FOUNTAIN OF LIFE!

GIVE GOD'S WORD PRIORITY AND SEE GOOD SUCCESS
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success. Joshua 1:8

In life, there is good success and bad success. Bad success is the kind that robs you of time with your family, friends and church, and destroys your health and relationships. With good success, you see prosperity in every area of your life. Beloved, God wants you to enjoy good success and the key to this lies in what God told Joshua in the memory verse.

Spending time in God’s Word daily will give you godly wisdom, which will make your way prosperous and give you good success. Look at how Joshua’s life turned out in the end. When Joshua died, “they buried him within the border of his inheritance at Timnath Serah, which is in the mountains of Ephraim…” Can you imagine? Joshua was so successful that he had a whole mountain for his inheritance! Also in Joshua’s time, the Israelites were impacted for God’s glory because they served God.

And at the end of his life, a fulfilled Joshua had this to say, “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Having your family loving God and serving Him with you is the most important success and greatest prosperity that you can ever have. Beloved, when God’s Word takes priority in your daily life, not only will your finances be blessed, your ministry and family life will also be blessed!

Prayer
Father, I bless You for the life I have today. I acknowledge the efficacy of Your Word and I pray that every spoken Word concerning my life will accomplish its purpose. I pray that Your Word will become a priority in my life and will never depart from my heart in Jesus’ name. Amen.

FOUNTAIN OF LIFE!

JOY IN HIS PRESENCE
You have made 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)

Happiness is as a result of events happening around you, but joy springs from your inner man – your spirit. Nehemiah 8:10 says that the joy of the Lord is your strength. The devil knows this and so he will always try to prevent you from being joyful. He will remind you of the things that make you anxious, worried and downhearted. But learn to rejoice in the Lord always!

God promises that joy is found in His presence. If you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, then His presence lives inside of you! Joy will manifest when you focus your mind and heart on the Father and begin to praise Him for what He has done in your life. Bible says that He inhabits the praises of His people. When you praise and thank Him, you are in His presence where there is fullness of joy! It doesn’t matter where you are or what is going on around you, you can access the joy inside of you anytime, day or night.

God wants you to experience His supernatural joy and peace at all times. That is why He chose to live inside of you and give you an endless supply. Don’t waste another minute feeling overburdened and discouraged. Let the joy of the Lord be your strength and move forward into perpetual victory!

Prayer
Father in heaven, I thank You for an endless supply of joy. Today I choose to cast my cares on You and give You the praise, glory and honor You deserve. Lord, please let joy flow through me today so that I can be a witness of Your goodness to those around me in Jesus’ name. Amen.
