Whatever a child of God is
passing through is temporary, the end is always good. For our light and momentary
troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all (2
Cor 4:17). Don’t let the devil steal your joy because of temporary setbacks,
afflictions, or unwanted situations. If he steals your joy, he has stolen your
strength. The bible says the joy of the Lord is your strength.
In 1 Samuel 30, the enemy
attacked Ziklag when David and his soldiers were away. They took away
everything including their wives and children. The people came to see an empty
city because the enemy had struck in his usual way. The people wept until there
was no strength in them. Can you imagine? The devil stole their things, they
were going to permit him to steal their joy and consequently their strength as
well. Until David came to his senses. He encouraged himself in the Lord, asked
Him what to do. God says, pursue, overtake and recover. At the end of the
story, they took back more than what the enemy took from them.
Beloved, come what may, keep your
joy, it is the source of your strength for total recovery.
Prayer for today: I recover my joy, I recover my strength, I
recover everything the devil stole in the name of Jesus.
