Good evening children of God, may we all not labour in vain in the Mighty name of God.

Dadsonval:
@manoda, thnk u very much. God bless U, i dont want my husband to know, i want to go and come back same day, even if i come back home late plsss!

@Dadsonval, the above post you made is a very wrong decision, please, always let your husband know where you are going to, is dangerious for a woman that is trying to conceive to be going to where-ever alone without her husband's knowledge," it is better for you not to go to C.C.T instead of going there without informing your husband, because every form of sin including what people call little lies, is highly prohibited at C.C.T. AM TALKING FROM MY EXPERIENCE. advice: do not go there, if you are hiding it from your husband, because God is truely working there and He knows our little lies and He does not joke with such.



Dadsonval:
@Godsent, i'm very happy that u replied me, a big AMEN to that cos i want to carry my own twins this year. Plss, i have called your number several times to let u know my condition but it was a man that picked d calls.

where did you get my number? am asking because my phone number is not on the thread, I only posted my email address, but I have never posted my phone number on the internet, or is it servant Vic's number you are referring to as my number? PLEASE NOTE: MY PHONE NUMBER IS NOT ON THE INTERNET.


Dadsonval:
@Godsent, I dont know what u meant by this: Enm or anyone should please help this fellow, if you can, ttc race is not a one man's race, you need positive people aroun to achieve it. Thnks

WHAT I MEAN IS THAT THEY SHOULD RESPOND TO YOUR REQUEST QUICK, SO THAT YOU WILL NOT FEEL NOT WELCOMED OR FEELING AS IF YOU ARE ON YOUR ONW.

please in this ttc issue, do not go to any place for solution without telling your husband where you are going to, even if is medical doctor you want to see, is good for you to let your husband know, so that he can contribute in sharing idea as in what next. GOD BLESS US ALL.

“And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved...but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.”
(1 Samuel 30: 6)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

In our Focal Scripture, David’s men turned against him and spoke of stoning him; he lost his wives and children to the Amalekites, he was in distress, surrounded by men who were equally distressed and affected by the raid, and some men wanted to make him a victim of a collective misfortune.

When no one was willing to console David, he braced up and encouraged himself in the Lord his God. He didn’t find encouragement from people around him, and he looked inward to find it; he couldn’t find anyone to speak the right words to him, so he spoke those words to himself.

Sometimes, we are faced with situations and circumstances, where no one can encourage us. Sometimes, the people around us are as distressed and discouraged as we are, and cannot encourage us; sometimes, the people we expect encouragement from are people who don’t care about what is discouraging us.

Friend, when there is no one to encourage you, encourage yourself and move on. When people can't find the right words to console and placate you, encourage yourself. When people are not interested in speaking words of hope to you, speak words of hope to yourself. When encouragement is absent around you, find it within you.

David encouraged himself, and he led his men to recover what they lost. When you encourage yourself, you are simply preparing for recovery.

Encourage yourself when no one else can; encourage yourself when all hope is lost; encourage yourself against all odds, and you will pull through despite your challenges.

In Joshua 1 vs. 6, God said: “Be strong and of a good courage…”.

Prayer : Lord, give me grace to encourage myself when no one else can, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Have A Splendid Thursday.

“...but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.”
(1 Samuel 30: 6)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

When David was faced with the loss of his wives and children, and was threatened by his men with stoning, he encouraged himself in the Lord his God. David’s men were warriors under his command, but they turned against their commander. In military terms, they committed mutiny, but David still encouraged himself in the Lord.

The word ‘encourage’ as used in that scripture comes from the Hebrew word ‘chazaq’. Another meaning of ‘chazaq’ is ‘fortify’. So David fortified himself in the Lord. He was surrounded by men who were set to betray and stone him, and he fortified himself. There was a battle for recovery that needed to be fought, and David fortified himself.

Friend, when issues arise to weaken you, fortify yourself in the Lord. Strengthen yourself through fasting and prayers; fortify yourself by reading and confessing God’s word; fortify yourself by soaking yourself in God’s presence. Fortify yourself with midnight prayers; fortify yourself against the devices of the enemy; fortify yourself against the men who are ready to stone you.

If you are unfortified, enemies will make a mess of your destiny. If you are unfortified, you may face attacks that will reduce your destiny to rubbles. If you don't strengthen yourself through intense prayers, you may not withstand the attacks against you. If you are unfortified, you will be vulnerable to the enemy.

David fortified himself, and he fought back and recovered everything he lost. If you have been weakened by what happened to you, fortify yourself before you face another attack.

Fortify yourself, and you will repel the attacks of the enemy; fortify yourself, and you will fight back and defeat the enemy.

Prayer : Lord, give me grace to consistently fortify myself through prayers and the Word, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Have A Restful Saturday.

“And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.”
(1 Samuel 30: 6)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

In our Focal Scripture, after the loss of his wives and children and the wives and children of his men, David encouraged himself in the Lord his God. The word ‘encourage’ as used in that scripture is derived from a Hebrew word ‘chazaq’.

One of the meanings of ‘chazaq’ is ‘to be firm’. So David faced adversity, and he responded by increasing his firmness. David’s response to his challenge was laced with firmness.

