JOY IS NEEDED FOR RESTORATION – Daily Devotional

SCRIPTURAL TEXT: Isaiah 12: 3


Therefore, With joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation

The ways of God are not our ways. Scripture tells us that as high as the heavens are from the earth, so are God’s ways higher than our ways. This means that God’s counsel or strategy will often oppose the counsel or strategy of men. If this is true, then we ought to always look at God’s counsel as touching our challenges and not the counsel of men.

God has a strategy that puts us over and above any situation, and amazingly, He has not held back from revealing this strategy to us. Our opening scripture reveals to us that Joy is one of God’s strategies that keeps us in charge of whatever the enemy may bring our way. Many believers, though saved, are unable to experience the benefits of their salvation, because they lack the Joy of the Lord in their lives. This ought not to be so.

Joy is a fruit of the Spirit and proof of your faith and openness to the Holy Ghost. The lack of joy is a vivid symptom of fear, worry, unbelief or bitterness. Your restoration is part of your salvation package, but it takes joy to draw it out. Refuse therefore to give place to any atmosphere that corrupts your joy, because joy is proof that your restoration is on the way. Glory to God!

PRAYER FOR THE DAY

Dear Father, I pray for joy to well up from within me always no matter my circumstance in Jesus name

PRAYER FOR ISRAEL

Father, I ask today that there will be peace in Jerusalem and that your purposes be established in that city. Amen (Ps 122:6)

PRAYER FOR NATIONS AND LEADERS ( BULGARIA )

Background: 24% are unreached with the Gospel of Christ. Though the population is largely Christian, Muslim missionaries (who outnumber Christian ones) are pushing for greater Islamic influence. There are presently about 900,000 Muslims in the nation. We are praying for the nation of Bulgaria that the Gospel of Christ will prevail within her. Father, grant this nation wise leaders; whose hearts will set to know and to search out true to receive instruction for justice, judgment, and equity.

PRAYER FOR THE UNITY OF THE CHURCH

We repent on behalf of the church for displeasing you, we choose to pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, and oneness.
