SPEAKING JOY

  SPEAKING JOY Genesis 21:1-7 Devotional:- “And Sarah said, "God has made me laugh, and all who hear will laugh with me."" (v.6) NKJV It is important that you know that your life is determined by your choice. It is what you say your life will be that it shall be. Men are simply victims of their own beliefs and words (Proverbs 6:2). That is why you and I need to be careful of what we declare about our lives, family and pursuit (Isaiah 43:26). The woman we read about today was a woman of faith. When she gave birth to her child, she called him laughter. She, by her mouth, rejoices at the gift of God to her life. No matter the colour or look of the child, her own name for the baby is laughter. God’s word talks about Moses' mother, she saw her child as good and could not surrender him for killing (Exodus 2:2). Watch out, it is what you call your life that it shall be. Many gifts God gave to people are turned into sorrow by the name they call it. God has blessed some with ...

COMING WITH SINGING

Isaiah 51:7-12

Devotional:- “So the ransomed of the LORD shall return, And come to Zion with singing, With everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness; Sorrow and sighing shall flee away” (V. 11) NKJV


Although the world is currently experiencing an increase in sorrow and sorrowful news, God has no such plan for His children. Zion is the place where God has ordained joy. That is why all God’s children must locate their Zion. This is where we gather to worship the name of the Lord, which we refer to as a place of worship today (the church).

In our scripture today, God’s word reminds us of how we are to come to Zion to find the restoration of our joy and sustain it. This is by worshipping the Lord; this is by talking about His deeds in life. Wherever God is praised, He will always manifest His power. Then the redeemed of the Lord shall always return with singing to Zion. In other words, you and your family can start to praise God in that house, office, or fellowship, and then everyone will start to return with joy. Anytime you go out, God will cause you to return with joy.

Friend, you can turn your house, your shop or office into the Zion of the Lord, a place of praise. Then God will make you to always return with joy, and sorrow shall no more have room around you. This is because wherever God is praised, He will be there (Psalm 22:3), and He will always come with the fullness of His joy (Psalm 16:11).


Prayer: Lord, give me a praiseful heart

“A PRAISEFUL PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS BE A JOYFUL PEOPLE”

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.