Friend, in 2015, be firm. Be firm about your convictions and commitments; be firm about your resolutions and choices; be firm about the things you don’t want to do anymore; be firm about the changes you need to implement; be firm as you pursue the needed improvements in your life; be firm about relationships you don’t need anymore; be firm about attitudes you no longer wish to exhibit.

One thing is certain: lack of firmness will cause you to be swayed by the wind, and you will end up moving in any direction the wind blows. Lack of firmness will make you vulnerable to people around you who are firm in their own decisions and resolutions.

If you fail to be firm as you face your battles, you just might lose the battles you have the capacity to win; if you fail to be firm, you may take good decisions that you can’t act on.

David encouraged himself in the Lord, he got firm in response to the attack of the enemy, and he fought back and recovered all that he lost. Firmness will propel you to new heights and give you results that fear and cowardice will rob you of.

Firmness without crudeness is the way to go. Be firm.

Prayer : Lord, give me grace to be firm without being crude, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Have A Splendid Sunday.

“...but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.”
(1 Samuel 30: 6)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

When faced with the loss of his wives and children, as well as the threat of being stoned by his own men, David encouraged himself in the Lord his God. Like we earlier observed, the word ‘encourage’ comes from the Hebrew word ‘chazaq’, which also means ‘be urgent’. David responded to his challenge with some urgency.

Friend, be urgent, and act with urgency; when you take good decisions, don’t delay in implementing them; act fast, don’t waste time. If God gives you ideas that will move you higher, act fast and do something about them quickly. If God brings opportunities your way, take them quickly before someone else does. If God opens doors for you, walk in and take your place before the door is shut.

Discard procrastination; stop delaying yourself; stop postponing things you can do immediately. Don’t wait for things to become complicated before you take the actions you should have taken on time. Don’t allow the unique ideas and opportunities before you to be overtaken by events. Act fast, and be urgent in all your ways.

If David was not urgent in his response to the attack of the Amalekites, just maybe, they would have had enough time to escape with his wives and children. His failure to act fast would have cost him a lot. If you lack urgency in your approach to life, be careful, you just might be losing more than you are aware of.

Slow and steady will not always win the race; some urgency will make things happen fast and with ease. Urgency will take you to the top faster.

Prayer : Lord, I choose to act with urgency, in Jesus’ name!Amen

“7. And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech's son, I pray thee, bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David. 8. And David enquired at the LORD…” (1 Samuel 30: 7, cool

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

In Old Testament times, there were Kings and there were Priests. Kingship and priesthood were completely different. A priest was not expected to do the work of a king, and vice versa. There was some separation of powers, and everyone stayed in his lane.

In our Focal Scripture, David commanded Abiathar the priest to bring him the ephod, and he went on to enquire of the Lord. The ephod was handled by priests; enquiring of the Lord was a priest’s job; but after David encouraged himself in the Lord, he did a priest's job. He worked on himself, and he stepped into multiple roles.

Friend, if you work on yourself, you will step into multiple roles. If you improve yourself, you will do more than you are currently doing; if you fortify yourself spiritually through prayers and increased depth in God’s word, you will step into new roles in ministry; if you strengthen your competence, you will be amazed at how you will take over other people’s jobs and roles.

Multiple roles are for those who are willing to do more than what others are doing; multiple roles are for those who see beyond the limitations of their current roles and become good enough for bigger roles; multiple roles are not products of mere wishful thinking; you can only take up multiple roles if you become good enough for it, and if you become better than you are currently.

David worked on himself, and when he tried his hands on priestly duties, he got a response from God. God didn't reject David simply because priesthood was not his job. Dare to become better, work on yourself, and you will step into bigger roles.

Prayer Lord, give me grace for greater roles, in Jesus’ name!Amen
Have A Blissful Tuesday.

“7. And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech's son, I pray thee, bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought thither the ephod to David. 8. And David enquired at the LORD…” (1 Samuel 30: 7, cool

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

In our Focal Scripture, David asked Abiathar the priest to bring him an ephod, which he later used to enquire of the Lord. Using the ephod and enquiring of the Lord was a priest’s job. Seeing the wailing men whose wives and children were missing, one expected Abiathar to rise to the occasion, but he didn’t.

When Abiathar was not forthcoming in enquiring from God on the way forward, David took the ephod and enquired of God. Abiathar failed to do his work, and David got it done. Abiathar’s failure was David's opportunity; Abiathar’s failure in his job role led to a scenario where someone else did his job.

Friend, when you fail to play your role effectively, don’t be surprised if someone else takes your job from you while you are still available. If you fail in your assignment, be careful, others are waiting to step into your shoes. If you fail in your role as a spouse/parent, be careful, you might open the doors for a strange man/woman to play your role as a spouse/parent. Any incompetence you display in your career is a highway to irrelevance, obscurity and replacement.

David may not have been trained in priesthood, but he made an attempt in the face of Abiathar’s nonchalance and he got it right. If you take your roles for granted and carry out your assignments shabbily, someone else who may not even be as good as you might just step out and that would be the end of the party for you.

Being available whilst someone else takes over your role is a sign of irrelevance on your own part. You may be God’s best option, but not God's only option.Discern and be wise.

Prayer : Lord, give me grace to be effective in my role, in Jesus’ name!Amen
