this blessing on man from the beginning. Man is raised to expand and fill all the earth. If whatever you are doing is not getting enlarged, I must let you know that this is not ordained for you as a New Testament believer. One of the reasons why God scattered the people who were building the tower of Babel was because they did not want to be enlarged. 

They wanted to be just on a spot contrary to the plan of God. Do you know that since God pronounced this blessing at creation, it has been in force till now? But it is only to those who will by choice enforce it upon their lives (Genesis 1:27, Matthew 11:28). Sin ignorance, and disobedience have been the major weapons the enemy has been using to stop men from expanding (Romans 3:23).

Friend, to be enlarged is now your heritage in Christ Jesus. The scripture we read said, “Enlarge your tent.” This have to start from your mind (Proverbs 23:7). Be sure you are led by the Spirit of the Lord to do what you are doing; then you are in for an abundantly expanded venture (John 10:10). You need a larger heart to have a larger life (I Kings 4:29). See your place, business, finance, family, and ministry larger. Begin to view yourself enlarged and expanded all over the earth.

You can have branches all over the continent of Africa and beyond. If the enemy has stolen this, now you can gain it back. Begin by breaking forth into praises to God, and the grace for increase and enlargement shall begin to operate in your life (Psalms 67:5-7). By so doing, there shall be revelational instruction for your enlargement (Act 13:2). Do it so much until enlargement becomes evident in all areas of your life. And your life will never be the same again.

PRAYER: LORD, GIVE ME A LARGER HEART FOR A BIGGER LIFE.

“NO MAN CAN BE BIGGER THAN THE STATE OF HIS HEART”

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.
