Devotional

There are many phases of life, and each phase is characterized by its unique dilemma. At one time we were excited, we look forward to each day, and at some other we’re not. Maybe things haven’t turned out the way we thought, we’ll become sour. But largely, whatever our life becomes is a result of what we make of it.

Key Scripture

You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
Psalm 16:11 NIV

Refreshing for the Day

Life does not roll out joy to anyone, you have to think yourself into it.

Beloved, just as it’s of life to go by, so it’s for us to harvest from it. When one’s life is sour and has lost its flavor, bitterness is evident. He smiles, but there’s no real joy behind it, he laughs with his friends, but it’s not genuine. He acts normal in front of people, but alone he’s dejected, but then until he gets his mind going in the right direction, intentionally seeking out the unsurpassed and thinks himself into joy, he may perpetually lose the pleasure of life. May God bless His Words in our lives in Jesus’ name, Amen. Stay Lifted!

Note This

Life does not roll out joy to anyone, you have to think yourself into it.

Responsibility

Do not be overcome by life’s situations, deliberately think yourself into joy.

Pause in His presence

Prayer

O LORD, thank You for Your Word. Give me the grace to be joyful in You always, in the name of Jesus’ Amen! (Go ahead and continue to pray)

Carry this with you

Prophetic Word

May you always be joyful in the Lord all the days of your life, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
