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.

ATMOSPHERE OF JOY

 

ATMOSPHERE OF JOY

John 15:5-17

Devotional:- “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full” (v.11) NKJV


For anyone to swim in any atmosphere, he must first create it around himself. The truth is that it is the atmosphere you create around yourself that truly exists with you. For anyone to have the atmosphere of joy, one of the things that the atmosphere must be composed of is love. Some partners work together with joy, and one of the strongest of them is love.

Jesus said we should love one another that our joy may be full (John 15:10-17). So, it means what gives maximum joy is love; this is because God himself is love (1 John 4:7-8). God’s word says that in the presence of God, there is fullness of joy (Psalm 16:11). It therefore becomes impossible to want to have joy in the midst of hatred.

So many people who have faced a crisis at home will always want to go out to a joint, wanting to feel happy and secure joy. Such joy does not exist. It will therefore be wise for us to understand that joy cannot exist in any life without love. Love is better practically explained in 1 Corinthians 13. And when you can humble yourself to live in love, then you will grow into maturity to enjoy the joy that the presence of the Lord brings. And your joy shall be full.


Prayer: Lord, plant your love in my heart.

“UNTIL THERE IS LOVE, THERE CANNOT BE ESTABLISHED JOY”
