Wisdom For The Day Devotional 14 August 2022 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Your Testimony Is Around The Corner
TOPIC: Your Testimony Is Around The Corner (TREM Devotional 14 August 2022)
“So those who planted their crops in despair will shout hurrahs at the harvest, So those who went off with heavy hearts will come home laughing, with armloads of blessing.” Psalms 126:5-6 (MSG)
MESSAGE:
We are in a time and season when the media is filled with news that makes you weep. There are tales of woe all across the nations of the world. Many no longer feel safe to move around even in the most secure environments because of the news of sudden attacks, terrorism, and kidnappings. Yet in the midst of all this, God is assuring us that it is our season of rejoicing.
I know in the past months; things may not have worked out as you expected. You may have fasted and prayed, and it appears that heaven has become brass and the earth iron. Child of God don’t be moved by the lies of the devil. Our text remains very true: “…those who went off with heavy hearts will come home laughing, with armloads of blessing.” Beloved, your season of blessing is here, it is your time to celebrate and nothing can stop it.
In view of this, I encourage you in the words of Apostle Paul: “So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has promised.” (Hebrews 10:35-36 NLT) You will not lose out. You will reap all that the Lord has promised you. So, don’t give up! And don’t give in!
Every day I hear mind-blowing testimonies of healing, deliverance, financial abundance, marriages, and the fruit of the womb amongst others. And I know that the same God who has done it for one will do it for you. For the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon Him. The very fact that He has done it before is proof that you will not be denied. God is too faithful to fail. Therefore, be determined never to let go of His love.
