MEMORISE: For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Psalms 30:5
BIBLE READING: Romans 8:28
28 And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
MESSAGE:
Amid life’s challenges, it is easy to feel overwhelmed, discouraged, or even hopeless, but I want to remind you of a timeless truth: joy is coming. No matter the challenges you might be facing right now, there is a promise of joy ahead.
In the Bible, joy is not merely an emotion that is dependent on circumstances; it is a deep-seated confidence in God’s goodness and His promises. Even when things seem bleak, you can rest assured that God is working all things together for your good. Galatians 5:22 says that joy is a fruit of the Spirit, and it can only be reinforced by the help of the Holy Spirit.
My dear child, sometimes, God uses our struggles to strengthen our faith and character, ultimately leading to deeper joy and perseverance. Do not let your joy be based on circumstances but on the unchanging character of God, who is ever faithful. As you learn to trust in Him, He will fill you with joy and peace that surpasses all understanding.
KEY POINT:
Keep trusting God and rejoicing in His goodness, knowing that He is faithful to fulfil His promises.
