THE PAST

  THE PAST Isaiah 43:8-21 Devotional:- “Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old.” (v.18) NKJV God, who gives us a memory, want us to use our past experiences to help us make quality decisions in the future, but the past is always the enemy of the future for many. If you don’t know how to manage your memory system of the past, it is capable of standing against your success in the future. As emotional beings, we are sometimes faced with the challenges of memories of our past experiences, our errors and failures. You will observe that at every point of decision-making to progress, the enemy will bring back to your memory the past experiences of your failure. This is just to bring fear to your heart and make you doubt the possibility of your success, so you could lose your joy. The scripture we read today instructs us to let go of the past. God is starting a brand-new thing with you. He is giving you new experiences of success and breakthrough. You need to lea...

ANOINTING OF JOY

ANOINTING OF JOY

Isaiah 61:1-6

“To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness, The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified” (V. 3) NKJV


    You must realise that you are not created for sorrow. The atmosphere in heaven is always one of joy; heaven is not a place for sorrow. From the beginning, we were creatures of joy. He that created us cannot make us for sorrow. It is a pity that a greater percentage of the time of man is full of sorrow (it was not so from the beginning). This is definitely a result of the enemy stealing the joy of man and giving him the yoke of sorrow.

That is why the Son of God was manifested to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8). Christ has come to give an anointing of joy instead of mourning and sorrow. It means from now on, your sorrow shall be over. Anointing of joy breaks the yoke of sorrow (Isaiah 10:27). The oil represents the virtue or the power of the Spirit of God. The yoke of sorrow is the trouble that the sorrow of life has brought into your life. I see the yoke of sorrow broken away from your life from now on in Jesus' name.

For this very reason, Jesus came to anoint you with oil of joy. Christ means the anointed one, and He is now dwelling in you. One of the anointings He brings to you is the anointing of Joy. All you need to do is to believe God’s word that says Christ, the anointed one, is in you (1Cor 3:16), and your faith will start to say ‘No’ to sorrow, for the Lord has anointed you for joy for the remaining days of your life. Joy shall be your lot. God has set you free from sorrow, and now He shall encompass you around with joy. If you can believe, it shall be so, and your joy shall have no end. Welcome to your season of joy.

Prayer: Lord, anoint me with the oil of joy.

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.

FRUITFULNESS

FRUITFULNESS Psalms 128:1-6 Devotional:- Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine In the very heart of your house, Your children like olive plants All around your table” (V.3) NKJV      One of the blessings God pronounced on man at creation is fruitfulness. And today people are beginning to think that fruitlessness is a defect in the creation of man. So, most people are beginning to count it as natural to be fruitless. But we need to ask ourselves if there were defects in God's creation. Why should it be that it is only in human we often find such defects? How many goats or dogs have you found barren? Are we saying the same word of God spoken that brought the creation of all things has failed on the side of humans?  If you accept it as your lifestyle, it is your choice.

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.
